Guys I have located a transmission for my 300TDT from a parts car with a rebuilt engine. If anyone needs any parts please let me know before this guy has the car crushed. The donor car is a light blue 1980 300TDT wagon with 116,000 miles on the chassis.





Cardude,

Hey Cardude,

I have a 1980 300TD wagon and I'm *at the very least* looking for a rear bumper. the connection between my bumper and the supports have rusted/rotted away. I would also be interested in certain pieces of the wagon door: the interior panelling, some of the lock assembly pieces, etc. Sometimes I think of finding a cheap parts car.

Please give me whatever information you can so that I can find out about the car.

Thanks,
Floydo

Whats the shape and cost of the headlight doors?
Additionally the cowl vent covers?

Whats the shape and cost of the headlight doors? The headlights are in great shape. Send me your zip and I can see how much with shipping.
Additionally the cowl vent covers?
Not sure what you mean,




Cardude,

Zip code is 76034
The cowl vents are the black plastic or plastic chromed units just in front of the windshield and just behind the hood.. This is where the fresh air gets into the cab. One of mine took a hit the other day with the severe thunderstorms we had. We had golfball size hail here at the house.
Mine are black plastic. I took them off a 80 240D that I had. If I recall correctly they are normally chrome on the wagon. As long as the "chrome" is ok or black is ok I would be interested.
To remove the units look closely at the unit. You will see small squares on the top of the units. You remove the center spreader that is in the center of the square. And then the square should come out. Then the unit will come out.
Dave

PS the headlight doors are just the clear plastic that is around the headlight bulbs. Not the entire headlight assembly
