Possible 1973 280se 4.5 part out. Any interest?

[gingerkid]

Bottom price is $2500 not including the new injectors (old injectors would be included). It seems I could get at lest that parting it out. There is easily $1000 in new parts on/off of the car (not including the new injectors).

I'm going to spend some more time investigating the rust around passenger side firewall/framerail tonight, this is the only area that is scaring me.

Hopefully she will live. I inspected the paint very thoroughly and as far as I can tell the paint is all original except for the passenger side front fender this appears to have been replaced. Go figure... that is the problem area for the body!

I decided against the rust repair. I've started selling parts, already have had a few successful transactions!

So far I have sold:
-restored air cleaner
-distributor
-driver side mirror
-oil cooler with the new oil lines
-dash wood under windshield

ALL of the exterior chrome/shiny pieces are in excellent shape I would rate 9+ out of 10 on most all of the parts. For those that have inquired, I have not yet pulled the Becker radio and there is a "line" of interested buyers.

Let me know what you need!

Do the rear of the seat backs have those corner caps like the W109 do? I would be interested in those as well as the door caps ( got your email about the photos for the door caps) and the two flat plate type wire covers in the trunk.

thanks.
thanks.

Doesn't look like mine does anyways. I think we should change your name to "cap"ster

Sorry to hear you are having to part out this car, does look very good in the above picture.

I'm thinking of a few bits I'd like depending on price

- The bracket which holds the battery
- Washer bottle
- What is the top of the Dash like?
- Lower dash panel which is in the footwells
- What type of shifter does it have?
- Drivers side trunk trim
- rear side markers if the red is not faded

I'm based in the UK, but have a cousin in NY who you can send the bits to if you are unwilling to post overseas.

PM me some pictures if you can please.
