Yesterday a mechanic friend of mine gave me a boxful of old Mercedes shop manuals. I dug through them hoping to find one for my 83 300D. No luck. They are mostly for gasoline MBs from 1959 through the mid '70's. I will gladly give any or all of them to interested parties (only cost is postage). If interested, get in touch and I'll send a list of the models covered.

Happen to have anything for the 78 sl? If so shoot me an email. Thanks

Boy oh boy, response has been good. I'm not as well versed in what all these numbers mean, but when I have a little time (not today) I will sort through the books and the requests and contact everyone that I think these manuals will help. Wish there had been one for my car in there. Anyway, in the next day or so I'll do my homework and contact each of you.

I would be willing to buy the 114 manual.

I'd be interested in a W108 manual (or at least the front half of one)
