You simply can't imagine how many pm's I've received concerning parts from Scar. I had to go into panic private message box maintenance. My memory is so poor I had a lot of saved messages, and it filled up fast!
I'm doing my best to answer everybody back, and on duplicate requests I will simply defer to the one who inquired first.
Poor little Scar didn't have that much to offer in the first place, as it's engine was the main draw....
I will attach pics of the front 1/4 panels. They are not very good. Actually, they have rot behind bumper area, but the part back behind tires is really good. Go figure. Hood has been spoken for, as has manual sunroof. Tranny is pending.....

Today I was going to remove the drive shafts and maybe the shifter. I pulled the exhaust system [in one large long piece] and then somehow shifted work to inside the car. {wandering around in a state of OCD I guess }
I pulled the console and the dash. The dash of a 240 is much different than a 300D or 300TD. Those manual controls like to hang on! My piece behind dash that hold the 3 knobs is not broken as many get, but it appears to be riveted in place. I feel a drill in my future.....
Got the ignition cylinder pulled, front driver seat of course, which is pretty much crap. Good hardware for where the seats attach to the floor, as sometimes those get rusted.
I sure do enjoy disassembling these cars. There is an odd relaxation to it. I don't think it would be the same at the junk yard. My trips to the bathroom are shorter. [and cleaner!]
Darkness and mosquitoes chased me inside.
