I found a cheap 300D around were I live. It is a 1978 300D with 1,500 miles on it. It has a rebuilt engine. Got it for $1,500.00. Just have a few questions to ask.

1. I have some Silicone Paste. Should I use this on the windowshield seals? Inside and outside?

2. It seems that maybe the glowplug relay might be dead. When I put in the key and turn it to "2" the glow light goes on for about a second then goes off.

3. I have the famous vacuum door locks. Does the trunk unlock and lock with the vacum system. Mine doesn't seem to work, any ideas?

4. The transmission seems to be slow at down shifting from first to second it sounds like the engine is going blow up! Is this how it works?

Thanks for all your help (Will post a picture of it later)
P.S. It doesn't look great becuase the clear coat is coming off on the drivers door and the front panel near the bumper.
