forget the interior......bulbs are about the only thing....same with body....

Engine is the same basicly...the '79 not having EGR however...........will the trans fit? I don't know....I guess it might.

THe plus side is the '79 is a turbo diesel....however your 300TD is a wagon and you have a hydraulic pump for the rear self leveling suspension....that mount is cast into the head......adn you have a non-turbo engine which means the head won't swap.
