What would 1977 300D be worth?

What would a 1977 300D be worth? Won't go into reverse, but in good shape otherwise. Has 67000 original miles and is silver in color.

I paid $2200 for my 78 300D with 97,000 miles on it. A very clean 2 owner car.

This car has been sitting for about two years. A couple had the car he drove it for awhile then parked it for few years then got it out and drove ever now and then. Then he died two years ago his wife doesn't drive it at all. It won't go into reverse so, I'm Just wondering about what it will cost to fix that. Someone told me those transmissions were high.

I'm wondering if that transmission isnt also affected by the B2 piston failure deal. If it is, I think one of the advanced stages of failure is loss of reverse.
Might just need a new B2 piston. Do a search for it here. IF that is it, then you could possibly replace that yourself without having to part with a limb.
