1987 300D for TheDon
 
I saw this one on cars.com recently. I don't feel like making the drive, so go get it, Joe!

Thanks - I've edited the link, and as I type this, it's still working.

In case my new link becomes invalid later, here are the pictures in all their glory:

The custom grill kills it for me.

Perhaps a colormatched oem grill would look better

If it were closer, not in a salt-air environment, and the interior isn't butchered, for the price it sure seems worth the effort to make it right again. I'll bet it's not leather either.

I could probably talk it down... a lot...


but I don't want a 87 300D.. working on a 602 killed it for me..

I'd rather have it without that body kit...

I'm more in the market for a W126 now.. an SD would be nice... or an SDL with a 617

Bmw Suck?
 
Either a W123, 124 or 126 makes a good Diesel choice IMO. Pick the one best for you.

All of them saw service as taxis in Germany.


I noticed that you people in Florida sure have a rich and wonderful plethora of personalized license plate designs if you wanted to get them. Pretty amazing.

I recently put in application for one, that would say BMW SUK but everyone here thinks the Calif DMV censors won't let that one get issued. I already paid the fee for it.

Nowadays the word "sucks" seems pretty tame. I wouldn't think they'd care.

I've seen a Michigan plate on a car that said "BMW SUK".....so....I guess we just let things slide more around here. ;)

You may have already found it, but here's the index of Florida specialty license plates - and here's a report on the revenue generated from them.

Thats right out of a section 8 complex.:D

If you could get it for $500 so you can remove all the crap, provided it drives well. The front bumper looks like its mostly bondo.

Holy raid on Kmart.

Would have to find a bunch of parts to replace that crap but it could be nice. Low miles and all (if the odo is rite)

oldiesel 02-14-2008 07:17 PM

Somebody sure did ugly up the front of that poor car. My $.02 Don
