Junkyard Alert Thread
 

Post any junkyard finds here.

I hit the yards this weekend:

There are around 10 W123s, 2 W108s, two W126s A W115 and a W116 and the Damascus OR Pull-A Part.

There are two W126s a W123 Coupe and a W123 sedan in the Foster Rd Portland OR U-pull it.

There is a W123 and a W115 in the Vancouver LKQ yard.

HUH!?

I called all over the area about 2 months ago and found nothing. What is your source for info. Thanks for the heads up!!

He said he "hit the yards" ie he just went and looked.

Was the W115 a 300D or some type of diesel? Does it have a manual transmission?

Was the W116 a Euro model? I want manual windows and manual heater controls.

If so, I may be willing to make the drive.

there are a few w123's in the LKQ in south Tampa. one has a beautiful blue interior except for the dash pad of course.

there is also a 72 350sl with euro bumpers, but some tool ruined the front one because he couldnt get it off of the car. I would have took the rear but the trunk was locked and i didnt want to pry it open. it had a soft top fram and hard top but the car is very rough, bumper were good though at least the rear one now anyway

many, many sdl and sel. and 190E's I pulled a 5 speed swap from one of them total $235 and 2 hrs work (plus 2hrs waiting for the rain to stop)

Fifteen W123 wreckers in your local area! What a travesty!
I only see a couple at a time here.

Usually it is nearly imposable to find these cars in the yards.

Luckily most were rusted out or crashed.

S.O.B... I coulda really used the chrome trim, panel off the top of that front bumper, and that drivers side bracket. . .I hate when people damage stuff due to not knowing how or not having the correct tools to pull a part, shame. . . (same goes for the guy who damages body panels by using a screwdriver to remove the star off a benz and inevitably destroys both parts)

One of them is a yellow 240d, auto tranny, fairly complete. The other, I believe, is 280 gasser and has been there a bit longer.

There is also a 190d at the far end the has only been there a short while but got stripped waaaay quick. Looks like someone took a hammer to the block in several places to get parts off :confused::eek:

Thanks mac2, I was not paying too close attention to the W115s. I forgot to mention the 300D at the Vancouver yard is an '85, so somebody should snag the 2.88 rear and speedometer.

The euro did have the euro rear bumper w/o the rubber on it. was in fair cond.

you should pull the column shift from that W123.. it would be neat to have

8 W123's in Pull a Part in New Orleans. I got an M type IP from it. It still has the euro bumpers on it. Since I'm here on business, I couldn't justify getting and shipping those.

OK I'll bite, what does LKQ stand for? It doesn't ring a bell.

I agree! Get that setup, I may even want it.
