Look what I found at the junkyard today

Look what I found,

1977 240D with euro headlights, maple yellow paint and a full tobacco interior that is in pretty good shape. Manual windows but the front passenger side regulator is the only one that works good.

I pulled the headlights and few interior parts. If anyone needs anything let me know.

The dash has a few cracks and it would be okay for a daily driver but not if you want to make it look 100% new.

Here are some pics:

You didn't save the super-80's cassette player?? I think the earlier w123 dash looks nicer with the more leather-like grain.

That pick-up line doesn't work as well as you'd think it does.

Wow, nice lights. How much did you pay for them?

I wish I could find some on a car, that'd be so awesome. I have a set of the "newer" 126 lights, like what came on an SDL....I may put those on mine soon....they look pretty good....better than the ghetto early us spec lights thats for sure.
