How many 190D's do you have now? How many turbo models? Did you buy Philly's with the blown head?

That is the only combo I think could get me in a W201. What are the 6 cars you have that you are trying to unload?

84 euro 300D four speed

several SD's no engine/transmission installed, but available

the 84 240D that had the 5 speed in it... interior perfect, body nearly rust free, but for hole in driver's c pillar

remains of 85TD euro unfederalized vehicle... sanden a/c installed, with vintage air ebaporator/blower

I've begun hauling stuff to the scrapper.

ive asked you a couple times if youd be willing to cut a body section off that wagon before you scrap it and sell it to me in a few other threads, but you never respond.

any chance you could sawsall off a bit of it?
im looking for a piece of the right rear pillar next to the gate.

I get that sometimes with forum members, not specifically Vstech. Maybe they have a bad memory?

Steering the thread more off topic, got any spare 5 speed gearboxes? And is that 1985 TD euro a turbo engine?

Wonder how much shipping a 617 is to New Zealand...
