Okay, folks, I am planning a trip to Lafayette, IN. My route has not been decided, so there is some wiggle room.

Option 1: I-55 to I-57 to I-74
Option 2: takes me northward across western TN to visit towns like Covington, Ripley, Dyersburg, Union City, then into KY to visit Fulton, Mayfield, Benton, then across KY Lake Dam, Madisonville, then into IN to visit Evansville, Vincennes, Carlisle, Terre Haute, Crawfordsville, and to Lafayette.

I will be driving my BIG Dodge Diesel truck. It has that 8 foot bed; plenty of room.

I have two seats of w126 front seats out of a 300SDL. One set is Palomino in good condition. The second set is Black in fair condition; no rips or tears; just more worn places and some motors are missing on the passenger side as I recall.

Asking $100 for the Palomino seats; this is for both of them
Asking $80 for both the Black seats.

Okay. My next road trip is next weekend. Delivery is possible on some big items. Any reasonable offer will be accepted. The following stuff is headed to the scrap pile in the near future.

I have a good set of front w126 Palomino 300SDL seats.
I have some w123 alloy bundts
I have some w123 hubcap friendly steelies and some hubcaps.
I also have a w108 250CE engine and transmission ending soon on ebay.
I also have a w126 300SD aluminum trunk.

Tom --- do you want the w126 flat face wheels and a couple of 14inch steelies? You got them coming!

Yes please. We should go through my garage and see what you might want to take with you too.

Here too if you want a load for your return trip.

Do you have any 124 stuff?

I don't have any big w124 stuff.

The 300SD aluminum hood needs a home as well as a bunch of alloy bundts and the hubcap friendly wheels I have.

So, who wants a set of very RARE 14 inch w126 flat face wheels? I have 4 in the back of my truck located in Kentucky.

As T_Walgamuth will verify; the rubber has very good thread. As I recall, there are 2 pairs of matching tires.

Tom? Did we check all 4 of the wheels? Were they all 14inch?

Tom and I were dumbfounded. I guess these came off early w126's, huh? I didn't know MB made a 14inch w126 flatface wheel. Neither did Tom. It was pleasure meeting you, Tom. Thanks for the I-65 advice.

Good Night.
