Possible 84 300D parts car in Middle TN

[DieselClan]

A few months ago I got a new neighbor and he happened to drive a W123 300D. He had it a few weeks and all of a sudden I never noticed it again.

Well today I was out detailing the CDI and he approached me asking if I'd be interested in that car as a parts car. Apparently the motor bent a rod and he's not interested in fixing it. He said he was going to send it to the crusher unless I wanted it for what they offered him (I think he said $400)

I would love to buy it and keep it but unfortunately I don't have the space for another parts car so I figured I'd post it up here in case anyone nearby may be interested in it.

I don't know much about the car except a few details he told me today because I was curious. It has blue interior, dark blue exterior and is an '84 according to what he told me.

I may know of a person who would want the blue seats if in good shape but I don't know the condition of anything ATM. I know I could possibly use the tranny as the one in my high mileage '85 is going out.

I can post more info as I get it. If I get request for parts please be patient as I don't know much about it...

Thanks
