Newish 300TDT owner. Hi.

Hello gents,

I bought an 83 300TD about 6 months ago. And with help from your archived posts I have been able to get it running after sitting for about 12 years. Runs good for 182k miles.

I've replaced the B2 piston, trans fluid and filter, flushed brakes, coolant,oil,filter,battery and some odd and end minor repairs with what I've learned from you all. These last few months driving "Grandpa" have taught me to slow down !!! I DD a 400whp Evo IX and own several Supras with much more hp than this old guy.

Here's the thing, with the snow we had here in Md I see that he has a leak. A water leak. Might be clogged sunroof drains.

I can't keep him inside my garage, that's where the Supras reside. So sad to say I'm gonna let him go.

Blue exterior, Palomino interior, no dash cracks or interior tears. Just needs a good cleaning. And small repairs. I screwed with the VCV and Bowden cable b4 I knew it was the B2 piston. So he flares 3-4.Gauges don't light up. Sure it's the dimmer. No rust everything is there. AC, OE cassette, pwr ant. Been repainted was gold.

Want him to go to someone that respects these old classics. Question is. How do I post pix of him here? Maybe he can find a new owner here?
If I'm in the wrong section,mods please move, and I apologize.

Thanks

Brian

PS: I'm known as $9ktt on the Supraforums, Supramania and CelicaSupra forums. Just so you know I'm not a scammer or noob.

PSS: Added pix. I'll add interior ones tomorrow. Will come with CLK and Bundt wheels.

Nice looking wagon, I love the blue, and I see you do too! Closely resembles my truck.

I'd be all over it if A) I had space, B) it was closer.

I'm sure you'll be able to find someone here who will take excellent care of it.

What's your price? Nice wagon.
Have you tried the W123 Facebook group? Lots of enthusiasts there.

Thanks,

I was part of the W123 FB group, but for months I wasn't allowed to post. So I left. I'm asking $5k for members here. I have it on FB marketplace for $7k.
This is a RUST free wagon. Everything is there. Just need some TLC and correct paint job. Jambs are still champagne.

Really want someone here to be his next owner. Not some kid that's going to tear him up.
