Lovely. Had a '82 240D manual, loved it, gave it to mom in '84 who drove it until 2004 & retired it with 86K miles. Light Ivory, crank windows & manual roof, pd $15K new in '82. All it knew how to do was run. TFS
Cool story I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos.
He is known as Rollguy at peachparts forum.

Awesome !!! Very cool John !!!

Sweet. Very! TFS

Hi...Great video thanks.....do you have a link to download a free copy of the FSM ? regards Brett
Yes if you go to my website and go to the download section there is a link to download the 617 manual.
@@woodsandbarclay Many thanks......for some reason my 662 manual does not have any detail like your 617 manual does about the injector
Incredible condition for a 18 year old car
Thank you yes this car was amazing!
Antichrist, lol XD What a beauty!
Hahahahaha
I just bought the same exact car on yesterday a 1986, with 202k on it but also covered and garaged for the last 13 years.
Congratulations!
Those are some fantastic cars! Great Job! May I ask what the website is for those door striker kits from Thailand? All I can find is hard plastic ones and they don't work well at all. Thank You! Keep up the GREAT work and vids!
Shoot me an email I would have to look up the website that I can respond to your email later this week. John@woodsandbarclay.com
Have you sold it ?
Yes this car sold 2 years ago if you would like to see our inventory I recommend subscribing for updates on our website and looking at the inventory page. www.woodsandbarclay.com
Great looking car.
Thank you
Wow. 70 mph in a 240D! The ones I've driven must not have been set up correctly :-) And would never get to 80 mph on the flat.
This is a very good one! She runs 70 no problem!
I’m watching the series to prep for 1983 300sd work. Do you have a video replacing the rear trailing arms? I have a couple rusty ones. A truck frame shop here (detroit) can weld repair them both at $1200. But I figure I’d replace them and in doing so will access other parts to consider.
Sorry I do not have a video for replacing the rear trailing arms.
Nice old girl, living in Australia it's a little difficult for me to have a look😂
👍😎
Beautiful John!
Thank you
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

What tire treatment product does Scott use?
You don't have to use special fancy products just grab some tire shine from your local auto parts store. We are both big fans of Maguire's products.
سيارة من آقوا السيارات في العالم ٠انها في حالة جيدة جدا يعجبني هذا الموديل 123. و موديل124
Thank you I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos.
Looks like the original Bosch fog lights too. You should take it down to Sandy Springs and make MBUSA make you an offer!
Unfortunately MB USA doesn't give a s*** about these old cars. All they care about is selling the new pieces of junk. Mercedes is not the same company as it used to be. :(
@@woodsandbarclayCan’t disagree but they should put that car in their atrium.
Yeah that would be cool if they did!
@@woodsandbarclay If I had any contacts there, I'd make it happen.
@@woodsandbarclayAbsolutely!
Once you get up to speed and "on plane" these really are pleasant highway vehicles. About the only real threat to the longevity of the 123 and 126 diesels will be parts availability.
Parts availability is not a threat they made hundreds of thousands of these vehicles and parts are readily available. As soon as they stop becoming available the market will step in and start reproducing them exactly how it happened for classic American muscle cars. For example you can build a 1968 Camaro from scratch every single nut and bolt and part is available in the aftermarket. We are already starting to see this happen with classic Mercedes.
Amen!
Do you disclose what it sold for?
I would have to go back and check my records but you're welcome to call me and we can discuss. Contact info is on the website.
I am seeing a wide range of prices for similar vehicles. One seller is asking $44,000 for a ‘91 with 26,000 miles and another wants $24,000 for a ‘91 with 29,000.
Yes prices for classic cars are all over the board. Each car is totally unique and two of the exact same models can be tens of thousands of dollars apart in price.
What a cool classic. Excellent point on the environmental impact.
😎👍
Nice rear seat headrest option!
Yes that is very rare first time I've ever seen it!
What AC system do you prefer, the simpler 240D or the newer style auto clima ? Wonderful car! Never get tired to see this cars getting put back to like new (or better) condition
Either one of them work fine. I really don't have a preference if the air is cold then I'm good.
Amen to that! These classic Mercedes infinitely repairable.
👍😎
And even so, many of these have been parted out and junked for small things like fender benders and other mechanical things that could have been repaired for a reasonable amount. Unfortunately, many older mercedes have fallen into the hands of people without any appreciation for them.
Yeah that's the truth!
Just found this. An early John Woods joint (to steal a line from Spike Lee). Good stuff!
Cool, thanks! 👍
It would be nice to see a list of the parts that were changed with links to those parts.
This video is about a valve adjustment and Hood pad installation. There are no parts other than the hood pad and the glue. So I'm not sure what you're talking about.
@@woodsandbarclay the fuel primer you installed, the switch to a different pre fuel filter, the parts replace on the throttle.
@@erico1603 I don't know the part number offhand but you can just go on Google and type in 300D primer pump and it will pop right up. 300D pre fuel filter and it will also pop right up.
@@woodsandbarclay I tried to adjust my Bowden cable the way you did but mine doesnt spring forward the way yours does. Maybe I need a new spring and a new rubber boot part
@@erico1603 is your throttle return spring is missing or broken then yes you'll need a new one. However most likely the little lever that the Bowden cable attaches to is on the wrong side of the tab. There's a little tab the lever bumps up against and if it's on the wrong side of that lever it won't return.
That’s a Beautiful Wagon 🙌👏 you are the “Man” Awesome job 👌👏🇺🇸
Thank you I put in a lot of hard work to make this wagon as nice as possible!
Where do you find the rubber seals for the front and rear windows of the C123? I am from Brazil and is imposssible to find it here.
I've never had to replace the rear seal but the front seal I just ordered from Mercedes.
😍😍😍
😎👍
This car is a beauty ❤
Yes it's an extremely nice car.
Nice
Thanks
I just noticed the armrests on the front doors are different for the driver and passenger. Another weird Mercedes quirk - I'm sure there is some reason behind it.
Yeah they have all kinds of interesting design features like this. Everything is 100% intentional.
What happened to the ‘83 300 that you finished last week? You had a “coming soon” caption for that car on your web site for a couple of weeks, and then it was taken down once you posted the last vid on YT. Thanks.
Gentleman actually came by the shop and purchased the vehicle before I could even do the final walk around or photos.
Pls does w123 300T have AC?
Yes all of the cars I sell have air conditioner. You can see this demonstrated in the other videos of this car if you go to the website. www.woodsandbarclay.com
Since you know these so well : For someone that would like to make their 300D interior quieter like an SD, what would you advice be? I did hoodpad so far... :)
Well a 300D really will never be as quiet as an SD because an SD has way more insulation. What you could do is remove all of the interior and lay down insulation all throughout the car and then re-install the interior. We use dynamat to do this on an old muscle cars.
@@woodsandbarclay that was indeed my second idea. Insulate the floor and doors. Do you know if the roof is insulated on the SD? Because if you hit the roof on a w123 from the outside, it resonates a lot.
I have never checked by removing the headliner but I'm sure there is insulation on the roof. That is where all the heat from the sun hits.
@@woodsandbarclay marvelous informations. Thank you for always sharing your knowledge with us. It's invaluable and it helps us keep these cars on the road ❤️
I have a black 300sd !all I want is the motor and power train ! No rust willbe parting out if anyone need reasonable parts!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What city and state are you in?
I’m curious how much it sold for and hope to own a pristine ‘90-‘91 version. Were there any differences between them? I think the 30-60 time is more relevant as who starts at zero when needing to get up to highway speed? Great video!
I'm sorry but offhand I don't remember what this one sold for I would have to go back through my records. Please feel free to shoot me an email.
Do you guys get a lot of SL 600s that have the biodegradable wiring harnesses which are now discontinued apparently?
No we specialize in the diesel Mercedes we have only had one 600 in the shop. There's a gentleman in California that rebuilds wiring harnesses by hand and if you have one of those cars just look them up on eBay.
My late father owned an 80 Manila beige/palomino 240D 4-speed. We always said that 0 to highway speed was measured with an abacus.
These are definitely "around town" cars. The bigger 300SD and 300D models are your highway cruisers
How cool of a find!
Yes this car is very rare and incredible condition! There are several more videos on the website you should check out.
My 1979 240D is similarly equipped with manual everything and optional factory rear seat headrests (minus the trunk triangle and seat lumbar). I've never seen any other U.S. 240D's with factory rear seat headrests and only one U.S. 300D with factory headrests on BaT. I'm curious if MB USA can tell you how rare that car is.
I doubt Mercedes has the production numbers based on options but it is definitely extremely rare in this setup.
