Call center for life enrichment and see if they want them. We just donated 2 vehicles to them in the last 6 months. The last one needed lots of work, but they are willing to fix and use. At least then you get a tax write off. (You can write off their value as a legal donation). AND someone that may not be able to afford a vehicle gets a hand out also.........

Thanks for the info APS. I am into the restoration of a 1985 Mercedes 300TD turbo diesel wagon. Some parts are a little hard to find. Most yards don't want to fool with Mercedes because they think only high rollers own a Mercedes. Not true, my wagon cost 32,000 new in 1985. I bought it two years ago for 4,000 and have put lots of miles on it. How many american built 1984 cars are on the road? Diesel fuel is also a little cheaper to run at 26 MPG than gas. No spark plugs, coil, or other ignition stuff to screw up. Built like a tank and very reliable. Not too pretty right now though......
I know this is a very old thread but, do you still have your W123? If so hare's a few somewhat local places I've found in just the past 2 weeks.Bonehead said:Does anyone know of a salvage yard within a hundred miles that has a mercedes 123 body in it ? 123s are 1970-1985. Thanks for any help.

Don't know the name, but they have to be in the phonebook, and if you ask REALLY nicely, maybe somebody that goes by there every day going to/from work may be willing to get the name for you.
