I only wish I could find that guy. And him.

Why do you have to sell your 300d??

Bah

Dont get rid of the 76! If you do..give it to ME! It will be a great stablemate to my current 76 W115 300D. W115's are THE BEST!

like i said maybe i won't. but i still need an answer to the question above, where is the bolt for loosening the belt? and what size wrench will I need? will this be easy?

things i know are wrong with the car:

driver side window gets stuck about halfway, but doesnt really seem broken, maybe it needs lubrication?

windshild wiper fluid doesnt spray, just sorta leaks out
master lock system does NOT work
no ac, no belt, but when I got car checked out was told compressor is good
antenna does not work, this i dont understand, because it is a new antenna, and is hooked up. perhaps the cord for the power is bad?
driver side seats worn out

also im confused is the 76 a 115 or 123? the haynes maule has it as a w123

thats about it

whats cool

good mpg (havent filled up in three weeks)
solid metal
only 107,xxx miles
its a diesel!!

plan on getting a oil change next week,
