It might have been more fun if the 240D were manual, but this way you can
just build a 300D in a 240D donor body. Every part you need should be on
the 300D. I might be wrong, but I think the 240D auto is mechanically the
same, might have lower hydraulic pressures. 240D box with the valve body

Would any one have the black part that surrounds the brass post in the attached
picture. I believe it is damaged as I can get the antenna to run the aerial up
and down but it appears the part is missing some teeth and doesn’t work /
engage correctly.

Phase one is complete. I have removed the donor engine from the 84 300D with
a bad transmission. I am in the process of replacing the the front seal and

Next phase is removing transmission from 2nd donor car. (83 300D). I’ve been

Does anyone have a better suggestion for mending small cuts in

replaced the 240D drive train with a used engine, transmission and rear end out

added power and higher speed drivability.

What about something like this for a youngest daughters boo who is looking for
transportation back-and-forth from work? And, he wants to learn mechanic-y
things. With this be something good to start with? What things are sketchy
about the crap class? If it has been well-maintained, with
14.89/gallon since I bought it. It’s gotten as high as 19/gallon but the
majority of the driving is surface streets.

Mine's a 350. Should be called a 370.
What mpg does a 500 get, 14-16 or 16-18?

Ah, the cam-switch antenna. I actually had some spare cams, but there's no way
I
could find them. What I do know is that the later electronic antennae are
nicer to have
anyway. I'd be looking for good used to refurbish. If you can still run yours
by switch,
that's not too bad of a stopgap.

No riots out here in the country wither, unless yo count my wife going on a

Speaking of eggplant, I verplaneted again this year and have over 100

I bet I'm the only guy here, or nearly anywhere, who has programmed
the 9900 processor (in assembly language) _not_ using that TI machine!
We had one of their development systems in school. I also got a year on
that 029 keypunch. I used it for FORTRAN and Pascal.
I went to the gym today. They reopened yesterday. They had moved some of
the machines farther apart, and had a limit of 4 people in the
sauna. Lots of disinfectant spray and paper towels for wiping things
down. Pretty good number of people there. Nobody was wearing masks.
