Manual HVAC, roof and windows are electric. Best thing so far is the differential change. From a 3.69 to 3.07. About a 10 to 12 mile per hour difference at cruising speed. Michael E.

Sounds like a great project. Will the final car have manual HVAC? Windows and sunroof? Max Dillon Charleston SC Apr 11, 2020 8:54:31 AM Michael Esh via Mercedes : > Phase one is complete.

[MBZ] 300D Engine transfer to 240D
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 checking other components and replacing as needed. Next phase is removing transmission from 2nd donor car. (83 300D). I’ve been told by several that the 240D transmission won’t hold up to the additional torque of the turbo engine. I will need a new/used exhaust system. Does anyone have any information on a used stainless system that is for sale.
