Hello,
I have access to a 1980 380 SL convertible and will be parting the car. It is a compete car with no title. If you need any specific part please email me and offer a fair price for the part. The car was donated to a charity and it will be destroyed as a fire training vehicle soon. Basically set on fire and trainees put it out. A real shame.
So if you need anything let me know. This is not my type of vehicle but will salvage anything to save another 380 SL. The car is Silver with blue interior.

Well that’s stupid – what kind of moron would set an r107 on fire for training? Find a honda or something to set on fire.

Geez…

I agree, but sitting next to it are the normal Honda's , Acura, Toyota's, etc. Most cars are donated to the training facility or police impounds that have not been claimed. I saved a 95' Alfa 164LS with 55k miles a few years ago from the torch. But cant save this complete car. Just save some parts.

So what should I pull from the car? I was thinking the tail and head lights, grill. Any engine parts or computers worth saving?

Thanks, John

I suppose inside trim and other interior parts should be saved for other r107 owners restoring their cars. I just can’t see anyone in his right mind lighting up a roadster with its two seats, classic body, and star in the grill. Perhaps the previous owner is to blame for not disposing of it properly. Perhaps he did not know this would happen to the car, who knows? The exterior trim pieces was well, door handles, headlight and taillight assemblies, that sort of thing. [V]

Whoa! That's criminal!

Any interior trim pieces in good shape (especially the wood), any chrome and OOOH! VISORS!

If you do it, I need a windhield washer reservoir/tank (PO took it out???)

Let me know how much for the tank.
