Thinking of parting out my 92 400E
- Thread starter jgt157
- Start date
I have a 92 400e project black/palomino which needs quite a bit, v interestrd
Where can I get the color combo information for you guys? The paint is white and it has the blueish interior and gray lower exterior panels. Location is in Willow Spring, NC 27592.
Price? I"m not sure at this point as I'm not sure of it's worth. It's not drivable right now. Engine ran when I parked it. I had the trans replaced with a used one. Original rear end. It has new shocks in the rear (bilstein). I have the strut mounts I was going to use to replace the ones in the car which are bad.
Options: I"m not sure what options it came with. The original radio was replaced with an aftermarket radio. It has a/c, power steering, power windows, power door locks, power seats, automatic trans, power antenna that doesn't work any longer. I have a replacement antenna I was going to put in it.
The shop I used to replace the trans started the car to test the trans and a small electrical fire occurred under the hood on the drivers side. I never got it fixed. The upper harness was replaced and I had the lower harness rebuilt (guy in GA did it for me). I'll add more as I it comes to mind.
Found the title and the VIN is WDBEA34E0NB681748.
Any other info you guys need?

Looks like near 200kmi?
I would also be interested in both of the cats and front crossover pipe if still in nice condition
I think the odometer says 176k or there about.Thanks for the VIN! Link below decodes to Arctic White with gray interior, standard equipment only, no options (no ASR, no bun warmers, etc).

It's dark and overcast today. I'll take the pics when the weather improves and post them.
I am looking for front bumper. How was the wood inside? Especially center console? I believe I emailed you but no response? How far are you in the breakdown now?
Thanks,
Michael
Thanks,

FYI, this is an aftermarket antenna with a kit from Mercedes source that makes it work with the 400e. Let me know if you're still interested or not. The lower harness is still available.
Sorry, but I've been extremely busy here at home here recently and haven't been able to give this much time. Please be patient.

Center console wood is not in good shape. The rest of the wood is in decent condition. Front bumper is good with the exception of the plastic skirt underneath.
LH module and base module are available.
Center console wood isn't any good. Most of the rest of the wood is in decent shape.
I am not interested in trying to remove the cats and crossover pipe. I don't think the cats are any good anyhow.
Anodized trim is in good shape. I'll have to read up on how to remove them so I don't damage them. Also, I've been very busy here at home recently. I'll try to keep you posted.
Are there 2 people interested in the lower harness?
I have them, but what are they worth?
I think the best way to handle things at this point for me is to have you guys pm me and tell me the parts your interested in buying and what you're willing to pay for the part. At that point I can determine if parting the car is going to be worth it or if I just should scrap the car.

That's the problem I have with my bumper too, the lower skirt is messed up. Ok, what are you thinking about for the wood trim? How many pieces are good and what would you price them at?
Thanks!
I'm interested in your lower cladding/bodywork clips as I hear NLA and I might be in for a repaint...
@brinksman, I think the 400E lower cladding is different than a E500E. At least some of it. I'm sure the clips are probably the same. Door panels might be the same but the E5E is lower. I guess it would depend on what you are looking for.
Can some of the Wolf Whisperers here weigh in...are the clips the same? @gsxr ?
Clips should all be the same, and should be available new.
Is there a particular clip / part number you heard is NLA? I true, I'd like to know about it!
I'm probably mistaken...when reading about people that've repainted I thought those were the clips being spoken of as NLA...what should I be on the hunt for @gsxr ?Clips should all be the same, and should be available new.
