Hi, Luther.
SD's don't seem to bring NEARLYYY the money that 300TDt's do, even
exceptionally well kept low mileage examples. There's a 1982 with 158K
miles on it right now with an asking price of $6K, smooth runner, lots of
new parts, everything works, uses no oil, .

Here's a another W126 300SD for $1500 with a bad interior that runs well.

Here's a 1983 SD, also for $1500 which is what I paid for mine of the same
year.

Here's another 1982 300SD for $5600, always garaged, very nice original
paint and interior with no cracks, service records for last 2 years, one of
the nicest older Mercedes' in town, according to the seller.
