84 300D owner's manual?

Just picked up my FIRST Benz, what a beauty! I have poked around the internet and don't see an owner's manual for my car. I had a BMW motorcycle once, but it had an owner's manual (and not as many things to figure out!).

If you do not have one, could anyone possibly point me to a source?

Thanks,

Connie

I always get them with the benzes I purchase, but for owners in your position I have heard that the dealer is actually a good bet. IIRC the price is< or = $20.

E-Bay has them frequently and the Classic Center in Irvine too.

A non-E-Bay source is Books4cars.com...
http://books4cars.com/result3.asp?finddesc=300d

While the cost is more than typically found on E-Bay, it comes without all the hassles and headaches. The above link takes you straight to all their literature offerings for the '84 300D.

BTW... Welcome to the Mercedes Diesel Club! It's a great motorcar.
