Parting out 1981 Silver 300SD

Unfortunately, I am parting out my 1981 Mercedes 300SD. It was hit from behind and would cost more to fix than it's worth so I'm parting it out. It's a silver 300SD with about 230K miles on it. It was hit on the left rear corner so the left rear fender, and rear bumper are smashed (both taillights are fine). Car never left socal, is rust free, and was well taken care of.

-Motor ran flawlessly
-Transmission worked fine (shifts could be a little rough sometimes, but that's normal for these cars)
-Rebuilt turbo
-Perfectly working AC with rebuilt compressor
-Black interior with no tears
-All electrical works except for antenna
-Bilstein HD shocks (~5,000 miles on them): $250
-Almost brand new H&R springs (~5,000 miles on them): $225 obo
-Depo glass one-piece headlights: $125
-Front bumper chrome is in great shape

Let me know what you're interested in. Email is the best way to get a hold of me. aesthetics82@hotmail.com

Do you still have the cruise control ecu, the r/f window motor, and l/r lower control arm for sale? Is the turbo pipe to the center pipe any good? Can you post a pic of the headlights? Give me prices and I'd love to get some nagging things fixed on my SD.

Thanks,

Carl

I don't know if the cruise control ecu works as my CC doesn't work on my car. Do you know of a way to test it? I have the right front window motor ($30). The headlights have been sold. I can't sell the control arm or turbo pipe as I need to be able to move the car under it's own power.
