A sad day

[colin mee]

Spent the morning stippling a wedge for parts before before it goes to srap

[Monkeylegend]

Nor stippled

Shame to see these disappear like this

[mrzigazaga]

Very sad ..however are you not taking the door handles/locks/key?...and most important the door glass?...that is like rocking horse poo...wait until you need to find one!!....(i hope not)....

[colin mee]

I left the handles as they had no keys.yes I had the glass (I needed one about 2 years ago

[colin mee]

I got the wiper motor too

Hi,
my 1983 280i FHC needs the part that connects the key turning mechanism to the locking mechanism.

The drivers door locks using the pull up / push down pin when closing the door and opens by leaning over from the passenger side to lift the pull up /push down pin.

If its not too late and the door handles are complete and available I am very interested.

[colin mee]

The door panel and the motors and the internal door lock parts have gone.if you have a photo of the part I can pop over to look for you

Hi Colin,

If the door handles are still available i'll have them.

Regarding the door lock mechanism which part are you after I have a set of FHC doors and may have the part you want.

Thanks

Mike

[colin mee]

I will ask him how much he wants for them.pm me if you want to Colin

[BIG DUNC]

Why is it being broken?

[colin mee]

Looked like it's been left out side for a number of years

[mrzigazaga]

Rear hubs...stub axles...diff and cradle...half shafts...wishbones..tie-bars and drop links....all rare stuff now...oh and the steering rack....tanks...rear lights..Badges..driving lights...pod motors....door stops and strikers...seats?

Actually what are the springs in the boot?...if they are front springs I will have them....

Hi Mike

I haven't looked behind the door trim but I'm told that there is a lug type (possibly plastic) connector that is attached to the 'back' of the lock, when the key turns this moves the 'door pin' and locks the door.
The pin operates the lock, just not the key , although the key does turn both ways in the lock.
I'm currently recovering from knee surgery so not able to take a look and possibly photo it.
