Someone I know is scrapping a W116 280SE. It's quite basic, spec cloth seats, no alloys etc, metallic blue/grey with a blue check pattern interior.

They've told me I can pick off anything I want before it goes. I don't have a 116 & don't know much about them so would be looking at this purely as a commercial thing.

What are the best / rarest / most sought after bits to snag for ebaying?
 
Wings, doors, dash, cluster, steering wheel, engine, box, lights etc....
 
IMO bits you can easily / quickly remove and won't be too bad to store. Lights, interior/exterior trim, switches, handles, bumpers, wheel trims, badges, etc.
 
Have you got room to store the car for a few weeks? If so, advertise the easy/desirable parts first and then let people request things that they are looking for. You're bound to be met with requests for parts that you've forgotton to take or didn't think were worthwhile otherwise ;)

Why's the car being scrapped - rust?
