Is the expansion tank looked good? if not you can install a new plastic one from later(2nd gen) W126 with cap 140, direct bolt on actually. I replaced mine with it, radiator and 140 cap new a few years ago. The radiator is quite narrow b/c it has an oil cooler. cross flow radiators is also very good and they're available from later W126 also,but installation requires modification of the mounts.
