OM603 Junkyard fine

A 1987 300 Turbo Diesel sedan landed in my local PickNPull one day before the 1/2 off weekend sale.

I was originally just going to pull some extra parts and did that on the first and second day, but my friends and family just told me to pull the whole thing....

Well Sunday I did and I got the engine and Transmission for about $430....

In the next week or so I will get the engine on an engine stand and start the total tear down.....

I am sure I will have millions of questions, but I just wanted to share a great find.

FYI - the crank spun great it has the 14 head on it but the trap oxidizer was replaced. It looked like the previous owner took decent care of the car. I found a lot of replaced parts like new flex disks and rebuilt heater controls - it seems they intended to keep driving the car. It did not have any obvious crash damage so I am not sure what put it in the yard.
