Hi Jeff, very nice looking wagon!
Earlier in the year I bought a 95 wagon and have been putting a lot of miles on it. I had to replace the exhaust system as there was a hole where it was rubbing on something, the PO hadn't dealt with that but O/W in better than average condition. Replaced MAF and engine harness.
I need new shocks in the rear hatch, I bought them but need to install them, looks a bit harder than replacing 123 shocks but will see.
I love the feel of the 124 wagon, they are very solid, a quiet ride with great SLS and the M104 has plenty of power.

I will always drive a wagon and now that my 123 has around 330K on it I figured it was time for an upgrade, I had been looking for a 124 wagon a long time, most of what I saw had suspensions that were shot, were high milers with no maintenance or were overpriced ($8K for a black one, and I didn't want a black car). Finally found one from Washington on CL with 120K on it almost all freeway miles and a one owner car.

I would have bought yours in a heartbeat.
Someone is going to get a great car!
