Typical Problems

I bought if from the second owner. He had owned it for the past 24 years. It has 240k on it. It still has a #14 head, but a complete head job was done on it around 180k. It has two bad glow plugs. The AC still cools, but the compressor shuts off when the engine drops back to idle. I'm thinking it may be a speed sensor/Klima relay issue.

The tires are new and the suspension in the rear is solid. I've always loved the w126 chassis in the SDL. I'll fix a few items and then sell the car later on. I just hated to see someone buy it and do hack jobs on it. This car will be a nice road car for someone who can appreciate it.

If I can't find some dark brown seats soon then I'll be installing the lighter color interior from the 1991 560 SEL I stripped on Monday.
