The conversion actually looks very very easy. Not that many parts and everything is self explanatory. I'll keep my thread going with the detailed pics as well.

I am hoping it goes well for you-I have similiar plans-I have a '77 with a nasty body(read swiss cheese) but it is 4 speed. My other MB 240 is an 81(auto tranny) with a great body and interior which I got for $300--the engine may or may not fire up. That is the current issue-once I get this engine problem resolved I can proceed like you. I currently have another Diesel-a '99 VW TDI--a Red GLS with Black leather interior. I don't know if I will keep the VW once I get the MB fixed up or not--the VW is a nice car but all electronic and while the engine durability is not in question-the electronics are. My TDI really gets up and goes -much more fun to drive then my old MB but the lessons of the Tortoise(mb) and the Hare(vw-tdi) should be heeded. Actually my VW TDI Beetle weighs a 100-200lbs more then my old 84-190D did-surprising.
