Sorry for the ginormous pictures, my friend didn't shrink them, they load ok though if you aren't on dial up






and here's the money shot....

odometer quit working in and out but finally gave up the ghost about 5 years ago...so my friend claims (previous owner)

It was all of 300$ so I'm not complaining, runs great on SVO right now, my friend actually got drunk and did a shot of my fuel...that's another story.

240 D

Hey Cannonball, My 240 looks just like yours. Mine has some minor dents but the incipient rust under the right headlight door looks familiar. Enjoy!

I'm glad I've got the 125 MPH speedo not that I've ever used it past 85.

The rust is just from rock chips rusting over the years. Other than that there are a few dents and one bonehead dent in the DS rear 1/4 from a jack I had in the trunk sliding into the side, DOH!

My friend who owned it before me said that he remembers there being a speedo that went above 85 in the car at one point and that the odometer has broken a few times, and the last one was like 5 years ago and they just gave up.
