manual transmission
Hey everyone, I just want to know, is it possible to put a maunal transmission from an older benz in a 300SD, or has anyone seen one before? I've seen Euro W126s with manual transmissions but not a 300SD. I think it would be cool to have one with a manual transmission, but I prefer automatic anyway.

Interesting idea....
Now, if the 126 just had come as a kombi....
It seems like the OM617 should be able to take a manual tranny regardless of what chassis it sits in. Obviously, some modification to the shifter rods and driveshaft would be required plus fabricating a rear crossmember (Hehe,....no pulling a suitable one of those off a boneyard car on this side of the pond!!!). I wonder if the clutch/brake pedal assembly from a 123 is the same as those used on a 126???
