So after 5.5+ years of trusty driving (has never broken down) I've decided to sell my 1993 190d diesel conversion car if anyone wants it.

It runs and drives fine, its super slow. (0-60 around 20-22 seconds flat out) Has the original gas engine auto trans and drive-line mated to a 1984 OM601 diesel.

When I put the car together 5 years ago I replaced flex discs, trans mount, struts, shocks, ball joints, radiator, hoses, you name it. three windows of the 4 work (left rear does not), has a nice newer radio and speakers, works with original power antenna

To prepare the engine I replaced the flex plate, vacuum pump (brand new pierburg), glow plugs, injector nozzles and Injection pump crush washers/seals/return lines, timing chain, and hydraulic lifters. Engine has about 320k on it but runs great, could be pulled and used for some other project if you wish. Transmission had low miles as it was rebuilt when the car had about 190k on it, currently at 227k.

I put all new brakes and rear calipers on it last year, it can stop like nothing, has decent tires on original wheels. Monowiper works perfect/was replaced about 5 years ago. Has aftermarket glass euro headlights, heat works great, no A/C.

Has some oil leaks from the engine, trans is dry.

Plenty of rust.

No water leaks.

I'll throw a few pics up shortly.

Lots of excellent parts on this car, or drive it as is. I have a space ship Bluetec now so I've just lost interest in driving this one much.

Asking $900 OBO - PM if interested!
