Meangrean,
Don't get me worng, I love my 124. It is purely my workhorse, a very dependable one at that. I should have explained it a little better. The car has over 300K on the clock, not sure the exact mileage as I bought it from the second owner 5 years ago. When I bought the car, the odo was broken for years. The guy told me he figured the car had 270K at the time. I replaced the odo from the dealer as Maryland requires a working odo for all out of town cars. Told the dealer to set the new odo at 220K instead of 270K. Now it registers 280K on the new odo.

Back to your question. There are a lot of things needed on the car, and I don't know if it worths the money to have everything fixed. Basically, I will need to spend at least $5K to make the car decent, but the question is whether the $5K well spent on a car worths only $2K? For the money, I probably can pick up another 124 as my workhorse.

Things need to be fixed just to give you a run down:
Tranny leak (this maybe the biggie, as I suspect the tranny needs rebuilt)
A/C needs recharging
Sunroof inop
Oil leak (one quart every 200 miles) at the timing chain cover, this can be fixed if I have the chain replaced
Strut mounts
Engine mounts
Wheels alignment
Serpentine belt needs replacement soon
New paint job

I recently spent $250 at the stealer on two window switches. But talked them into fixing my radio for free (it has not been working for 3 years - orginal Becker GP).

If money is no object, I would love to rebuild the car from ground up as I love the timeless look of the 124. The car has no rust.
