you could literally eat off the engine, it has the #14 head AND the crimp on vacuum pump.
has not been driven since 2002. was on a non op title, started right up ran and drove excellent, rear slightly bouncy due to defective accumulators.
the car was dissasembled internally for a detail by a crackpot tech who lost the door panels and all the wood before he dissapeared. except for a few minor paint chips the car is as new, i have a 2" stack of invoices for all the parts the previous owner did befor his tech vanished.
so after going through everything i am feeling like i have my work cut out for me, first and foremost i need to find grey doorpanels.
great to be back with a Diesel again, now if i can only get it put back togeather!!

When searching for the panels, keep in mind that you will need the rear door panels from a wagon. The front ones should be interchangeable. You might as well search for some from a late model 124 wagon. I can't remember what year the change occurred, but someone here will know.
