A few moments of temporary insanity, and a 1980 240D becomes mine!
4 months ago I bought a wagon which I though I could put into service quickly, but that was in such horrible shape that it has turned into a full on restoration.
Ive been floating around on here getting more and more envious of all you people happily driving around in your diesels, but today I went and looked at a 450 dollar 240 with a slipping auto tranny which suddenly popped up. I have decided to sell my perfectly useful truck, and buy another 123 because ive missed them so much! Plus, for the price, the car is pretty nice, and well maintained.
I have a number of trannys available, including a custom 5-speed I have literally been going nuts over waiting to get it in my wagon.
This stroke of luck means that it will be tested on a 616 instead of a 617, but at least this is a running car!
I pick it up tomorrow, pics to come!
