Looks like the verdict is in, that 240ds gota have your name on the registration. Look at it this way, getting this car will give you incentive to find a parts car and do some switching around. How do you feel about DIY , I worn you it could get addicting. Like I said before if you ever wanted to get involved in the joy of pulling something really cool apart and being to fix it (most of the time) then this car is the ONE. Putting a 300 (non turbo) in it would be a little more than I would attempt now at my skill level. It doesn't sound like there are allot of MBs around Oahu which might mean rebuilding the engine you have which, like someone pointed out" wouldn't be over 1K. In reality you might not want to do this 100% on your own. There might be a few retired ol MB mechanics over there getting tired of just kicken back on the beach, that might be willing to help a guy fix up such a cool car.
