hey guys heres some pictures of what I did all summer after buying a 300TD with a blown engine. I took the engine out of my old 300SDL which the trans quit on me. After getting the engine installed the trans went on the wagon, due to the rad mixing trans fluid and water.. It lasted 12 miles before it started slipping. Then we took a trans out of a different donor SDL, swapped the tails so the speedo will work, and now ive put about 200 miles on her. Theres still a good amount of work to be done, but I've been very anxious to drive the damn thing. We still have to clean up the engine bay a little, figure out the vacuum lines, only the front brakes work and the pads are pretty shot, new pads and rotors for all 4 corners are on the way along with brake master cylinder. Theres some noise coming from the rear along with the backbreaking failed SLS which we will swap to bilstein sport shocks, some interior TLC one window doesnt work, and the stereo needs an upgrade, then time will tell what else needs attention.
