Hahah, just curious where you get that from the above?
A beat to hell E55 is about 10K - with unknown issues, a good one is closer to 20k.
I'm all-in on the W124 at around 2500 bucks with an entirely new suspension, refreshed subframe and all new bushings, new ignition system, new wheels and tires. Pulling out an engine and a head-job isn't going to add a ton to the cost, since I do all of the work, except the machine work.
A turbo, and manifold are.... a grand maybe? If I don't find a junkyard turbo and rebuild it?
