I wish I could have gotten this engine in my W123 Coupe......
My big brother bought a W126 from a member here up North , it's a fine car, I think he was a little bit nervous when I stamped on it and quickly had it up to 100MPH without any offending sounds, noises or vibrations and it was smooth as silk at that speed too
.
Sadly the engine let go recently and it's just sitting, I don't know why he's not getting it fixed as he has a spare OM603 engine fully dressed just sitting .
Hurricane Hillary arrived in So. Cal. before sunup today (Sunday 8.20.23) and in the foothills it's been bucketing down since 07:00 ~ I hope everyone had good wiper blades .
I'm driving my old reliable 1982 W123 240D instead of my much newer truck because comfort and safety don'tcha know
.
I just wish the A/C worked as I like dry air, cold or hot, I like my air dry .
I hope all here (& elsewhere too) are doing okay and finding life to be good .
