Nope. Cars can sit on streets a maximum of 72 hrs, if they are in running, driveable condition. No working on cars in the street is allowed anymore, and even having non-driveable cars sitting on one's property can be a problem, if someone reports it. Real estate agents report those kinds of things, as do landlords because of the potential drop in desirability of the area when a house looks like a car lot. Living in California is a pain these days, because of all the rules and everyone is worried about what everyone else is doing.

When I was a kid through young adult, there were guys building race cars, street cars, motorcycles all over the neighborhoods near me. I miss those days.

As for this 220D, I'm not trying to get it home. I'm just working at getting this going so he can sell it, I guess.

The oil leak I stopped by sealing the hole in the front of the block, with a hex head bolt, flat washer and a copper washer under the flat washer. I was just wondering why I was having to seal a hole.

I don't know if the power steering pump works. It could very well just be the bracketry not allowing the pump to do it's thing, but unfortunately I'm not the one who took it apart so I have to guess. Seeing that one bracket has a broken mount tab and others have been rattling around because I can see the wear on the bolts, I am working on the brackets first and seeing what that gets me. I'm going to a pull your own parts place or two, tomorrow.
