Ara, I think he's planning to put it in his 300TD. Not sure though.

And yes, Palangi's car is identical...I think I know why too.

Hehe, you guys are a riot!!!!....but, any one of you can hand over $4k, take the car and do what ever you want to with it.

Seriously, I may have to hack this one just to get it running. The PO overheated the engine when the radiator failed. It's definitely pressurizing the cooling system so that means that 1) the head gasket it toast or, 2) the head is toast. If it is #2, I'll have to put a regular head back on the car since the chances of finding a good SLS head for a 616 in the states will be somewhere in between slim and none.

The 5-speed is defintely going into my TD. I'll replace it with a good 4-speed from inventory since the 4-speed that's in my wagon right now has the buzzies.

Maybe so but, the prospective purchaser would then have the opportunity to 'put their money where their mouth is' and save this 'classic.'
