I dunnoooooo.......

G'mornin',

Has anyone else had the thought to build a "T Bucket" hot rod using a 617.95 attached to a 717.400 manual transmission?? Seems like a logical medication for this disease.......as I understand it, there is no cure, Dr. Mengele worked on one during the 1940's but was unsuccessful.......that's probably they moved VW Bug production to Brazil......lol......

If your going too get into this you might as well learn what to call your car, theres no such thing as a "DT" in MBdieselspeak a TD is a "wagon" We see used car salesman calling turbo models "TD" which they think means turbo diesel Like all those 240Ds with "leather". Heres a good site showing all the models http://home.hiwaay.net/~gbf/mbmodels.html

An 80s diesel MB with under 100K might be a good find, grab it
I would kill (almost) for one of those W120 or W121s
