Nice looking ride, Don. If you got a personal loan for your 123 and paid it off you shouldn't have any problem getting another one. That vanity plate would be great!

While The Don may cruise around in a 126, he does need and must trust his Sotto Capo and Capodecina who may very well have to "settle" for a 123. So don't turn your back completely on us "lowly" 4 and 5 cyl. guys. We know who the Capofamiglia is, but you need our respect.

I really dig those diplomat cars. Good score Don.

Anyone have the rod specs, especially length? I'm curious to see if I could find a custom race big block chevy H-beam rod that can be machined to work in this app.

If so, I'll start looking for one, pop the engine and build the bottom end for 700,000 miles or 1000 hp .

Or just put a small Cummins in one!

You;re lucky I didn't outbid you on that w115 cheese grater

It's all talk until it's in the driveway........

but SDL... hard.. find.. local... honda civic


their is an 81 SD in orlando for sale. But the craigslist is kind iffy

http://orlando.craigslist.org/car/342758474.html

maybe I can just settle for a non LWB 126(sigh)

called the seller.. rust is the battery box(typical), interior has its cracks, dash has a crack.. odometer still works.. wow.. Maybe I'll go out one day and take a looky at it

$h!t, that sux. Good luck with your continued hunt.

You do realize that as long as you're driving around in a 300D, it gets some of the Capos and soldiers questioning things.
