your first inversment needs to be a can (or case) of engine brite, that bay looks like the exxon valdez ran aground there.
Otherwise, it looks like a great project. You sure cant beat the simplicity of the 240D. . .

Congrats! You will get much enjoyment out of that car. Mine (1980) doesn't have the thing popping up in front of the air cleaner assembly. What is that? Hopefully with some belts and a battery it'll fire right up!

Soooo when you say it doesnt run.. What does it do? Turn over? Are you familiar with the glow plug situation?
Also the FIRST thing you need to do is get the Mercedes Star Emblem replaced LOL! Priorities after all......
