Diesel is the Solution for Everything

Easy to produce, can use it for heating, driving, farming, etc. And you can put the various ways of using diesel together into interesting combinations:

This one amuses me because I have a 2-cyl Yanmar diesel tractor for small utility work that happens to be a 17-HP like this Kubota engine. I like the glow plug operation too.

Here's a pic to view after the auction is over:

1. That isn't the original speedo. In 1980 to 1982 all US cars had to have a 85mph speedo By LAW.
2. That gray color isnt orginal, I dont think you could get a blue interior with that light eggshell gray.
3. The price is way too high, and it's been in a pretty good accident.

That is all. :)

I see gray overspray on this rubber boot.

Doh! I got my threads crossed or my cut-and-paste failed somehow. Wrong auction! I went back in fixed the link!

But I was checking out that 240D earlier....... Not to buy.

I've been looking for a nice W123 in the Boston area... and all E-Bay has to offer are these overpriced cars (remember the $18K 300D?)

anyway...
is this the same color?

BTW,
the car is pretty interesting... damn.. 17hp!!!
I wonder what it's like to drive...

HEY!

Is that car for sale? Its a euro car with a stick. I want in.

That euro car is white, this 240D mutant is an eggshell grey.

That's one ugggly car in the link, looks like a unfortunate combination of a Pacer and pure 80's styling.
