Post W123 5-speed trans. + all conversion parts

Ever wanted a W123 Turbo 5-speed? Me too!!! So I spent many years and LOTS of money gathering up the required components and eventually got it all put together. Unfortunately, there was a problem in the oil pick-up tube in the oil pan of the engine and I promptly threw #2 rod bearing. I did get to drive the car 5 miles before the rod went so I can assure you all of these drivetrain components work as they should. My family situation has changed and it will be more than a few years before I have a chance to work on this again so I am offering the *COMPLETE* 5-speed conversion kit up for sale. All of these parts are currently in Fresno, Ca, but I will be bringing them up to Seattle, Wa in December. Unless someone in CA wants to buy the parts. See below about the flywheel.

• 5-speed manual trans from a euro-spec W123
• Clutch pedal assembly
• Master Cylinder
• 5-Speed shifter with linkages
• Clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing *All New*
• Custom made custom length driveline *New*
• Trans mount for 5cyl. 5spd

The fly wheel I used is from a 240 and was resurfaced. However, I have recently acquired a 300 flywheel that I pulled myself from a Euro-spec 300D 4-spd. That flywheel is in Seattle. All other parts are in CA. I might be willing to sell the 300 flywheel separate.
I am trying to post a photo, If it doesn’t show up I will post soon. I can also email pics.

the flywheel in the pic is from a 300... the 240 flywheel is flat, no weight ring on it.
