The 93-300D is gone to crushville... I let the long block go with timing cover and oil pan...

Anybody wanting an SD or w123 sedan... Better come forward quickly...

I pulled the radiator out of the 190, and the 93-300D, but the 124 radiator will NOT fit in the 201... BOLLOCKS!

I will pull the radiator from my turbo 190, it sure isn't using it...

Ok, there are a LOT of differences between turbo and non turbo... Radiators are similar, but not same...

I worked on the body damage some... Drivers headlight fits in now... I still have to get the frame straight... Bent my pry bar... I may need to drill out the skid bar to get the frame straight... If the fenders line up, I may ignore the bent frame...

I've gotten the hood hinges back straight, and mounted part of the hood...

I took a pic of it in place, but I used my ipad... and it's a pain to upload from...

I'll get them posted asap, but here's some of my attempts to fix the frame and headlight area...

looks pretty rough at the moment but i'm sure that it will be sweet with the 2.5 and the 5 speed when you get it sorted out. i thought that car had the 2.2. did you have a spare 2.5 to put in it?

I couldn't get the hood hinges straight, so I pulled a set from pullapart I also cut out the radiator support for a perfect repair this fall, but I THINK I can get everything lined up for the GTG this weekend

I got the new radiator from pelican! Better aligned the supports, and put it in. I've got the hood closing... Mostly... Once I get the headlights mounted, the car should pass inspection so I can get a tag, and then off to the alignment... Then tires... And ready for the GTG
