Hey dieselheads! Been looking around for an old Mercedes diesel to convert to a grease car.

Stopped by a hoopty buy here and pay here for the rest of your life lot today to check out a couple of 300DT`s they had out front. They were in pretty bad shape, but while I was looking, a guy that worked in the shop came out and said his neighbor had one in much better shape if I was interested.

Of course I was and followed him to his neighbors house where an 84 300DT sat out front. Very good condition with no rust and 178k.

It hasn`t been on the road in a while and needs a good washing. Asked the guy what he wanted for it.....He said $600 and the price of a new battery. Needless to say, I`m picking it up tomorrow. Will post pics when I get it cleaned up. I think I did pretty good on this one.
