HP robbing. A new york is ~$250 and takes a lot of HP. A rotary
compressor takes less HP and is easily available for a pick and pull
for ~$25. Just puck a popular model...accord or camry.
A 115 240D does not have an excess of HP to to waste on a York. The
reliability/life cycle of a york is less than a Japanese rotary
compressor. The sanyos MB uses typically last for 200-300k miles.
why not just replace it with the proper York compressor? They
should be easy to find new/rebuilt/

My guess is that the body is solid, if the car has always lived
in the desert. Check for rust/bondo iin the rockers, behind the
front wheel, in front of the rear wheel and in the trunk wells. It
looks like Midnight blue. I don't remember ever seeing that before
a 123. If I lived in Phx, I'd pay $2000 for it if it is as good as
it appears it might be. 140k is not that much on a OM615 I think
with a litte ingenuity you can rig a rotary compressor from a
honda/toada to fit on the compressor mounting and even use the
original belt size. A compressor from a u-pull should not be that
expensive. Be sure to get the manifold and a good chunk of each
hose with it.
