Yea, I figured. On a flipper I might go with cheap parts. But on the
other hand, even if its a flipper I dont like using cheap parts. Damn
this is absolutely the smoothest and most quiet OM616 I have seen. It
literally runs like a sewing machine. I may just have to keep it.

I replaced the voltage regulator then took it out for a spin. This is a 81
with only 153k miles. The blower does not come on and ac does not kick on. It
is still R12 and have not put gauges on to see if it’s leaked out or an
electrical issue. I do know the compressor turns free. Anyway it drives great
even though it could stand to have a front end rebuilt. Got it up to 70 and it
was smooth. Thinking about throwing it out for $2500 at is. Otherwise I will
get the ac going, maybe do the front end then get up to $3500 or more, or is
that too cheap these days?
