Tim 1982 300TD You didn't end up selling it! Great move! Either a W123 or W124 300TD Turbo Diesel will be my next Mercedes. W124 300TD's are going for at least 8K and for as much as 11K here in Portland, OR. I've even seen a few W123 'TD's for nearly that much. In top condition, my SD cou

Thanks, teach. I have seen some and am amazed that they're legal. Much as I hate to say anything positive about the criminals and wannabe criminals that do this sort of thing, I agree that it's visually interesting. Reminds me of a Stomper toy - remember those? Disclaimer: Yes, I realize that as
