I have most of the parts, but there are some key bits that were sold off, like
the blue flying saucer vacuum control valve. However, now that The White Whale
is too rusty to bring much $ as a whole car, she'll be more valuable as a
donor, so effectively I have more than one car's donor parts.
Wilton went to great lengths to procure a 1987 W124 300D sedan in showroom
condition.
Then some idiot wrecked it for him.
Max got the whole car. I don't know how much he still has.

Yes, so I've got complete wiring harness and most of the rest of the parts, I
may decide to scrap The White Whale and get the rear end, muffler system, fuel
tank, and then send that rusty hulk to the crusher.

Converting gas to diesel is not trivial. All you wiring will need to be
different, unless you can harvest a terminal block, instrument panel and
all wiring from a diesel sedan. At that point you might as well put a 606
in, and if you are doing that, maybe just go one better and drop a salvage

Rick you've nailed it, time is the key factor. Progress may be slow, but I do
make progress, so time will be the judge.

The answer to that question is dependent on time. If you work a mere forty
hours a week, and have a minimal commute time, it is probably doable. If you
are semi retired or retired, it is definitely doable. If you have no family
commitments, other than the ordinary, that would help. If your

Buy a '95 E320 wagon (gasser), which starts and runs, use the gasser bits
to get my '95 cabriolet running (it has been sitting dead for years,
supposedly just a bad fuel pump). Once the cab is rolling, install an
OM603 (and associated supporting bits) in the wagon.

This is insane. These cars were worth maybe $2,000 back in the 90s.
Nobody wanted them, with their silly little front bumpers, houndstoothy
cloth interior, undersized rear bumper, and pedestrian manual
transmissions. Now look at the hysterical bidding war - 59 and counting.
It looks pretty good in the photos. Cracked dash and no AC but apart
from that, not bad.
$5600 does not get you a whole lot these days.

It should be noted that the early Green Party in Germany in the 1980s
also supported advocates of pedophilia, this according to the leftist

Went out to put on that mirror Tom sent me and realized the mounting holes are
way too close together. Looked at the two mirrors together and they're similar
but different. The one from my '83 is definately a refinement, its got a 123
part number and has closer tolerances. The older one has no
Tired of the squish, squish, squish of fuel leaking on you when you
use the primer pump? Don't use it then! You can always buy a new
pump but what if that's unpalatable, you live in Cuba, or you're in a
hurry? Worried that if it leaks fuel it can leak air too? That's a
very reasonable fear.
Man, I lob an easy one to y'all and nobody even swats at it?
How about my next write-up being on the types of glue and knots
that work best for repairing rubber bands? I was expecting at
