There's a fair number of cheap '94-'95 facelifted 124s around here too,
even a Cabrio for $8K but the infamous disintegrating wiring harnesses
worry me.

They both are. Usually not a fan of modified cars, but didn't think the
300CE was too over the top. It could stand to loose the spoiler though
(or be replaced with a smaller one).

Have not heard too much from Clay on his W220, would love to see pics
sometime. I was hoping he would be able to get his E300 fixed up or find
a replacement 124, 210 or 140 diesel. Oh well, I'm sure he'll come to
enjoy it (the W220).

Nice!

Which is nice, the 126 I posted or the 124 boy-racer coupe Dan
posted?

The latter is only about five hours from me, and I could visit Clay
on the way back and see his new W220... I'd probably be pricing
Amtrak and Greyhound tickets already if I weren't unemployed.

It is the 103 3.0, very slow in a big 126, will be about the same mpg as a 420

Nice! IIRC, the 124 coupe got the 24V M104 first & the
124 sedan/wagon followed in '93. The '91 126 still has the 12V M103.
