Here my new ride
Purchased 6 months ago for $1650,230k on the clock,only thing I've done so far,fixed harsh shifting prob. new fluid ,filter,pan gasket,installed K1 shift kit,shifts normal now,new brakes,all new fluid,oil,filters,plugs,ovp,dist cap ,rotor.
new head light doors.ready now to install 2 new fuel pumps and filter,also have replacement EHA valve all these components are leaking gas!
Car drives fine,fast,smooth engine,think PO did the head gasket job I also detailed and painted engine bay
After I do the fuel related issues the climate control is next,no a/c

I stripped and stained some of the wood,it was really bad! more to do
uro aftermarket headlight doors,got them for free new!
not a bad looking car for $1650,but at 230k 5 P-owners,needs TLC mechanics
I bought it cause cosmetics were great,I do all my owen work and have about $2100 into it so far. started working on these cars in Sept. my son bought a 92 w124 on ebay for $3700 with a blown head gasket! dummy! so I did the work on it! and got hooked on these Iconic cars
