1985 w123 300cd
W123 hoodstack 300cd. Enjoy :)

Wasn't a lot of work but took a lot of planning and some custom fabricating.



When I first got her off the trailer. This car saved me in a rough time. My steers had just blown up, I had a 1000$ found her on Craigslist for 1200$ but The dudes I bought from (place called autowerx) were real cool and worked with me and had previously went over the entire vehicle and made sure it was in tip top shape.





Got me to work everyday at 75 mph 30 miles a day each way. Fit two car seats in the back. Full tank lasted a week.





So I got my life together and came time to sell her. But she treated me too good. Couldn't get rid of her. So I decided to show her more love and give her some personality.








Napa screwed me on this 2.5 elbow. Hid that hole under the price tag. Good thing I'm a welder but keep ur eyes open next time u buy **** from Napa... Dirty jerks.








Had a custom plate cut on my works plasma table to match the turbo outlet diameter and bolt holes. If anyone needs one made hit me up on here and we can work something out.
