As well as the W123 estate project listed elsewhere on this site, I also have a spares car.
This is absolutely, definitely, irrefutably NOT saveable. It's a 198,000 rotten pig of a thing with very little going for it.
However the OM 617 engine starts and runs well with no smoke. 198,000 remember, so I'm not saying it's perfect but it starts first turn of the key and sounds like it will run forever.
The automatic transmission is severely goosed and will only just provide enough drive to move the car, and even that ability is decreasing every time I move it. I will also be spares recovering the rest of the car for trim, lights, glass etc for the other car.
So for sale is the engine itself with all ancilliaries. You can take it away with the remains of the car which I will keep in a rolling condition and strip it at home, or if you pay me more money I will remove the engine and palletise it for your carrier to collect.
In addition, if you see any W123 parts you need call me and if I don't need it we can do a deal. Sensible offers for everything please.
Of course, if you've read this far and are thinking 'Golly I wish I had a W123 project and a spares car to go with it', then call me!
