c12h23s' w115 300d
This is my new project for the time being. Picked up the car for a measly $250 due to the fact that someone didnt understand the importance of general maintenance of old mercedes diesels. Changed all fluids, valve adjustment performed, new glow plugs, new radiator hoses and cosmetic touches that make it my own. I am installing new monarch nozzels this weekend after a pop test and reshim of the injectors. Great little commuter car!


Its a work in progress and for the money I dont think you can beat it!!

Here are some new pic's with the new wheels and black rubber things removed. 2/17/10
