The day i picked up the car, my first diesel! 1995 E300, OM606.910, 220,000 miles and very clean! Paid $2200 after some negotiation

Then after looking up a bunch of stuff on the W124 platform i bought wheels. W211 E500 17x8.5j ET 38. At this point i know i wanted the car to be an STD eventually but hadn't done any serious research yet.

Got some decent tires on them for super cheap from a friends shop. 225/45 Federal 595. Test fitting on the front of my friends W210 E55 to see the brake clearance. Eventually i would like to run AMG calipers so now i know the ML55/E55 brakes will fit under the wheels

Around november i found out the headgasket was leaking so i made the decision to do an OM606.962 swap and begin the super turbo diesel journey. One of my coolant hoses burst just doing normal daily driving so instead of filling it with coolant once a day i parked it on my driveway and began ordering parts.

Hey guys, i figure i should start a build thread as im halfway through my project. I always take lots of pictures when im working on my car/getting parts so hopefully you enjoy the documentation!
