So you're basically asking is it easier to swap an engine or to swap a gearbox....you're gonna have to pull both engines and gearboxes out anyway. Use the manual chassis if its the better nick body, saves you swapping pedals and crap, seems you're aware of the driveshaft issue
1978 300D, 373,000km... OM617.912 with a Holset HX30W, 7.5mm IP, 711.113 5 speed (project car, 7 years off the road and counting ;/)
1977 250 270,000km (parts car)
1977 300D (ex 280) 500,000km
1981 240D 498,000
1975 HJ45 ???,000
2001 2.8TD Rodeo 4x2 - 456,000 - DD
A 300TD is a wagon...you mean 300D turbo (sedans weren't sold factory as turbo in Europe btw, so it'd be a swap or something)
