Clean title in my name on non op no fees or bs
Edit:
Sale will include original Ca 85 manifolds and trap oxidizer, W115 OM617 N/A manifold, spare turbo for parts, and all my other Mercedes parts.
I should add that the driveshaft is cut and butt welded as a temporary solution. I drive it around town but not safe for freeway speeds.

I get it at work, I'm a process pipe welder and I weld sanitary tube/stainless pipe and structural everyday. I get stainless drops and scrap often. You can contact a local pipe supplier and ask about sanitary tube but be ready for some sticker shock. The 4" .065" wall I have for my cummins is over $25/ft to buy retail.

07-22-2015, 11:28 PM #21Oh it looks nice. I am in LA. I already drive an 85 wagon with 189k though. Thanks for info on the pipe. If I needed a car I would buy it.
I would definitely be interested in this but I have WAY too many projects right now. Where are you moving to?

Yeah its me. Like I said above I dont want to sell at all but I have no time and wont have space....
That 4 speed turned out to be just fine, I put around town in the wagon sometimes and never an issue.
My family and I are moving to Magalia near Paradise. I don't think I'd survive another year in the valley if I had to!!

07-29-2015, 08:17 PM #24Awesome Brother...thats a nice part of the state! I was just up around those parts (near Yuba) on the way to Portland to pick up an OM606 a few weeks back. Again, I hope you can find a buyer, looks like a nice wagon and you've done some great work...If I had the room I would swap the remaining good parts off my w123 and run it. I've always loved the wagons.
