There was a reasonably nice '83 240D sitting in front of a house for a long time that I was interested in. It was suffering from a lack of maintenance including a very leaky primer pump and tight valves. He wanted to know what needed to be fixed. I told him that a valve adjustment would run $110 or so, $20 for the primer pump, and another $50 for fuel system and cooling system maintenance to get it ready for the road again. I wanted him to sell it to me for $500. The plan didn't work, and he ended up giving it to his grandson. They got that car running, and it's been clattering around the neighborhood for the past year. i'm happy that it's running around again rather than just rusting away beside the street.
