Do you know if the seals in the pump need to replaced with viton as well?

The irony here is that the states that claim to care the most about the
environment have no or next to no biodiesel pumps. Massachusetts has I think
one station on the cape. It used to have one in Acton but they stopped carrying
biodiesel. Maine has only one in Portland. When I lived in DC I use

Where is the bio-d pump? I might fill a couple jugs next time we're up there to
use in Angie's car.

The fact that the current owner is dumping it so soon after purchase is a huge
red flag. Miles aren’t too high, but the price should reflect the many minor
things that may be more major than the seller is leading on, or they should be
fixed.

It's more of an issue with aircraft engines where an overhaul can start at
$25,000 and go up, and where it's quite likely that an engine has been
sitting for too long.
That having been said, I did see one airplane that had been sitting for
15-20 years be started and flown out on a "ferry permit" fo

Rusty floors, rust on front end
This one was purchased brand new in Germany by the seller’s Step-Dad who
was in the service at the time.
This car is being auctioned on a new classic car auction site.

No manual turbo diesels in the US, but plenty of versions for the rest of
the world according to the MB Tech Data books.

But I believe the offset is way off on the installed wheels.
Are there totes and totes of spare bundts?

Yeah it does look pretty good.
Wheels look wrong. Not bad really, I just can't see anything other than Bundts
or the steel wheels with hubcaps on a W123.
It was my understanding that MB never fitted a manual with a turbodiesel. So a
transmission swap, or turbo addition was done at some point?
If as advertised, buy it, haul all the parts home, assemble it properly,
then put a fine Martha on the whole car and BAT flip it, for big bucks.
Euro with manual trans... wagon... It's the holy grail for a BAT flip.
