The only diesel I have ever heard of with a different rear end was the 85 123.
Did the 80 116 really have a different rear end than the rest of the 116
diesels?

I understand your line of thought, but consider that there’s land value there,
too, which would not be a part of a payout in a loss. Homeowner’s insurance
would only pay out for replacement of the house and contents, and would likely
take years to collect.
It’s a less than ideal solution, but
Yea, you can go the aluminum route, or there are a couple of kits that
completely replace it.

Don has some good questions, but I agree about the points for a 380 over a 450.
560 is a bat out of hell car, but they’re tough to find in good shape for
