Crap. I was just over there. I'll have to see if I can talk Kevin into climbing under the car to take a pic for me. He's tearing off 40+ yr old siding and putting up new stuff...he's not much in the mood to crawl under a car after a day of that. But for a quick pic, he might.
Was that a freaking-benz? No, it's my fault.
I know, I know...I jumped into this much like jumping off of a cliff without looking first. *Sigh* (I did that once with a career move...oops.)
Don't think that out of frustration I haven't considered selling the car the way it sits and use the money for another one that's already put together. Not only am I NOT a quitter, but I KNOW that would be a huge mistake and I KNOW I'm gonna love this car once it's back on the road.
We're really not that far from being road ready. This weekend we need to: Find that bushing that's missing on the transmission. Do a major PS flush & put in the other fluids just to get it started. I'll order that darned filter I didn't know about and put it on when it gets here. Kevin's still got to figure out how/where to cut & weld that CPR & put the exhaust on. I "think" that's all for basic operation. Then of course there is the endless list of items...door locks, switch the passenger seat bottom for the drivers, wash the goats milk out of my back floor mat, see if the a/c works, I'll need it soon enough oh and find "new" speakers for the back...the former owner blew them out.

You decided to jump the gun a little bit and hand build your Dream Mercedes Diesel from " Bitsa This & Bitsa That " ~ IIRC , there's early and late trannies , the pans or noticably different , just match up the gasket in the filter kit with what you see under your Franken Benz & you should be good to go .
