hi babymog,

I really like the rims on your TD. Those look like later model Merc wheels, would you tell me about them?

thanks

What? Your kidding. Hilarious. But I love a good excuse for playing hooky and taking a road trip with the family. When did you get yours? Was it off craigslist around new year? I got mine Jan 18th off craigslist. I had seen one in Nashville get away at new year and got to reading how rare they were on this forum and how much better and cheaper they are than my sisters Passat wagon TDI and then saw mine in Indiana the night it was posted. The guy didn't even mention it had a trailer hitch. I was up there the next night.

It was fun but after a long drive and skiing that day, 10:00 pm in winter is not the best time to buy a car.

Just wanted to share a vid of the S124...
nice MB video thread about the 124 with a prominent TD showing, and some nice concept cutaways!

Got mine in March IIRC, from the forum. Better weather than January for trailering.

I'll resurrect this thread as I am a first time Benz owner and just got my hands on this little beauty. As soon as I lose the horrible chrome arches and wheels It'll be basically exactly what I was looking for!

Here's mine on the trailer bring it home last year...

I also just bought the 85 300D pictured here. Thinking of putting the wheels and tires from that on the wagon if they will work. Haven't had them off yet to check...

Never ending work in progress

Wow. What's the story with that one? You have a build thread somewhere? What model/year are those wheels off of?

I've forgotten what exact model they're originally from, but I think some folks refer to them as C7s?

Wanted a wagon sooo bad but couldn't find one

were the 603 powered wagons only in 87??
