Built back when engineers ran the company.

Had a 95 124 wagon and loved it. Other than the common external headgasket leak, trouble free and solid.
Gave it away when I bought my first 140. The guy I gave it to got rearended at a light with his infant in a carseat, the truck that hit them was total, as was the Benz, but not a scratch on the occupants.
Did you r/r the top cyl's yourself? Need to do that to my r129 but have been procrastinating. Still works, but the main is weeping.
