Mercedes w123 chassis.
It’s bulletproof reliable…
Love the 280CE - of any of the two door versions… but now that I’m gonna be a dad, will probably try to find the station wagon… and I want the exterior to look like it’s 40 years old… don’t need it to be shiney.
My base vehicle will be sub 5k
W123 chassis is nice.
I also find station wagons with wooden panels have a nce distinctive look. Less mad max though 
That car in the picture isn’t much too nice a condition to do what I want to do.
I am looking for a clearcoat over raw metal, 3 inch lift, fat tires, big front bumper guard… and the piece de resistance… a smoke stack right up through the hood with large fuel injectors that can give off black smoke on command… diesel is so fun 👌
That Chassis is the best era of Mercedes Engineering and build quality.
Just click the doors shut, and you’ll feel it
