Found a cream puff 92 300D, have questions
 
Hello. I am a brand new forum member and this is my first post here. I just bought a 1992 300D turbo diesel. I may shine it up and sell it, but I may keep it. It's a nice car. 108,xxx mi, parked since 2005 after my colleague's father had a stroke and couldn't drive it. Has a few old man marks on it, but it's not bad.

I have a question about the head lights. They look different than all the other 92's. They are one piece. European or something? I don't think you'll be able to see them well in my pics because I haven't even washed this car yet.

Also, it has a gold type trim around the windows. Is that stock? Or did someone pimp my new ride?

Is there any known problems or flaws with this year/model car?

Anyone running BioDiesel?

Anyone ever slap a bigger turbo on one? Would love to hear from you!

Lastly, anyone interested in buying this? I will post in the for sale section if I decide to seriously sell, but I'll always entertain offers. Barter?

I will try to put more pics up right now.

Stock...
 
Your headlights are neither Euro or Aftermarket headlights. They are stock... I had a 93 SD and currently have a 94 SL-both with the same headlights.

Thanks for the info! So, what kind of HP can these diesels push? WIth upgrades on the stock motor (injector pump, turbo, etc)
