Congrats!

Now you have the whole spectrum covered from the finest small BF folding to the bullet proof large Flying Pigeon.

I read somewhere that you were concerned about the 3-speed IGH durability. I have quite a few of these and they all run fine. I have a folding frame coming with a coaster brake single speed rear wheel and I am going to put a 3-speed IGH in it.

BTW, is the 83 Diesel with an "iron 5" engine in it? These W123 platform cars can run a looong time. If it is a wagon, then it is very desirable. I used to have an 87 wagon (W124 series) with a 6 cylinder alloy (head) engine and that was a very fast diesel wagon.
