biodiesel 122? 120-130

Floyd
I read all the replies thru today 12/28 and will say anything is possible, but!
There always is a BUT.
Why do you want to do this?
1)You won't be saving money as making this conversion will cost you so much that you have to drive the car at least another 40 years to reap the benefit of the savings.
2) I think if you have a nice body 122 keep the engine with it (rebuild it) it is to much of a Classic to cut up for such a project.
3) If you are really doing it for the environment go with a already diesel car (VW, Peugot, Mercedes or even Japanese) and convert it to bio.
4) If you like Classic cars and want better mileage get an old Citroen 2CV (60 plus mpg) they came in wagon style too.

Good luck with whatever you decide.
