Introducing TFW

The Fat Wagon needs a little cosmetic helping hand ill give you that but beggars can't be choosers and for the princely sum of kr8,500- whaddaya want a supercar?
The vital stats:
A Green 1982 Mercedes Benz 300TDT
Engine is a bomb proof 2998 cc Turbo Diesel which also just happens to be able to run on other fuels

So as i'm lucky enough to have a workshop at my disposal first things will be to give the car a once over to discover just how much of a shed it actually is, give it a bit of a service to make sure everything is OK and then it's ready to be tested out using SVO or even WVO!
The cold winters in Norway aren't really the climate to try this out as the fat tends to gloop up in the fuel lines, so a few home made 'improvements' are required.
There are plenty of kits available from the internet to convert but where is the fun in that and besides i'm a real tightwad.
