Long ago I used to have a 1959 220s fintail, originally bought new in Germany by the original owner, from whom I bought it. Alas I sold it when funds were tight. Now, many years later, I'm interested in another fintail--an early 1965 190D. OK it's a big change from the 220s, but it's in nice shape. And I for one really liked the ribbon speedometer!javascript:emoticon(':P')

Can anyone tell me what kind of miles per gallon the 190D's got?
Are parts still available--injector pumps, filters, heater cores, etc.?
I live on a farm so diesel technology is relatively understood.

What else should I be aware of on this or similar models?

Thanks for any response!
