It'd be nice to have someone of MB interest go through it just before crushing to ensure nothing worthwhile gets trashed, but from what I'm seeing in the pics, most of it is just plain old MBs that were left to die in a field.

having parted cars from a field in Ohio Im inclined to agree. one winter and summer in the tall grass will lay to waste anything of value. and critters love to nest in old field cars too so you can write off the interiors before wasting gas money there. maybe, if you can pick the mud out of the tranny or rears they might be ok if you have time and liquid wrench, engines probably not so much, they will be rusted solid and the bolts will just break off.
