Any Georgia guys want to check out an Ebay GD-wagen for me?

Anyone in Georgia feel like going to check out this car? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4545822321&category=31854&sspagename=WDVW
The seller doesn't give much information ... could be a steal or a total financial drain. $7,500 doesn't seem bad if it's in good shape.
Don't anyone go out of their way to look at this for me ... I can't call myself a "serious" buyer at this point, but if nobody bites on the Buy It Now, I'm entertaining the thought of adding the little bruiser to my MB "fleet."
Probably a bad idea, as I barely have a dime, and I don't have a very good knowledge base on diesel engines (yet) ... but I figure if the opportunity is too tempting, i can always buy and then stable it at my dad's place until I can afford to take it on as a project.

Anyone live near it who knows their stuff? I'd be interested to know the straight story on the car's condition.

Bumping ... giving it a second chance in case any potential helpers missed it.

I think I saw on the g-wagen forum a guy posted looking for a 280GE or 300GD. Someone had already tipped him off to this one, and he is located in Georgia as well.

Judging by the 280GE we had in the shop about a year ago, I'd run away FAST and never look back but, if its as fun to drive as the new g-wagens are, it might be a nice aquisition for you. The biggest annoyance I have with them are the reflections inside on sunny days, thats what perfectly vertical flat windows do for ya. Gets kind of distracting when driving.
