Just an FYI. I would think you could get it pretty cheap-

"I have an 87 300 SDL that I want to sell to someone who needs the parts... I'm not "parting-it-out", I wish to sell the whole non-running car. Had been running fine, just put new tires on it, started a drive to Ohio and made it as far as Cumberland MD when the engine siezed up... no coolant in it... why? We don't know. Anyway, It's got the new tires which have to be worth something, battery, all the other goodies under the hood (I obviously don't know much about cars), if interested, drop me an emial to discuss... the car is in springfield at the moment..."

You know I called about that 300TD and nearly went by to check it out. I think you got a great deal. Next time I'll scope 'em out first.
