That's really sad.

That was a beautiful coupe in it's day.

I don't think you can economically bring it back anymore.

I have the money and I have a place for it; maybe I should go get this one. Lockhart is only about 30 miles from home.

It's clearly a CD not a D....and if I was anywhere nearby I would pick it up as well. I would love a red 300CD.

There's something fishy about this deal; have you been in contact with him?

Personally, I don't care one way or the other if I wind up with it (I already have 4 parts cars). Honestly, the novelty of buying a parts car for less than $400 is my main attraction.

I bought the cowl covers, that's all. Who else bought what else? Can't tell you.

Wow, that's a new low for a Mercedes Diesel. 3 Bids and $0.01 winning price.

The seller ended it early at the bid price to avoid paying eBay fees. He wanted $450 for it and was unwilling to negotiate...I imagine that he got it somehow. Waaay too much for that heap IMHO.
