Your link did not work. it came to the PB sign in page asking for your password. Why not just cut and paste the link so we can just click on it to view your pics? John

Did you mean "wreck" or are you trying to spell the german phonetic for work "werk"?

Sure it did!! Hood, grille, lites, and front fenders all crumpled. Not pretty, but certainly fixable.

no its in the shop right now the damage is really only on the drivers side, no engine damage besides the radiator and oil lines though. while its in the shop im going to put on a passenger side mirror too. i actually drove away from it considering my house was only 1/2 mile away from the wreck.

Good for you. Glad to see you keeping it on the road. (even if I am connected with a salvage yard). My 123 is on a downhill slide, but I still hope it makes 400k (390 right now).

Well, for your first wreck you certainly got your money's worth! Sorry it happened, but I'm glad you are getting it fixed.
Hood, light stuff, radiator, oil cooler and lines, etc.....$$$$$$$$

You could have probally just had the insurance company total the car, they give you the check, you buy the car back for a few hundered, and then spend the rest of the money on another diesel benz, and you would have a nice parts car.
