Whoever pays that price should 'have his ass removed' as Harry Callahan would say.
I have watched an '89 560SL on Craigslist go from an asking price of 18k to 8500 in the past six months. I think this car will go the same route. Looks like a parts car. As in made up of many mismatched parts.

Lots of people think there MB is worth more then it is, human nature really.

But the market straightens them out.

The seller is probably looking for a sucker who wants to use biodiesel and has a leaking wallet.

The "classic NADA Guide" shows the current value as stated. IMHO thats overpriced for a dirty looking car like that.

I am just so glad the driver seat mounting holes lined up perfect! Too bad the blue color doesn't match the rest of the interior. why even bother?

BTW, I have sold my share of "used" cars. I always way over-priced them, let the customer slam me down on the price while I squealed like a stuck hog about how bad they were killing me on the price. They always smiled as they drove off with their "great deal" and I grinned about the extra 300 bucks I'd made over my bottom dollar...win-win. Start high, sign lower...just reel 'em in real slow!
