Do I add another??
Looking at a 75 300D. Car does not run, don't know much about it other than it looks rust free. Should be able to get it for around $200 or so. If I don't buy it, I have a feeling it's going to end up in the junkyard that I frequent, since he goes to the same auctions I go to. I can't stand to see a Mercedes be scrapped if there is a reasonable chance to bring it back to life. I'd be basically buying it now and fixing it later, after the 82 gets done. I hate decisions like this....
Should I delve into the W115 world?? I figure if nothing else, it'll be another learning experience.

Hmm a W115, that's definitely an interesting one there, definitely a breed of their own from what I've seen...

Whats the junkyard going to charge you if you buy it from them? More than $200 probably. The 115's are harder to get parts for than the 123's, so keep that in mind.

Yeah, but you know, if you decide not to restore it then you can part it out and make more money on those parts! After all, they are getting harder to find!

You might need to sell the grey 300 (Alex??) you brought to NC to my son... just so you have enough money to work on the 115

I couldn't possibly sell it now. After two tries on Ebay, it's destined to be mine for a while longer. But, time will definitely tell. I'm an impule buyer and seller.
