Made my weekly visit to Windsor (Santa Rosa, northern California) "Pick and Pull" today. Since my last visit, they have put two "new" Benzes on the lot:

(1) 1973 450SEL with ratty red leather front seats and tan MB-Tex rear seat and some kind of V-8 gas engine. At the moment it's fairly complete and in pretty good shape (for a car in a junkyard) but that may not last too long depending on the interest of others in this area.

(2) 1984 190E with a five-speed manual transmission, 4-banger gasoline engine. This car is also mostly complete.

Caveat: This notice is only to let those of you who might live in this part of the world what's available at this particular junkyard. I am not associated with this business except as an occasional customer. I might be willing to go fetch something small for you but I am not, for example, in a position to pull the 5-speed and mail it to you. Sorry.

Jeremy
