Those wire wheels have to be ridiculously heavy, and I did say I would not allow the abomination to continue, but if someone is willing to pay good money for them I wouldn't trash them. I would stipulate that you can never post a picture of them, though.

I haven't even bought the car yet, and may not want to if the price is too high. I know he's thinking there is at least 1-1.5k in good parts he can sell immediately, then slowly trickle more as time goes by. I don't exactly want to test the friendship of my main parts supplier either, since I get most things for free.

Well, that goes from being a really good deal to just fairly normal $$$$ for a fairly normal W123 [with hideous shoes]. Whatever happens you can't insult your parts supplier......
