Wow, what a rare vehicle!!
Today must be the day to see rare old MB's! I was walking across the street to my car this afternoon, and while waiting to cross the street, a 250c went zooming past. It was essentially mint, and looked awesome. Just like the one in this pic, same color too! I had never seen one before!

Thats a nice clean coupe!
The taillights need to work with a tailgate so hence the vertical shape. Yeah, they don't look like factory 123 wagon units. Could be from any car that would work....like an opel wagon for instance.

Just fold the seats down in a 300TD.
Now you've got your hearse!

I was in Birmingham on Friday! Wish I'd seen it. What time and what freeway were you on when you saw it?
