I'm in.
Why don't we make it a giant PP event somehow? It would be great to meet the gang. Maybe some people might even come in their diesel motor coach/airport shuttle

Want to move them to TN? I'd let you store them out in the back. NO ONE would see them (unless they did a fly over).

I have an "appointment" scheduled for this thursday to meet with an inspector...
I may be able to reschedule it... I got a letter from the city stating that they recieved a complaint concerning "motor vehicles and debris" the meeting is to verify the complaint... over 45 vehicles... I think it'll verify... I DO have an 87TD that will need to go! and an 84 240D 5SPEED with red cloth interior! (and a broken camshaft...) an 84 300D turbo diesel with a 4 speed attached to the engine, but no shifter, pedals or driveshaft... also, several parts cars, 123/126... 2 123 wagons... both non running. a pair of chevy 6.2 trucks...

I am available EVERY DAY FROM NOW UNTIL THEY ARE ALL GONE!
am, pm, weekends, any time. I want them all properly in the hands of benz lovers before I'm forced to have junk dealers hauling... help stripping and storing parts for future sale/supply would be fantastic.

I wish I was closer so I could help you strip those cars! Do you have a list of what you have in your inventory?
