my 300E 1986...gone but 300D "Roll out!!!"

well i guess i may have to part my 300E 86 benz due to a severe accident. hopefully the insurance people will think that its worth fixing because i really love this car so much. i had clipped this ladies camery while doing 20mph. she was on a highway going at least 50mph and i guess i didnt see the intersection to the highways...damm boulder, CO...its never lit there on those highways when theres an intersection. anyhow its my fault b/c i ran the red light and had badly damaged the front left fender...concaved in in the front. The hood is all bent up on the left side and the right fender is bent too from the impact shock...but slightly. all of the accessories on the left side of the fender (headlights, signal lights wiper, grill, bumper) is litterally disintegrated. i do believe that the ABS system is ok still but who knows about the A/C canister..

I 'm just glad that i'm ok and alive...these 300E's are the Panzer tanks of Germany..heavily armored and built tough for whatever hill to take on....i owe my life to it!!!.. however its still a bummer that its out of commision now..it looks like a simple frame job and a new radiatore fix. i hope the engine is still ok. How much do you think it will cost to fix this bad boy with a paint job and new accessories in the front bumper?...the steering is still in perfect condition however..

well since that car is out of service, I guess its time to get summer cruising down with my 1978 300D benz.. from the words of ludacris...its time to "Roll out"..."Roll out" ...."Roll out"....

ahhaha....just tryin to be the pimp in the old school benzo. But i do love the smell of diesle.

just wondering if there is someone around denver, CO that will do under the table work on this '86 300E mercedes. geico states that they want to total the car now because damages are more than 7000.00. i think i can get it going with at least 1500.00 in parts and the rest in labor...

can anyone suggest any ideas...i will try to post some pictures of what the reck looks like
