6 MBs -- piutting out feelers
will follow with pix if folks are interested.
I have 4 124s, a 108, and a 123. need to trim the herd. probably the only one off-limits is the 93 400E with the forged CLK wheels! just put $7500 into fixing the PO's deferred maintenance so it would be prciey. Plus, driving it manually shifting the auto-box, damn, like a poor man's 500E. anyway... also, the 108 may be tough to sell, so, the remainders are a beat-up 123 with 133K, solid enuf body, trashed interior, just put $1500 into it getting it road-ready, huge steel manual sunroof a 124 wagon (1987), white super clean, blue tex, 119K, zero rust, everything works but the converted A/C could probably stand to be juiced. I will do that prior to sale. wheels are the 8-holes from the 400E a standard 124 260E, horrid clear coat, black, beige interior, solid body, ding in LR door can be pulled out easily, 200K, runs and runs and runs a 124 gray market 300E -5 speed - recent black paint, 500E 16" 8-holes, blacked-out grill, super-cool to drive. would like to figure out how to put the tranny into the 400E. it is a bona-fide euro car with the manual a/c, manual rear windows, etc. currently sproting euro headlights to, without wipers. I think pix are here of most of these cars. thanx for reading. I know there might be some flaming for the lack of photos, prices, etc. this is just a tenuous feeler. I just cannot drive all these cars now since my 17 year old son died and he was sorta the driving force for all this MB craziness. oh yeah, got a shell of a 190 out behind the barn, good tranny, 2.6L, most interior parts in the hay mow. also 8 or so 15-hole wheels with decent tires laying around.

Not in the market, but condolences on your loss.
Hopefully all these cars go to good homes.

I am sorry for your loss. I have no words to express it.
I hope the cars get good homes.

Could you put up some price suggestions ? specifically the wagon and the euro 300E stick - those should be sellable more easily...

prices
looking for $3500 for the euro (186K miles)
the 124 wagon will go for $4500 -- it does have a slight crack in the driver's side bolster (MB Tex) -- although with my wife is now taking a hankering to it, dunno if it is still "sellable" also, a few pictures of the euro can be seen by clicking on "kpb's pictures" on one of my posts -- it now has 500E 8-hole wheels instead of the forged CLK's in the picture.

oh yeah, on the euro 124 5-speed
from what I can tell, there were none officially imported in 1987
this one was brought in privately and "federalized" only imported 124 5-speeds were in 1986, 1988 and maybe 1989. then only 300 of them.
