Would you buy a non running w140 for $500?
Its a 92 s420.
Over 200k on the clock, need upper engine harness, maybe ECU. Po put a used trans in the car, and the car never started since. Little/ no rust, but a poor respray paint job. Interior is decent.

I would buy it to part out.
Could double or triple your money. I would not buy it to make into a daily driver.

Would anybody have any interest in buying it? Im not interested in another project or parts car, I was thinking it might be an easy fix. (engine harness) From what I gather from the search function, This car will bankrupt me..
If anybody has any interest let me know, he wants the car gone.....

Buy it, tinker with it, if you can't make it right, part it out.
