Three Cars in Three Days: A New Personal Best!

Hello All,
What a week. I somehow ended up buying three MBs in three days from three completely different sources. I have most certainly lost my mind. And quite possibly my home when I am found out by the powers that be.
On Wed morning I picked up a totally rusted out 1979 Euro W123 gasser w/ gorgeous interior (PM w/ parts requests if you need anything). Wed afternoon I talked the local thruway towing company out of a 1990 190E 2.6 (auto ) that had been abandoned by some little rich kid. For a C note ( ) I got the car (droppped off at my house no less!), two tuxes, a virtual gameboy, a computer printer, and all manner of other debris that a rich kid can accumulate in his car. Pic of the car below. A couple of quarts of oil and a fresh battery and she fired right off! Possible bad spring or totalled shock in the left front and one hole in the drivers seat, but otherwise nice. No title yet, but hopefully one can be procurred as it is way too nice to strip.
Then Friday I bought "Betty", a beautiful 1983 300TD (same color as my first MB wagon; navy over palomino) for a song. All she's missing is the front and rear seat carpeting. Just have to get out to Boston to pick her up.
Anyone have any contact info for some kind of Mercedes "AA". I am begining to run out of space in my signature.
What's y'alls record for car purchases in a short time?

Cheers,
-M-
