Too bad, I bet they will make great parts cars!
Its hard to imagine leaving those two sitting outside. Maybe they wanted the insurance money! Tom W

Yeah, that neighborhood looks exactly like the kind of place I'd expect to find "restored" classic Mercedes
There's got to be more to this story!

The insurance needs to check the condition of the owner's chainsaw - used recently? I live in hurricane territory (Houston), and when a big storm is approaching I always make sure the cars are safe somewhere. Cripes, an empty mall parking garage is safer than on your street under large oaks during a large storm. Why did the idiot leave them on the street?

I've had several cars I considered putting in harms way in order to collect the insurance. Thankfully they were only passing thoughts. Amazing what the mind can conceive and what having ethics/morals values can overcome. Some people just don't the have ethical/moral values to override those devious thought crimes.

Just goes to show you anyone can buy a car. Anyone can also destroy a classic. Sorta reminds you of what you think when you find a nice classic and look at how someone has treated it. I mean how does someone tear up a seat that you sit in?? AND AS FOR PARKING CARS IN THE STORMS ON THE STREET THEY NEED TO BE SHOT.

DAAAAAAAAMMMMNNNN. . .If I didnt have a garage to keep the SL-C in (and provided it was operable) I would have put it in the OIA parking structure to protect it. $17/day is cheap insurance by my book.
Thoes cars, even unrestored are a true gem. . It looks as if Mercy is gonna need to keep his eyes open when in the junk yard, theres gotta be a few rare parts left on thoes cars. I bet the 'hoods' have already snagged all the stars. . .

F...f....f.... FRAUD! What's the odds, two rare MBs, parked conveniently under two giant oaks trees. I've never been to Jacksonville, so I don't know much about that neighborhood, but I have seen some car restoration places in some "questionable" areas of town, like near industries and such. Eh, don't worry, industrial fallout gives fresh Glasurit an extra shine!
