The first ad says, "They both ran when they were put in storage approx 25 years ago. They are not running now, but probably wouldn't take much work to get them running again." Not exactly a realist is he? It is hard to say "no" to these old cars when they are so cheap, I almost bought several non-runners that I wouldn't have done a thing with. Thankfully my wallet kept me sane too!

And it looks like it snows there too . Those are in pretty nice shape if that is the original paint.

That '1963' 200 is more like a 66 or 67 200.

The diesels would be what I would really want. Would a 300D turbo fit? LOL Don't I wish I could. I would fix one of those to be my Daily so I could then restore my W115 diesel. Yeah that's it!

Just shot off an e-mail asking if it's still available, and asked for more pictures. Need to see what "needs some body work" entails.
