it's in very decent condition, small bubble under paint on rear deck lid. missing air cleaner, and it's got what look like 124 rims, with HUGE center caps... they would not let me take any pictures, but I looked it over very well.

I'm surprised that they wouldn't let you take pics. The yards here wouldn't know if you did or not! If they let you in the yard at all (a couple of them won't) they just send you out into the yard and never check on you.

But this is not my cup of tea (with a German car is that "my cup of beer?), car-wise.

big signs everywhere no cameras allowed... stupid really, nobody checks...
but in the holding/processing area, NOBODY is allowed in there without supervision, and NO cameras allowed.

I wish I could find the thread but on this or BW somebody was looking for those large center wheels if they are what I am thinking of. They basically look, and may even be, stock but the center cap is oversized by a wide margin. If you get it I would post those wheels separately to get attention for them as I recall several people seemed intrigued. I don't have this model car but to clarify for others, do you mean replated chrome trim is wrapped or refinished wood trim or is it just removed and wrapped and not refinished whatever it is?

interested

What were they wanting for the car? Where is it? I sent you a message but not sure I did it correctly. Haven't posted that much on site yet, still learning the ropes.
