Red face Am I crazy? Does a W121 =$ pit?????

So I am going to "help" this little old lady on Sunday get her 59 190 Ponton running again. She is trying to sell it because she has three other cars. I spoke with her on the phone for about 30min the other night about the car. The last time it was running was about 3 months ago, and the battery (about 10 years old) crapped out.

My problem is, the last time that I went to "help out" a little old lady with a mercedes that is sitting in her driveway, I ended up taking the car home with me.

I have spent too much time in the ponton.org website already, and I am afraid that my wife will "produce a brick" from a spot where there is not supposed to be one, if I come home with another car.

Finally, she said that she has a "garage load" of parts for the car that she also wants to "make go away". IF ANYBODY IS LOOKING FOR A SPECIFIC PART LET ME KNOW and I will try to help you out.

Hoping for the best

I am going to see the car tomorrow. It is in Washington State.

I would love to give you my wifes phone number if it would change her mind.

I will keep you posted.
