This will sound really negative but I don't mean to discourage you.
I wish you good luck with the car sale and the medical situation.

I was watching '87 wagons about two years ago and was looking to pay a little less than you paid and was hoping for a car with lower mileage.

Glitz really seems to boost the price on MB eBay auctions. If you do not promote the car, it will show in the final price. A good many of the cheapest cars on eBay seem to be from near NYC, that may not help you.
