No to my knowledge there are no good yards near West Chester. I've made a few runs up to Harry's U pull it in Hazelton, PA. But that place is always spotty for Mercedes. I'm open for suggestions on yards in the Philly/S. NJ/ or Delaware area.

I came across this by picking up an item I won on ebay for my 108. The seller works in a gas station near Montclair NJ. He saw my 300TD and asked if I needed any parts. He showed me a 240D that was a stolen vehicle recovery and was smashed up in the back. The interior is just fair and the engine is beat. It does have a manual transmission but who knows what condition that is in? The car has over 300K miles on it. The seller wanted $400 for the trans setup including him removing it from the car. If any one is interested I will pass on the contact info.
