I bought my 76 300d for $100. It needed some work. Belonged to a friend of mine's dad. He passed on and the younger brother drove it for a few years (this explains the baggies with the myterious seeds I found under the back seat). Until he ran it out of diesel and did not have the patience to figuire it out. He was more concerned with his 73 Dodge Charger. It is not a perfect car but extremely salvageble, most of the car was intact less hood star etc.I got it running and drove it for a few months. I expect to put a few bucks and some sweat into it. Needs a face-lift, boob-job, lower back surgery and an occasional dose of Viagra. My love life has improved as well,I just tell the ladies I now own a Mercedes! I don't tell them it is in pieces in my garage until I restore it. (sep 01). Any suggestions on how to handle the onslaught of female attention? Maybe I'll just drive it and wait for the girl who tells me it's old and smells like diesel but she likes it anyway.
