Just got another one
Just picked up an '86SDL with a busted tranny. Just over 300k on the clock. Starts and runs very well, body in great shape (no rust!), paint a little faded, interior pretty nice as well.
Paid $350. Wondering what to do with it. Should I get a used transmission or a Sun Valley rebuilt and put it back on the road, or part it out? I know there's nothing more expensive than a cheap Mercedes, but she's just so sweet sitting there. Kinda tears me up to pull her apart. Still with the seller -- pics to follow.

I'd put it back on the road! SDL's are not easy to come by!

I wish I had a place (and a job) that would afford me to purchase multiple old Benz's.
When I get my degree, I'm going to.

Congratulations on your new ride. Fix it Man!
Rebuilt tranny is only around $1100 if you put it in yourself. Not that hard. Then you will have a good car.
