CL alert, 84 300td...

http://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/cto/2086478402.html

I'm posting this so I don't buy it and end up with two of them parked on the street in front of my house. Save me from myself!
I'm still going to check it out on thursday, he said he wants it gone by friday and seems serious about it. Anyone in the northeast interested in splitting it for a parts car? I would love to do it but don't have the space...

If he found a frame on that car, it's had a lot of modification.

Oh thats quite close to me too....Im not in the wagon business, otherwise Id be game. I already have a parts car too :-(

Although it looks like it could be a fine daily driver as is with a little TLC...or a moneypit.

I like my sedans just fine, but why do i always swoon when i see a wagon??!!

wow, that's a great deal. it's had THOUSANDS of dollars put into it. and he's only asking 750-OBO?
of course the work done on it was "two summers ago..." no mention of how it runs, no mention of what's been done to the car since he got it.

LBJ and UBJ changed alone makes it worth asking price. throw in the hitch and the crossbars and wow what a deal.
I'm concerned about the "small rust spots" but the car certainly sounds like a bargain.
I've got three wagons already, but this sure should be snagged up by one of us!
