My "Dream Jag" right there in front (and behind pole) in pic # 1. I've wanted one of those since I built my first model car of one when I was a kid back in the 60's. I wonder what the selling price was that day?

Tyler has a GREAT photo of his W123s original owners. Old dealer pics are hard to come by.

Wow, some of those old cars... the VW fastback... but especially the "SuperBug" with the empi rims.... Man I wanted one of those soooo bad when I was in my teens.

When you see pics like that it makes you realize just how dreadfully boring today's cars are. People kid me 'cause I kinda like the look of the Kia Soul, but I think it's just because it looks like something other than a windtunnel blob.

I think it was within sight of $5000. They were actually fairly reasonably priced cars back in the day.
