Oh, FWIW, I plan on bringing a large trailerload of parts to sell or swap, so bring your shopping lists folks! And any parts you'd like to get rid of!

I'm really busy today, but I'll try and call on those parks today or tomorrow....

Wish I'd kept my trailer, I'd show up with most of my parts car. Good idea though, I'll probably load the trunk with some of my "don't think I'll need 'em" parts.

Man I have an attic full of W123 parts and another parts car to break down and move upstairs. Plus I know the location of two other W123's that I would like to get.....one for parts (as if I really needed them) and I believe would just needs a transmission (which I have). This is a sickness...I already have three running W123's and a W210.

Perhaps is there are certain parts that others would want a list could be made and then we could bring those parts.

I will start:
1. seat spring box with no broken springs (of two parts cars I only had one good one and I still need one)
2. possibly a rear seat back in galaxy blue.

Maybe we can do this in another thread, to keep the GTG planning thread from getting too cluttered?

Let me get some info on dates and availability for parks tomorrow, then we can settle a date..... Then I'll start a roll-call thread and ask the mods to sticky it for the time being..... We can post parts requests there....

Sound good?
