Nahh, I know who he is. Retired Delta pilot who lives in Ft. Myers. Doesn’t like to do major tinker stuff, would rather pay someone to do it. Asked if I would be willing as a part of the deal, as he hasn’t found a local indie for something like this yet.
Wants the car for a toy. Has a brand new Audi or something like it for a daily driver. -D > On Mar 28, 2017, at 9:59 AM, Andrew Strasfogel <astrasfo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > A buyer like that is sure to try and bargain with you again after you make > the repairs. > > On Tue, Mar 28, 2017 at 9:00 AM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com <mailto:mercedes@okiebenz.com>> wrote: > No, I just meant they were physically different.
