No rust, good paint and interior if it's the same as it was 3 years ago. Would still have been sitting in the shop I'm sure.

So today a 240d parts car turns up on CL with a familiar sounding story. It's listed at $1k. I email the guy and the story really sounds familiar. I go back thru my emails and it's this guy. So looks like he still has the car. So help me out folks, from what I describe is it worth $1k? He is one of these old guys that's going to set a price and not budge a dime. My grandfather was one of those types. >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> >> _______________________________________ >> http://www.okiebenz.com >> >> To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ >> >> To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: >> http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com >> _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
