So I'm at the U-Pull again today, and a guy asks me if I want to buy his '79 280E. Not I, I say. I recommended he pursue fixing its bad fuel pump and other little things before sale, as otherwise he won't get squat for it. He agreed. His wife hates the car, he loves it but it isn't his daily driver. Baby blue, cream interior, nice shape, low (I forget the figure) miles.
And yes, I did forget an item or two at the yard. Dinky ones that aren't worth a trip. Crap. -- Jim
