If he really owns the car, a replacement for a lost title is $15 from the state 
if you order it and pay online you have it in a few days.

2023-01-22 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
I was going to comment on the "5 cylinder 240D" but saw in the pics that it has 
had an engine swap. That's 

I have always heard of the old Mercedes manual transmissions being described 
more like a "broomstick in a bucket of rocks" than "buttah" but never driven 
one myself.

Cosmetically looks kind of rough but might be worth something if it's not rusty.
