Screw that.  So the rules are based on where the vehicle is titled?

Otherwise, I’m out. Makes no sense to use a broker for the stuff I would be 
interested in.

Re: [MBZ] CoPart weirdness

2018-05-26 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
You really need to review the license requirement page.  It will list 
who can bid on what based on state and based on what sort of title it 
has.  In some states, public can bid on anything. In other states, 
public can only bid if it has a clear title.  In others, public can only 
bid if it has a salvage title.  This does not seem to depend on what 
state the auction if physically located in, it depends on what state the 
vehicle is titled in.  For example, I once had a car I was bidding on in 
Texas which public can only bid on salvage title vehicles.  This vehicle 
had a clear Oklahoma title so I was able to bid even though it Texas I 
could not.  I could bid because the title was in OK.  I ended up getting 
outbid though.

[MBZ] copart $300 140 diesel

2018-05-13 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
I am getting closer to finishing up the copart 300SD with the factory 
crate motor.  Got the condenser swapped out and ac charged.  Changed all 
the filters and the oil. Air is now ice cold.  Next thing I need to do 
is motor mounts.  Aside from that I need to address the read deck 
speakers and replace the ugly aftermarket rubber whip antenna with the 
correct one.  I also want to explore putting the radio system back to 
factory.  One thing I did notice is the odometer appears to be dead.  I 
don't think I have seen that in a 140 before.  Anybody done 140 odometer 
gears? I usual place does not specifically list 140 gears so maybe I 
have to pull it apart and see if they have the right tooth count available.


I had it sitting in the driveway running and the wife came out and asked 
if it was gas instead of diesel.  It is that quiet.

[MBZ] Copart 190D

2018-04-17 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
Well I won the auction for the copart 190D that had traveled the world.  
I put in a max bid of $475 last night, auction was today. When the 
auction started I watched it for about an hour until the 190 came up.  
Most of the cars were getting very little action. Some late model 
wrecked cars were only going for a couple hundred bucks.  There as a 05 
CLK 500 I think it was that was a convertible that barely made it to 
$1k.  Its only issue listed was minor dents and scratches.  The auction 
on the 190 started out at $225 as somebody bid online today.  No action 
happening, finally somebody started bidding.  Auction ended up at $425 
with me as the winner.  I still think its going to be a fair deal as 
from what I can tell the car looks to be in really good shape except for 
faded paint on the hood.  If the car turns out to be decent I will 
probably turn it into my work car.  The manny is a 5 speed in these, 
correct?  What kind of mileage do they get?

[MBZ] CoPart

2018-04-11 Thread Mitch Haley via Mercedes
I took a 3 hour lunch break yesterday to check this out and bid on it. 
https://www.copart.com/lot/27896988

It has the parts I need to fix my 2100 mile car that's slowly depreciating in 
my garage. 
(except for the side curtain airbags, seatbelts and hood)
It's the same color and bodywork, (slightly rare RS nose/tail/side ground 
effects package) and even the same month of production, so there was a very 
good chance of the black granite metallic paint matching. 

I wanted it pretty bad until I saw the dent in the hood, still bid $2600 on it 
at 2pm the day before the sale, I was the first person to even bother bidding 
on it. By the time I got home last night it was sitting at $2650. By morning it 
was $2700, which means that yesterday some other retail idiot with access to a 
pro account kept raising his bid by $50 until he beat me and then somebody else 
outbid him overnight. Sold for $4550, which is a lot more than I paid for my 
less damaged 2016. That makes the 2nd time I found a RS the right color, and 
the 2nd time it went for at least 50% more than I expected. I'm not going to 
pay over $5500 out the door for a parts car and then buy seat belts and airbags 
too. Somebody must have really wanted to restore it. 

Mitch.

[MBZ] Copart 560

2018-04-09 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
They keys arrived today. I threw a battery in it and cranked on it but it did 
not start. Darn. Did not sound like the fuel pump was running. I would think I 
should be able to hear it for a second or 2 when it quits cranking.

I would think a person who would purchase a benz would not be swayed by the 
fashions and need to upgrade to something that may not provide the level of 
service you expect for transport.  Diesel, probably paid off long ago, so only 
investment would be in keeping it on the road.  It could be serviced most 
anyplace in the world, unlike Detroit iron or the disposable nature of Asian 
rides.  A very forward thinking commitment to quality, much as a spouse, but 
more reliable.

CoPart doesn't guarantee anything.
They give it their 'best effort', and you get what you get. 
Like when my dealer bought his wife a Buick, and the loader driver managed to 
shove a fork through a back tire and mangle a wheel. Oops, sucks to be you, 
glad we aren't responsible for the damage we did to your car after you paid for 
it. Then a month or two later he was ordering a wheel bearing for his wife's 
car. 
Hey, that isn't the same wheel the yard monkey forked, is it?
You know, it IS that same wheel. I wonder if they hit it hard enough to ruin 
the bearing too.

Usually they're zip tied to the column until shortly before the sale, then 
stuck in a filing cabinet in an envelope with the VIN on it. I've had to check 
out keys for cars I wanted to PPI, and they never had trouble finding the keys. 
Made me hand over my driver's license in exchange for the keys. 

Maybe somebody misfiled the envelope, and they were too busy to care about a 
guy from out of town who only bought one car from them?

Just ask the dealer to bill Copart for the cost of running a new key.

little while ago, so we will see what they say.  I do recall seeing some 
disclaimer somewhere on their website about keys not guaranteed even if 
it says it has keys, so I am sure it will go nowhere.  I can guarantee

[MBZ] Copart 560sel

2018-04-02 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
I just picked up that 560 from copart I got for $350. This copart was the least 
organized and most unfriendly one I have been to so far. I go in and pay. They 
give me title. Then I have to proceed to a window to pickup keys. Most of them 
have the key in the car zip tied to the steeeing column. So the the little 
minority girl goes back looking for the keys. Comes back says can’t find them 
it’s not running and driving and walks off. Ok. Well the listing says it has 
keys. So I also where the loading area is, she points outside and said out 
there. So I stand out there a while and eventually the fork lift driver showed 
up. I give him the sheet and he brings the car and drops it on the trailer.

Now on to the car. This very clean. The paint is very nice. Interior is decent 
except for a couple of stains on the carpet and the front seats are going to 
need new covers. I knew the passenger seat was cracked but it’s also separated 
at the bottom and not attached to the frame. The drivers side was ok except for 
a huge hole in the side of the leather and it is also not attached to the 
frame. Front tires look new. The spare has never been out of the trunk and the 
tool kit is still in the plait bag. There were now books or anything in the 
car, and no key in the car. Engine looks very clean and dry. It’s got about 
180k and was probably taken care of. It had a for sale sign in it still for 
$4800. I guess the guy was trying to sell it, then probably donated it.

No idea it if will run, I have to get a key first. Will the dealer order a key 
for me if I have the title and bill of sale but it’s not transferred yet?

I don’t know what happened with It but it was at $300 this morning. I bet it 
didn’t get any bids and didn’t meet reserve.

124's and 210's seem to be pretty unloved for as robust as they are. Better for 
us (anyone who does work on their own cars) to find bargains on nice, easily

That's par for the course. 
When I picked up a car with a flat tire, I wouldn't let him load it for me, as 
I wanted to switch the wheel first. Then I couldn't start it, so next time he 
drove by I waved him over and he picked it up and loaded it for me. 

Usually you just get scuffed up plastic belly pans out of the deal. 
The drivers are usually talented, and put the forks dead center under the car. 
But stuff happens sometimes, and they disavow all responsibility. 
Last year my salvage guy bought a Buick for his wife, and they forked a back 
wheel hard enough to break the rim. Then right after she started driving it, a 
wheel bearing failed, the same wheel that they forked.

That one isn't available for public bidding, you need to be registered as a 
licensed business or a foreign customer who's going to ship it out of the USA.

You can go through the sign-up process for free, then when you're logged in you can add 
cars to your watchlist. When in your watchlist or on the search screen, you can check 
"no license required" in the top section of the filter options on the left, and 
watch 90% of the cars disappear.

If you try to bid on that car while logged in as an unlicensed bidder, it'll 
take you to a 'find a broker' menu. You should be able to find a company that 
will set you up to bid under their license and process the title paperwork for 
$200-300. Watch out for some of the brokers who list their fee at $100-200, 
then when you go to their web site and read the fine print there are other fees 
not included in the $100 markup.

This is a E320 flood car https://www.copart.com/lot/41438967/Photos

Remind me again of how this place works.  I am going to register.  So you
can bid, I see that process but to know what you actually have to pay you
have to be logged in, which I am not yet as I need to scan my license and
send it in.

Details please.  I'm thinking if I could buy one of these cars for
cheepcheep, esp a flood car, I could get this thing fixed up to keep or
flip or unload on Kleb and charge him a lot more.

That one isn't available for public bidding, you need to be registered as a 
licensed business or a foreign customer who's going to ship it out of the USA. 

You can go through the sign-up process for free, then when you're logged in you 
can add cars to your watchlist. When in your watchlist or on the search screen, 
you can check "no license required" in the top section of the filter options on 
the left, and watch 90% of the cars disappear. 

If you try to bid on that car while logged in as an unlicensed bidder, it'll 
take you to a 'find a broker' menu. You should be able to find a company that 
will set you up to bid under their license and process the title paperwork for 
$200-300. Watch out for some of the brokers who list their fee at $100-200, 
then when you go to their web site and read the fine print there are other fees 
not included in the $100 markup.

Check out the inventory at Don's in Ladson, he's got a '"brace" of W210
cars.  I think this is the yard that we were planning to go knackering at
next.

[MBZ] copart process?

2017-10-09 Thread Rich Thomas via Mercedes
I looked at the local LKQ inventory for a car that might have a front 
fascia for this E300, nothing there.  So I looked at Copart and they 
have 2 cars in Columbia, a coupla hours up the road.


Looks like a bunch of flood Benzes, and there is one that doesn't look 
too bad for a donor.
