I sold him one of my better cars for very cheap. He will pay me payments for a year till its paid off. I basically put together a deal that he could afford and not be just giving him another car. His car could be fixed and put back on the road and I may do it, I hate to have it bite the dust but it does need a lot of other deferred maintenance done to it and some major suspension work.

Re: [MBZ] Kid wrecked the car
Yes I do. I have all the parts to put this one back together, but then it would still need a ton of work. I have some really nice ones that could use the engine and trans out of this car.

Re: [MBZ] Kid wrecked the car
I just worked him a deal to sell him a 99 e430. He is not very mechanically inclined. This was his first wreck since he started driving and the lady he hit slammed on her brakes in the middle of the highway. I really don't feel like fixing this car to be honest and could use the parts on other cars.

Re: [MBZ] Kid wrecked the car
Kid read ended somebody today. See photos. It took out the hood and pushed radiator etc into the fan. I could probably pull it back out and replace the hood. Wondering if it's worth it. Car needs a complete front end rebuild probably, rear end probably needs work too. Shocks are shot. Windshield is cracked. It blew the passenger side airbag but not drivers side. I wonder if I should put it back together or just retire it and let him buy some other car off me and let he pay it out.
