this one has I think 280k maybe.  I suspect its going to need a new oil 
pan though, no oil showing on the dipstick and looks like the pan got 
scraped pretty good and may be leaking.  Cant tell for sure yet.

Finally got around to messing with the 95 E300 with the messed up front 
end.  Pulled the old radiator out.  Only difference I can see between it 
and say, a 87 radiator is the little nipple on top for the overflow.  I 
guess I will just probalby order a new radiator.  Searching car-part.com 
came up with around $150 or so for a used one, for 220 I can just get a 
new one.  I banged and pulled the top support back into shape somewhat, 
and got the headlights aligned pretty good.  Got the new hood installed 
and it closed OK, and looks pretty decent although does still have a 
slight gap on the drivers side between the grille area and the headlight. 
That light still needs to come out a bit.  Not too bad though for a $1k 95 
E300.
