More of the latter than the former, I believe.
If they did any research at all they would have an idea of what the market is.
It’s like the rednecks that were selling the 300SD near me. They hadn’t done a
bit of research, they based their ask on the fact that Dad had paid $13,000 for

Lost a couple of cylinders there. The “poor man’s” 300E. A stripper W124.

There are some fairly cheap displays (~$30 or so) on AliExpress that plug into

I got the manual from Jim Cathey. He moved the file to where I could
download it
It’s clearly become far more expensive to repair and worth far less as a result
of it now being a non-runner.
I’ll give you $500 for it. OK, in the interest of it being the holidays and
because I’m feeling generous, $1000.

This reminds me that I have a collection of MB paper manuals and books that
I'm not likely to ever use again, as well as several special tools. Is
there any interest in them in this group? If so, I'll catalog them and post
the list.
I think that the Bosch fuel injection book is what Kaleb needs now
I might be interested in that stuff.

Go to https://www.w116.org/tech/
The manuals there are downloadable as PDFs. They include:
Workshop Manuals
Passenger Car Series 116 (32.
Yeah I've been poking around there. Something is misconfigured on their server.
Maybe file permissions. Some of the PDF links work, some don't.
