That is super rare. I've never even heard of this color. Buy the car or
you will forever regret it. The asking price is naively low.

So the guy gave me the vin and it turns out it’s Bornite/blackberry. I thought
this color looked a little different than what you typically see. Is this
somewhat an unusual color? I got the guy down to $2200.

I have a bunch of “private” knackers around that specialize in European cars,
but their prices are just stupid.
LKQ isn’t too far from me, but it’s worthless. There are “lot rats” that strip
anything and everything of value on cars as soon as they come in, no doubt to
resell on eBay. So
It’s either a euro or it’s older than a 77 with the manual climate control.

Body shops don't really "repair" anything anymore, they swap on new parts.
The hood and fender probably could have been hammered out and fixed, but that
requires more skill than just replacing them.

I noticed that those Brands were unfamiliar although the prices were great.
I doubt I will be doing a lot of driving as the 300sd has historic plates
which limits me.

Discount tire direct or tires easy. Your best bet for these size tires is
probably going to be tires easy. They have a lot more options but you never
heard of most. Just an FIY I just bought a set of Lexin or something like that
as they were actually H rated tires and seemed to be the best bet.
Windows are an easy fix - the plastic thingie that fits in the channel
needs to be replaced. Definitely has possibilities.

it may not be a huge savings in the end. They do have a great selection though,
more than most retail shops have.

The Michelins on my new '85 300SD have good tread but a 2012 date code and
ride harshly over rough roads due to age related stiffness.
