Re: [MBZ] Copart car

My Polei might be a good candidate for OM603. Runs and drives with a very strong engine and transmission. Transmission shop who did the adjustment was surprised by her response. Something about a Raped Ape at highway speeds. Low four fig clay 1974 450sl - Frosch - Two tone green 1082

Re: [MBZ] Copart car

interesting!  Now that I have an engine from the SDL to use, all the 350SDL rodbenders with bent rods have dried up.   A 124 300D with a bad engine would be a good candidate too.   Maybe in a  year I might have time to do an engine swap.   Too many projects ahead of it now. Kaleb C. Striplin

Depends on if you think you can fix and flip it for $1500 to $2000 in that area. Or if SWMBO or kid needs a car to wreck/burn. Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes March 7, 2018 at 5:31 PM I ended up high bidder again on this but did not meet reserve. My max bid was

I ended up high bidder again on this but did not meet reserve. My max bid was $275. Seller countered at $425. Then came down to $400. I counted at $300. Seller came back with $375. I then offered $325. Then responded with $350. At $350 after auction fees its going to be about $578.
