The guy low balled me and I wanted to make my wife happy. C'est la vie. He's got 4 boys and $500 for 2 parts cars sounds like a good summer. Goodbye to the Taxi that served me so well and the Canuck I never got to drive. Time to change my sig.

It's a crappy feeling when you lose a diesel MB. I'm done with my parts car, (completed manual trans swap) but i can't bring myself to call a junk collector to haul it away.

I know how you feel. Scar is out front smashed to smithereens, and I just haven't been able to pull the trigger......

The 300D I bought for $200 was listed as a parts car in my local CL. When I went to look at it, it seemed too nice to let suffer it to such a fate. My goal is to save it from a parts car fate and put it back on the road.
