Check out this Benz I saw today

Dealer is asking $50K for this one...........no way they'll get that, but as far as W126's go this is about as good a collector as they get. Final year of production with most desirable color, engine, interior, etc. and in showroom condition.

 

We had a '79 280CE that my father bought from a builder he worked for, in '82. I remember the thud of those doors well. The builder replaced it with a '83 560 SEC, I think. His son has that car now. It's still in beautiful condition. My brother is doing the work for the builders sons now.

 

Nah, I just have to see if I can figure out where pictures, dashcam videos, anything like that was shot at.

I could tell you about my illustrious career with an alphabet soup agency doing photo analysis, but then I would have to kill you.

 

When I was around 20, I had points on my license from a few speeding tickets. One more and I was in jeopardy of losing my license for a month or two. Purchased a 1980 MB 240D sedan with a 4 speed manual. Problem solved. It was impossible to get a speeding ticket with that thing. It didn't accelerate, it accumulated speed...right up until it's max of maybe 65. Drove that until some points came off and sold it to some guy for his daughter to commute to college.
The only way that thing would break highway speed limits was if it was shoved out the back of a C130 with no shute.
Served it's purpose well.

 

Let me guess, SPCA?

 

OCD.

 

What flavors you pick up at Mad Vapes?

 

I always suspected Steeltoe was a 61 year old white man
