OK so I picked up another old car, a 1972 Mercedes Benz 250C/8.

Here is what it should look like An exceptional 1972 Mercedes 250C Coupe! but I have hopes for it.

Same guy I got my 280SE from and at only $400 even if I just part it out I will do ok.

Kat took one look at it as we were taking it off the trailer and said "it's ugly" but less than 3000 were made and imported that year.

It could be a beautiful thing. You have your work cut out for you.For now I agree with Kat.

it also has a factory exploded diagram book of the entire car. I think the book is worth 50 or 60

i think it is really cool owen, any old car has character that alot of new

Nice car
