So you mean my perfectly rust-free, mostly-original-paint 280SEL 4.5 might be worth something?!
The market in California is clearly different than everywhere else. Here, rust-free, running, decent looking 108s are on Craigslist regularly for months and people can't give them away. $2500 seems to be the magic number when they disappear. Of course they all start with $7k+, but then creep down when they realize nobody will pay that. That friend of mine who bought the 115: it was a 76 300D, no rust, original paint and interior, basically nothing wrong with it apart from a toasted prop shaft support and seat pads, for $1k. He'll need to spend 3k to make it nice, but it will be worth it at the end. D. Jaime wrote: >Which brings up the question asked earlier on the list: How much is a >W108 4.5 worth?

If there is no major issues, $5000-8000+. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
