Yes, well the internet has moved the sleazy car seller from the corner lot to e-bay without any increase in ethical content in general. No flames-I have family in the car business. Caveat Emptor is still the rule, even with pictures and descriptions. Dwight
Dwight Giles, Jr 1979 240D auto, 250K + miles 1990 300D 2.5t, 130K miles Wickford, RI Bissell Cove Quahog & Auto Salvage Co. - Subject: Re: [MBZ] HOLY crap http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4649663320 Everybody should look at this one. Read the description, the car is falling apart rusty. Look at the pictures, all shiny and black. If it weren't for spring perches falling off and dropping the nose to the ground, the car would look very good in distant pics on eBay. Put a jack under it, lose the honest description, and some sucker would pay $5k or more for it. Reminds me of something I read in a syndicated automotive column my local paper runs. The author bought a '63 stingray coupe on eBay, beautifully restored per description, nothing to disprove it in the pics. Paid $30k plus shipping for a total piece of crap. The "restoration" consisted of doing a very shoddy job of covering up crash damage.
