Please?!? She comes with all the spare stuff that will increase your inventory in that model. Bring a large enclosed trailer. I have crap in two garages. The plan was to get her as close to #2 condition as possible with original parts.

[MBZ] PnP adventures
Summer has deserted us. Once more we are seeing October weather with temps around 11c. Succulent weather for a fish. Not good for hitting the PnP, but I had to see if I could source steel wheels for Gump to roll into greener pastures. I want the bundts I refinished with the new tires. So, I head over to the PnP. They have spruced it up since last I shopped. Only took a tire iron, since I only needed wheels. Driving up there, the outside temp shows 56f. FML. Raining, not drizzle, but real rain. Did not bring my wellies, since it was going to be only overcast. At least the entry fee has dropped to $1. Head out into the yard and Where the heck are all the wheels? Rack of tires all priced out expensive like. The rims are stacked up in the processing year looking like they will be used to make more car stands. Hmm. Lot of the cars in the yard have an excess of stands under them, unlike the tripod configuration last time I was in attendance. BUT WHERE ARE THE WHEELS? not a car there with wheels on them. They are being placed sans wheels now. poop Wander the yard anyway in hopes maybe a few spares survived the culling. Found one. A bundt. In good condition, but not another benz wheel to be found. Many a high end car is seen in the rows. Four jags, a 126, a 116, an SLC, 201, 124, high end audis, land rovers, spyders, and mid level sedans, not the low end junkers. Head scratcher this one. Decided I did not need yet another bundt, as I have enough for three cars. Better scrounge someplace else, this yard has become to deluxe for me. clay 1972 220D - Gump - She is green, simple and runs and runs 1995 E300D - Cleo - Used by the Queen of Denial POS 1987 SDL - Beware Nigerian Scammers ___ 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://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Be glad you have a yard to pick from. Around here, there are none. There is one yard, about 80 miles (130 km) away that sometimes has a car or two.
