One of the worst cars I ever made the mistake of buying came from Tampa.

have looked under it better. That thing was like Swiss cheese everywhere

Yes, I agree. I think the SLC is a nicer car. We are clearly in the minority

I guess I like the nostalgic look of the pagoda-like roof on the SL's
hardtop. I keep scheming for ways to get that on the SLC. Luckily, I sold
it before getting the torch and hammers out. The hardtop welded onto the SL
would be my ultimate 107 (with an OM603 engine).

So leave the hardtop on. The SL, top-on, is a nice little coupe.

the SLC, said it just didn't look the same. Would _never_ have
taken the top off. (Ended up with a Z4, as I
The same as the 220D.
The bigger issue is finding somebody with that sort of patience and pocket book

Maybe.
I put money on the SL owners being willing to pay for a reasonable example of a
SLC to use as parts over somebody plunking down hard cash to then have to pay
five times purchase price to sort it out.

Nice color but very expensive to restore. Those peeling louvers are a

Wow. Parts car is kinda harsh isn't it? Looks like a nice body that could
be put back to a reasonable operating condition and enjoyed for many

Nope. I am not going to waste good cash on a turd like that car. The fellow
has no clue as to the value of his rust heap. I looked at a number of cars in

The w113 is a bit more desirable than the r107. Granted his price is high for
