Re: [MBZ] 1977 300D W123 parts available
I imagine we on the list are kinda like a small food chain/eco system when it comes to our broke-beyond-repair cars. When it's broke beyond repair, we sell parts off of it (sorta like organ donor-ing). Then, adter all the good parts are gone, we give stuff away (sorta like vultures picking at it). Then and only then it's off to the scrap heap (sorta like a dust to dust thing).

Re: [MBZ] 1977 300D W123 parts available
The negative feed back was from a person who sold me a 240D he claimed had 70K miles. I got it home and within an hour found it had 250K. Sued him and won/settled. The negative feed back I got was in responce to my input to eBay. BTW he is banned from eBay because of that little stunt. Yes one negative does drag you down if you have as few transactions as I do.
