Pittsburgh Area Pelicans -- Avail. to take a look at a vintage MB?

There's a Mercedes on ebay that I've coveted. It's in the Pittsburgh area and, if it's in the condition it appears to be in, is a steal for the price. But I can't in good conscience buy this thing without having eyes on it. If not mine, then some other car nut.

Obviously, there is no liability on your part (i.e. if the engine falls out a week after I buy it, it's not your fault/prob).

If you can be available to take a look, in the next few days, let me know. I'll get in touch with the seller and try to set up a meeting. I don't know exactly where in Pittsburgh area the car is...

I'll stand you a bunch of drinks when/if I come to pick up the car; and if not, we'll come up with some other form of remuneration.

Thanks in advance!

JP

89911 -- Thanks. I'll get on the horn with the seller to try to find out where it is.

bell -- the supercharged frontier is a transportation appliance. It has neither cool nor soul. it's very good at what it does, but what it does is not excite me.

If the car is still around after the 26th, PM me. I will be out west hunting untill then.

I hope this isn't the tan 6.9 located in McMurray--I already checked that one out--nice car, but it has low compresion on one of the cylinders.
