I'm infatuated with the late 60's / early 70's 200 series Benz

Damn uponone, that's cool of you. I'll hit you up hopefully this weekend, I may have to go check it out, even though it's not a quad lamp.

Edit: does the sign in the background say what I think it says?

I never paid any attention to these cars and now all of a sudden I am seeing them.

There's one I pass by all the time near me. I stopped by and got some pics and info. today for you.
73' Mercedes 280 Inline 6
Said it's been sitting for a few years, but he charged the battery and let it run a few weeks ago, and started it today for me.
He said asking $1,500
I asked if $1,500 was firm or o.b.o he hesitated, so I said, bring cash and you'll talk, he said yes.
Had the title there.
PM me if you want his contact info.

Shit, I thought I was about to get flamed for pointing that shit out.

I can decide on the black trim. I'm pretty sure I hate the everloving hell out of it, but it's almost interesting.

Heh, I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out. Not a big fan of it either, I just liked the paint scheme and stance.

It would look better if the rear was tucked minimal, as in:

I like lowered cars about as much as anybody, but I'm struggling to get into the intentional ridiculous camber thing. At the end of the day it just looks like a car in a junkyard set up on some old wheels.





And yes I understand the MB is a swingarm car, but if you're already doing a shitload of suspension work, swap in an 8" Ford and weld up a four-link.

I agree with you. I will be bagging one or leaving it alone. I dont care if the back wheel gets some crazy camber when it is layed out, since I would be airing up to drive.

Maybe a jag rear end would work better, but fuck a bunch of that.

I give a pass on old bugs, but anything else it looks like shit.

I thought so too. I was hoping you werent going to say "best part of the whole car dawg" or some bullshit. See my post #102.

Oh, it just looks like hammered dog shit.

Its interesting for sure. Im not sure that I do or dont like it. Hate the wheels, but the rest is meh. With steelies, wide whites and some spyders it would be better, IMHO.

180-degrees from the others, but I thought it was pretty sweet.

[Baron Von Crowder]

This one is pretty reasonable if it isnt trash. It has some odd options, may actually be an import euro model. No ac and cloth interior, and what looks like hella city lights.
