Some quality old Benzes in the North-West!

Re: Potch Benzes
Those Mercedes coupes was a work of art, I just love the 280/300 coupes. We have a old local lady that has a 280 coupe and a convertible. Her husband was the owner of the local MB dealer some years ago, she drives one or the other car from time to time. But everybody makes way when she is coming, she park by brail. The front and back bumpers on both cars have lots of dents. She gets offers on a weekly basis for the cars, but she says they can fight over it when she is gone.
Thsoe pick ups are the bomb, lets see- 4 inch body lift, 20 inch rims, 32 inch tires, a 6.3 liter V8, yeap I might be in. No they are beautiful
