I thought these might be of interest to people.  How times have changed. 😜

If I did I would go back 15 years and buy the US headlight doors at $150 each.

I remember that list.
In 1972 I purchased my 220D on the Europeon delivery plan.
For those of you who do not know what the European Delivery plan is, it is a way
to purchase a M/B car at your local dealer and you pick it up in Stuttgart or anywhere else
in Europe.
The main feature is, it is cheaper by the thousands. As in my case the dealer tried to
make me purchase the car from him, because he is not making a bigger profit for himself.
Also when you deal with the dealer on the Plan, you deal with owner,no salesperson.

I did have some of the features on that list, especially the leather seats.
I still have the car and it is rotting away in the woods.
I found another chasis and I traded in the engine to M/B for a rebuilt engine and put it in the second chasis.
In my garage now, still in good condition.
