I know from the first post about the headlights and bumpers was largely
in jest, but having seen the thread about "shopping in Europe", maybe
its simpler just for somebody to get the car and then just part out what
ever people want.

I am in Germany, so there is the normal shipping, plus what I want. I am
not sure if this is economical in the long run unless enough can be gotten
from the parts.

I don't have a place to part it out. The local MB garage has it now and
they are looking and what can be done with it. I myself would like to
keep the baroque wheels for a future car since they are not so frequent.

Just a thought.
