1987 300E
1987 Mercedes 300E for sale, wounded but alive

I hit a cow on the highway, and with a split second swerve I was able to limit the damage to the front clip, right side...

To drive it, the car would need frame work, a new front clip, and a new radiator assembly (with fans, etc)

Selling whole as a parts vehicle for $1000. Engine runs great, new water pump and recent tune-up. Power steering, power windows, great interior...

95 e320...sold the rest
Ouch...I hit a possum Saturday night, and it was completely gruesome. No damage done, thank god. However, it looked as if I just got involved in a bloody hit-and-run.

1987 300E
ugh

yeah - that is messy. I am just glad that (1) I saw it fast enough to turn slightly and "glance" off it, because I was going 60pmh, and (2) the Benz is such a tough car!!

I hate to even get rid of it, but I can't afford all of the repairs. Still, doors and power windows and interior and drivetrain are all reusable. Hopefully someone out there can use it.

Price reduced to $700 obo. MUST SELL.

I can see how the possum would be hard to miss darting out in front of a car and all...but

How fast was the unfortunate cow moooving?

(good luck on the sale)
