We cannot see the bumper repairs Tim, they are not in the pics. The primer in the previous pics looks very primerish:p I did note your cleaning efforts while the car is apart

Quite reasonable at $1550.49 door to door for a non runner on wheel dollys and that includes insurance cover, according to the confirmation they sent me, of up to $60k. CEVA where extremely easy to deal with and very reassuring, when I mentioned the car was on dollys the chap coordinating the...

It will be picked up tomorrow on a tilt tray, taken to the CEVA depot and packed into a container for the trip across by rail, it should be here in 8-10 days.

Thank you, I will

Yes, it will start off at my place, and I suspect will spend some time there. The 4 dollys were an absolute bargain at that price, If i could have shipped a second set home for me I'd have grabbed them. And I do recall moving that car, on a sloping slab it wanted to run away downhill, thankfully...

It was an absolute pleasure to meet you today Geoff, And thank you for your help and being so generous with your time:cool: As I mentioned my single malt tasting will depend on Karen sharing:eek: With regard to preparing the car for shipping I'd ventured to the big green sausage sandwich place...

All set for 11am, I sent you a text

I'll send you a message in the morning to confirm time Geoff as I am relying on the seller to open up the "barn"

I'll make room:cool: I'm back there tomorrow at 11am to chock up the suspension for the trip back to Sydney if you can make it, I'll text you in the morning to confirm;)

I'll take you up on your offer Geoff, even if it's only so we meet up, it'd be silly to come all this way and not shake your hand

Were you guys in a blue 116? I spotted it as I left

Thanks Geoff, I was gone by 1:24 so missed you by that much, bugger. I'm here until Tuesday early at this stage. Shaws that you used are not in a position to ship a non runner but I've found CEVA who will. Plan is to go there Monday at 11am and chock up the suspension with some timber and cable...

So true, but she also covets a PT Cruiser:eek:

Nope, suspension is down and fuel pump expired, but it looks solid, is very straight and is complete

Well I bought the car, a W109015, the 300SEL with the 3 litre M189 engine, one of 2396 total production, now to get it back to Sydney :eek: And I got in trouble from Karen for not buying her a Ponton:rolleyes:

It's not advertised as an auction Geoff, but as a sale where all potential buyers turn up at the same time and look at and make offers on cars, oh, wait

I'm here in Perth on behalf of a friend, to do his bidding so to speak, no new cars for me, well maybe no new cars...I must be strong, maybe

Congratulations! Good buy, when my 126 dies (if?) I'll look at a W140 before a W220 I'd think

Tell him the price son! Tell him the price!

No, I don't bake, that's Karen's area of expertise, yesterday it was mini hamburger macaroons, sorry about the slightly fuzzy phone pic
