Default Another LW 300

I just made an offer on a clean leather non running LW 300 close to me. It has 150k miles and looks to be a nice car. I just happen to have a good running engine and transmission for this car. Not that I am bored but I have another grandson that likes my L200/5. Maybe it is time to be a wagon master again. LOL

Grab it and go, Andy. I'm sure you'll have it going in no time. How many grandkids do you have? LOL

Picked up a creampuff today. The car is beautiful, never been hit. No rust, 95,000 miles. I will get it off the trailer tomorrow and into the shop.

It lives with a “new” ecm and a thirty minute security relearn. Now it is just minor stuff, needs a couple tires, front wheel bearings on one side. Wipers of course, run all the lights, I have new complete headlight assemblies, rear hatch struts. Then the 100k mile maintenance, timing belt plus kit, water pump, fan belt and tensioner, plugs and boots.
Looks like it got a new fuel pump and filter in an attempt to get it running, plus a new battery which is junk after sitting for at least a year and a half.
Air blows cold and everything seems to work and the miles are honest! Nice car.
I will install my second set of tow bar brackets on this car.

That's fantastic, Andy. A new car for less then the down payment on a BRAND NEW Car.
