Well yeah ;
I'd thought that part was _obvious_ some time ago .
The thing is : I like these older InLine 6 Banger trucks , as I was looking at a different one to purchase , I was offered a 1992 Chevy 1500 V-6 (ick) with all the basic trimmings , AC , PS & auto tranny , in VGC all for $1,500 , I didn't give it much thought .
I *did* see some older Mercedes' here & there on my trip , in Iforgetwhatstate I saw a clean white fintail parked outside a Mexican junkyard , hopefully it'll be saved .
