Wait a minute, and I'll get my violin out.

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] And When I'm Gone , Then What ?
To -day I skipped work and tinkered on my two Coupes , getting the red one ready for it's fire sale give away by swapping out misc. parts so the bath I take will only be $5,000.00 or so .
I'm well pleased with the Euro headlights & bumpers in my keeper Coupe , the seller Coupe is running fine and in fact _bolts_ from a dead stop better than does my turbo Coupe , I'll miss it and hopefully the next owner will enjoy & take good care of it .
However , as I was driving to SWMBO's place for a nap , window down , elbow in the hot breeze & the AC cranked up as cold as it'll go , radio playing old Rock & Roll tunes I pondered : who'll give a rat's patoot about an old Mercedes Diesel Coupe after I've assumed room temperature ? . no one I'm betting .
That's kinda sad as I've put a lot of hard work and no small amount of ca$h into this old car , as it is fast approaching the zenith of Automotive perfection for this old geezer .
I think I'll go take a nap .
