[diesel_mercedes] Re : Buy this one and you'll be shot or arrested!
_SELLER_ should be shot for :
A. damaging an innocent M-B this way and
B. LYING about it (NOT ' Lambo doors , they're tip up doors rather poorly done , but this is obvious by the way he's dressed .)
Yet another damnfool who ruins a nice car then expects someone else to pay him for his stupid mistakes .

[diesel_mercedes] Re : Cool car on Craigs List
B.S. ! see the rust holes on the trunk lid ? .
Mercedes' always rust from the inside out so by the time you see bubbles in the paint , it's junk .
He knows it's only worth $17K ~ $20K when it has a $40K restoration done so he's bailing & trying to find a sucker .
Do not walk , _RUN_ away from this junker money pit ! .

[diesel_mercedes] Re : On Loaning Tools
_I_ never said anything like that but it's true , I DO NOT LOAN OUT TOOLS because folks never seem to get the concept that they fed & clothed my family for many many years...
When a tool comes back damaged or worse yet , not at all , no one yet , in nearly 60 years , has offered to go replace it or even PAY for the damned thing .
" why are you so upset Nate ? it's just an old tool " - never mind they'd convinced me to part with an unobtanium brandy new tool I looked 20 years to find...
Oops . ranting again .
Good on Trish , better on Chip for having faith to loan tools .
