OT: 300SL Gullwing, Another "once-in-a-life" find... Options

[neo914-6]

I sold this person an old radio from my 914 parts car and found this story while exchanging emails:
"I used to live in Sacramento, over thirty years ago.
While living there, I had a cousin in Alameda, closer to you. One day he called me, because I had bragged that someday I'd own a Mercedes Gullwing. He had found one for sale, in Alameda that was in rough condition, but it ran. It looked like Black Beauty after pulling the milk wagon and no one wanted it, so the price was cheap. Years later after I bought it we found out it was a lightened body by the factory and a one of a kind. I'm still pouring cash into it, trying to get it like new, but it's worth it."

After I asked about sharing this story:
"I'm taking my time restoring the 300 SL as everything costs more than you can imagine, and I'm a stickler for exact details. All of this takes time and money. If you want to tell the story I'd ask you to emphasize the fact the car is not together. There are a lot of crazies out there, and if they think it's in one piece they might come looking for either me, or the car. It's still years away from being complete again. But, she is like an old friend, and I'm going to make sure it's just right. I only wish I could find out why she was made special this way."
