A Cosworth Two-Fer!

Here we have not one, but two Mercedes 190E 2.3-16V cars in one deal.  One was rear-ended and is a parts car for the other.  The seller, it seems, didn’t want to take this on.  Will you?

The seller claims the wrecked car was in perfect condition before the accident.  Given the massive oxidation, I wonder when that wreck occurred.  Regardless, the idea here is to take the 90K mile engine from the wrecked car and put it and any other better parts into the higher-mileage car.  It might work…

This is the non-wrecked one.

Not bad…

Here’s the wrecked one.
