Wife crunches my favorite 240 in Rochester, NY; need good salvaged parts and a hanky. 200 1998


Fellow Brickers,

My worst fears have come true. My wife called last Thursday to say that she crunched the front end of my beloved 89 240 DL sedan. Good news: she was fine. Bad news: insurance company totaled it. They stopped adding up parts at around 3600.

It looks like I will need a passenger side front fender (or a lot of putty) and the whole deal around the passenger side headlight assembly.

I bought her back for $200 and will attempt to bring her back to life. Any references for good salvaged parts near Rochester New York would be appreciated. Some of guys at the salvage yards I have tried to deal with have been jerks.

Oh well, nothing lasts forever, right?
