Hope you guys can read my posts....
Don't panic guys the world is not that big a place.
The way I would up buying all of these parts is that I am a good customer of Mr Karasch's business and I do own a O319 Luxury Coach (10 seat version). I was in Germnay last year and asked him for a price on a long list of parts to resore my O319.
He made me an offer on all the stock, and given that I am in the business of selling Classic Mercedes-benz parts it made sense for me to buy them.
I am not a greedy man and when I get around to selling the parts the prices will be reasonable.
