They don't come up often, it was a fluke, but I've been looking for a trailer hitch and bumpers for a but, it should look better than diving platforms.

I hear ya. I only scoop good stuff if I spend lots of time each and every day on Craigs and Kijiji (Canadian eBay classifieds).

Of course everyone around here either drives a Yaris or a Ram pickup, or so it seems, so old Mercedes stuff is a little thin on the ground....
