If Mercedes 560SEC are so rare, why are so many for sale? by Mr. DOS
I like the looks and have heard lots of good things about the Mercedes 560SEC. But with such a limited production run, if they are truly "keepers," why is the used car market flooded with them? There are at least 5 on eBay right now. Thanks for your comments!

Parked 1 year - how to prep? by Jim Beaver
I've got a 1994 Camaro 6-cyl. which has been parked for more than a year, with no prep done. The battery was removed about five months ago, but other than that, it is exactly as it was parked the last time it was driven, in January 2004. I've got a new battery for it. But what should I do to get...
