Unhappy Bad accident need parts

Hello Again Fellow Gwagen Lovers,

I have a medical condition called narcolepsy and last week when driving my Gwagen I fell asleep behind the wheel during the day and drove up on a sidewalk and hit a tree. Fortunately no pedestrians were injured and I was shaken up a bit but doing fine also tree is still standing tall. My Gwagen took the brunt of the damage and she is in need of some replacement parts. I hope somebody can help with these parts 2 get me on the road again..

My gwagen is a 280ge 1986..

1- Radiator
1-ac condenser
1- passenger side fender
1-- front bumper with side covers or G500 bumpers
1-- fan with clutch
1--front grill or G500 grill

I really do appreciate any-ones help

You have a medical condition that causes you to fall asleep whilst driving a 5,500lb truck? And you'd like help in getting back on the road?

An excellent hoax. I'm not buying it. Nobody is that retarded.

Yes I do and I have medication that I take for it since my teens. I am not asking for anyone to give me their Gwagen. I am only asking for information and assistance for parts so I can Purchase them. I am not NEW to Gwagen way of life, many people know me like Warren T. and Vlad from FOURbyFOUR and Mike Needag and Sean/Steven from Euro, and Mike Serpe. My 1st Gwagen I traded her in for my 2nd Gwagen and I changed the engine and put in a Ford Mustang V8 5.0 and the Gwagen drove very smooth and fast but I sold my 2nd Gwagen in 2006. I just bought my 3rd Gwagen this year March from Captain James Van Thach. I am not going to let me medical condition get in the way of my life, but also I have to take Considerations for others people and I have made my Doctor aware of my Accident and he made recommendations to my medicine as well as the Order me proper hours I should be driving. I take my condition Seriously and I am resposible for my actions. thanks for your concern. Doctor orders are serious to me..

Ira

Arrow Alternative to Mercedes Benz Geländewagen OEM parts

Ira,

I am sorry to hear about your accident and good to hear that you are fine and no one was seriously injured.

Just an option if you are not able to find Mercedes Benz Geländewagen OEM parts, you may want to contact Indra for the 463 bodykit:

Indra
Managing Director
Email indra168id @ yahoo.com
Yahoo messenger:indra_168id
Official website: indra's Site
Direct +62 818846107
Fax +62 21 5468661

Also at the link below are some photos of a person that used Indra's bodykit on their older Gwagen to update it to the 463 bodystyle.

Respectfully,

James Van Thach

Ira,

Sorry to hear about the accident with your G class and it's good you're alright. I have found Steve at Eurotrucks to be very helpful on getting pre-2002 parts. I hope that help from your doctor on your meds and adjusted hours gets you out driving safely again.
