Strange request. I am working on purchasing a w123 Mercedes wagon that I was tipped off on from here. It has been sitting for a few years and has no battery. The owners want to sell it but won't sell until they know if it will run or not. They have not found a battery for it but I stopped by today and they said if I brought a battery to see if it starts I can buy it.
So, does anyone have a large battery I could borrow or rent for a day? Or do you know where I could find a cheap used one?
No specific time, whenever I can get one and stop by to try it out.

I have to go down to Pickerington both days for ODP.
I don't have any immediate use for it this week...(out of my Land Cruiser). Yours for the week if you need it.
If you would have posted this 20 minutes earlier, I'd bring a Mercedes battery with me to the rallycross tomorrow. We just replaced one in a later model E-class because it was marginal and we still have the core kicking around.

I was going to post it earlier but I was distracted by food.

I have a marine battery on the charger and I'm just around the corner from said vehicle. Will that work? Welcome to it any time.
That may be easier, I'll let you know.
I have a decent used H8 at the shop, let me know if you need it sir.
Looks like I have one covered for the preliminary inspection but if I do buy it I may contact you I'd you want to sell the used one.
