I found a om617 on craigslist in new orleans. The mercedes was flooded in Katrina. Its not seized, motor will turn. Is it worth the 70 mile trip and how much would you guys pay for it?

Thats brackish water. Until you get the head off. You have no idea what has been going on inside the cylinders, turbo etc. Buyer beware.
