Thanks! I’ll probably just make a list ‘o’ stuff I need and post it somewhere, as there have been a number of kind folks who have contacted me with offers of parts. As I may have mentioned previously, I am buying this car to put together a dependable daily driver for my oldest son, as he

Would probably be worth it. I tell you a car I regret not buying was one sold by Jaime friend Alvaro. It was a very vice blue on blue 95 e300. The timing was bad but I should have made it work. Sent from my iPhone > On May 26, 2016, at 4:03 PM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes
