I like it. It should join my collection. Has the look of a solid survivor
car. In 10 years, it would likely bring a much higher price.

Started out in 72 as a 350, but the 3.5L was really difficult to get to pass
the 1973 emissions standards without losing too much HP, so MB put the 4.5L in
it.
Got catalytic converters in 74 for Cali and 75 for the rest of the US, and the
low power cams.

Not at all. I picked up a squash racquet 6 months after surgery and PT,

I had both left and right shoulder rotator cuffs surgically repaired 11
years apart. The technology is much improved now. They tether the internal
stitches to a small bioplastic post that dissolves in six to nine months.

Ouch. Sucks getting old, doesn’t it? Could be worse, like a knee or hip
replacement.
Just had my 10 year colonoscopy and they found a “pre-cancerous” polyp. So now
I’m on for every three years, Fun, but better than pushing up daisies.
