I bought an awesome used 1985 transmission for my 1983 300TD from
LKQ/PGA 3 years ago. They have always been great to deal with, dating

In a fit of idiocy I ordered two outdoor car covers from him, one for my 108

20-year-old cotton indoor cover, and the SLC cover didn't fit because it was
actually a 129SL cover
