I am somewhat undecided as to weather or not to keep it.
It is the best car I have ever driven. Right now I have about $11k in it with the wheels and a few chrome and body seals yet to go. I was hopping that it would fetch around $17k when it was done.

I have seen others selling for around that price but even when they say "mint" I know that the wear parts (mounts,timing chaine,engine hoses,fuel system) will still have to be replaced at about 100k miles.

I have restored this car to suite my desires as if I am going to keep it.

I am lucky that my brother owns a very large mercedies shop with 9 bosh certified mechanics. Parts have not been hard to find and the labor not to bad as well.
