good advice

I understand what you are saying about leaving well enough alone, but, 30 years has produced brittle tubing, corroded wiring... old age has arrived for the '71 250.
When I first got the car and was showing it to my father we somehow broke a vacuum line and next time I drove, I had no brakes. Duct tape solved that leak... and several others. I gotta try and repair that which I can... the easy stuff... and try to hold off the difficult and expensive jobs as long as possible.
Thanks for your input. I've read about some of your woes and wins with your MB.
Good luck, debi
