So I put the wheels on the 250C, and moved her outside.

A few days (and adult beverages) later, I put the 250C back in the shop. Fired up fine, idled into the shop, then when I went to stop, the pedal goes to the floor, and I coast right into the beer fridge.

There is still a horizontal crease in the door, right about W114 bumper height to remind me.

I envisioned this event in my head and was then unable to stop laughing.
