I visited Jonathan's shop in Atlanta-Brookhaven last October just before Halloween and spent the morning talking to him, he is a great mechanic and consummate professional dedicated to these older cars.


He showed me the '89 560SEC AMG with just 39k that he had to part out because of a lying ebay seller. From this donor vehicle, he sold me the 2.65 diff and even custom built two custom wood boxes for (UPS destroyed one of them) and now, the diff is in my car, helping it give screaming performance in California.

Here are some pictures of his operation....
















Gleason Torsen Limited Slip diff.





His personal coupe here is one of the loveliest ones I ever saw:
