Wow! I guess I am in good company. I owned my own business in Michigan for 14 years and then sold it.(Small, Fireplace Shop) Then moved to Florida in 2006 at the age of 42. Needed to because the weather up north was killing me(359 lbs.) More active now that I am in a warmer climate(Down to 243 lbs.) and working full time at "The Home Depot" for migrant wages, but took up the hobby of buying old MB's and fixing them up. My first one was one that I bought on Ebay for $1300 and I still have it and drive it everyday. You can see pictures of it at:[URL="http://photobucket.com/bradsscooters"]and my other two project cars are a 1984 300D and a 1986 420 SEL. These two will be finished by the begining of next year and then on the selling block. I just love working on these cars and the simplicity of them is just amazing! photobucket.com/bradsscooters.com
