Even though these cars are 25+yrs old, they are built like nothing on the road today. And should be kept going as long as they can possibly go. But then again, I have a thing for specialty cars, and get really attached to my cars regardless if they are $$$ or not.
Have you approached the site sponsors or some of the geezers here who sell parts as a side line? I think Benz World are Canadian...

...honestly it is just the shipping that's stopping me!
