So the first order of business is to figure out where to start. I went with brakes and tires.
I got all the 2 piece hubcaps and tires off. Got the rims cleaned up, I'm going to paint them black, right now they are rust and gray.
Got the car up on jack stands, I forgot how much of a struggle it is the jack up the back end of a w110 lol.
Started takin the brakes off. Got the passenger side disassembled. Front caliper was frozen up took it off, and hose. Rear drums disassembled, wheel cylinder was toast. The lines look newer so they are good. It has the incorrect master cylinder resivor in it so I'll swap that. The master cylinder itself looks like complete crap so I'll probably replace it too.
