Now that the 300SE is a solid daily driver and the 300CE is "impounded" by my girlfriend after her Volvo got smashed in an accident, I'm looking for a new project car to pour my money in. I've found a 1981 Mercedes 380SLC for not to much money. Always liked the look of those coupes and I'm intrigued that it's the final year of the C107. Never knew there was even a 380SLC, always thought the last was the 450SLC, before it was replaced by the 380/500SEC.

Anyone around here who owns one of these and what is there to look out for and did they come with the single row chain, like in the 380SL?
