Got the windows tinted today, fixed the passenger vent and I have new headlight doors on the way from autohauz. Also installed a nice ipod controller pioneer deck, i can't live without one now that i have it in the other cars. Next on the list is rear seat covers, new tires (doing michelin hydros) and I would like to find a decent first aid kit and box in the same color as my interior.
Next on the list is to |

It appears so, it was garage kept for the first 23 years which definitely shows in the paint and interior.

I sold a car a little over 2 years, kept looking at ones in terrible condition and missing the ones in good condition. I really wanted something in good condition and didn't mind paying a few bucks. also was really only looking local as i didn't want to buy anything sight unseen.

Yea everything is pretty much original, to be honest nothing too exciting. I am fixing all the little stuff, headlight doors, having a couple door dings pulled out. I want to powder coat the wheels and keep her pretty much stock.

I thought i should also mention it's quite possible my quest has not ended, shortly after I got the 300d my wife's car 05 Mustang was hit in the parking lot, it's been in the shop for a week and she's been drivin the benz.... now she doesn't want the stang back LOL so I may be in the market for ANOTHER one soon.
