Box of nostalgia for my 87 300D

[BodhiBenz1987]

Just thought I'd share my excitement over something most people wouldn't "get." ... My dad has been cleaning out his office, and called me tonight to say he'd found a box with some documents for my 1987 300D, which was originally his. Turns out it was full of goodies, including the original window sticker! Also had the data tag, invoice for purchase, delivery form from one dealer to the one my dad bought it at, salesman's card and a bunch of other neat stuff you can see in the pic. Also the receipt from it's break-in oil change. I already had a few original items, like the temporary tag, brochures and a maintenance booklet. I'm thrilled this stuff turned up ... my car's history is a large part of it's sentimental value to me. After waging battle with the parking brakes in my freezing garage all week, it's nice to have this reminder of why I do it!
