Here's the project at hand too.. I dig driving the beast. I love how heavy the steering boxes are in the w124s. It really needs a lot of suspension work, but still has that mercedes feel to it. I've never driven a w124 with a good suspension, so I hope after some shocks, springs ball joints and tie-rods it rides better

Wish I could offer you some of my space, but right now I've got it packed with pretty much every piece of my 300D spread all over, and have to make a space for my Jeep as it is since it's P/S hoses blew out and I have no car left to drive. After that I probably need to fit a parts car in. My dad rents a lot of my space from me and I'm terrible at organizing so it's a mess with my 300D restoration going on. I'd like to say I'll have my own project done soon and will have space, but honestly, the end isn't really in sight and I'm guessing it will be April by the time I'm done. Hope someone can help you out, normally I'd be a great candidate but just bad timing right now.

Hey Jake, been in this jamb a couple times, hope you find a resolution.
From experience, if you borrow a space, write down expectations, like how long it will be non-running. Because I didn't meet this expectation (wasn't clear), lost a friend. Also, if they have children, expect damage. His boy smashed out the taillight and they are N.L.A..

Because I broke the rule, meaning, took advantage of his kindness. Now that many years have passed, he is friendly. Actually, loose a lot of friends over what seems small things. But, the price I pay for having the gift of Autism. Honestly, rather have true friends that accept me how I am, my progress, and challenges/difficulties. These few friends are all I need. Just hate to see a friendship end again because someone did a favor and took up a favor. What have come to realize is people need their ego stroked and feel appreciated. Such a foreign and weird concept, but working on it.
