1968 230 (W110) Rolling Restoration
Hello all,
Long story short I used to have a 1964 190c that I loved but was eaten up with rust and I had to part with it. It wasn't safe to drive it was so bad. That was a few years ago and I occasionally would look for fintails on Craigslist ever since. In early June I found an ad for a 1968 230 for sale. Called the guy, he told me he's owned it for 10 years, had it painted 5 years ago, and it broke down 3 years ago and has been sitting ever since. The issue was a broken T fitting in the fuel line that parked the car. So I borrowed a friends trailer, a winch and my son and I went and picked her up. She's in really good shape, no rust just some surface stuff going on, interior is almost perfect, has power steering, power brakes, and A/C. Here is another thread that has pictures of when I first got it http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/vintage-mercedes/387044-purchased-1968-230-w110.html
