sort of about a early fifties bently or rr with stick shift and crank windows. also adenauer sedans and cabrios. now and then.

another thought bouncing around is an all mb street rod with a early fifites mb 170 with a 617 turbo motor and stick shift and late model suspension and brakes.

probably crazy that last idea.

..I also have a 427 Cobra replica with an aluminum chassis.

An E30 BMW 3-series is a fairly easy car to work on, and the parts are reletively cheap. The 325i/iS cars are very fun to drive also.

180, 190, 200, 220 gasser and diesels are pretty simple, for an MB. Complex as far as other cars are concerned.

IMHO.
