My Mercedes is officially bullet proof

Sorry I didn't take a picture of the door, but I was in Denver last month at a hotel and when I woke up in the morning my car had been shot 7 times.

4 bullets went into my door and never came through the other side. I found them in the door well. They found the shell casings about 25 feet away on the sidewalk. They said the bullets were from a 22 and a 38 caliber. The cops took some pictures of my door with their cell phones. They were impressed that they didn't go all the way through.

Two of the side windows were broken. If I didn't have my parts car, my present car would have bankrupt me by now. Replacing the windows was pretty easy. A buddy repaired the door holes with bondo and primer. The door looks good as new. I just need a paint job now.

I told people it was because I slept with some ganster's Ho.

Eddie

It was a 230S that got shot? I have a 1967 230S (converted to turbo diesel). Good to know in the neighborhood I live in.

I was at a skanky Ramada Inn at the intersection of Speer and I-25.
