I haven't been on DD often lately. I sold my beloved '81 300SD in November 2007. I've kept it in my sig as a sort of memorial. Today, that changes.

I acquired a straight, rust free, Phoenix car since new, 1985 300TD. Nautical blue over blue Tex. Guy literally drove into the shop I work at today with a FS sign in the back window. I decided to buy it. Got permission from the wife first, of course...

She *loves* the new acquisition. Considering-selling-her-paid-for-Scion-to-drive it, that's the sentiment. Which is fine with me. I can't really justify having the S4, the TD, and the BMW R60 bike all to myself on our budget.

The Benz needs a lot of this-n-that fixed but nothing I've not encountered before.

It's GRRREAT to be back!
