I've never given the costs a second thought. I do pretty much all of my own maintenance work.

As to what the MB will cost me in repairs??? This figure is going to be a big one as I'm going to get everything back to spec - and pretty much everything is broken - the fun of a project car. I've finally been able to buy the first part that I need to get started on the beast - a new primer pump.

The bright side, I got it for $310.

Total cost (and I'm not even started yet.....)

$336.68.


I FULLY expect to be on Fast Lane's Christmas card list by the time I really get digging into this car.
