I paid $3,500.00 for the car.

My cars don't leak either, they get repaired; the Porsche was leaking when I bought it; which prompted a complete rebuild. There may be a cost/benefit analysis for some people who can tolerate leaking; I just can't live with it. My obsessive/complusive nature goes bizerk.

I will give the lower ball joints immediate inspection. The car feels fantastic on the road. Perhaps the lower ball joints have been changed? It will be first on my list besides fluid change.

I will be doing my own work. I have experience working on vintage Mercedes gasoline powered models.

Currently, I have two Mercedes undergoing restoration. This car will get cleaned up and a thorough maintenance sweep as mentioned. "Make Pretty" projects will get underway after Goldie Locks and The Emerald Bullet are completed. I have a Volkswagen Golf that has air conditioning and great mileage to use as a daily driver.
