Welcome aboard Fender Bender, sounds like your on your way to making that car a decent driver again, just remember, there is no such thing as a cheap Mercedes. you will learn as time goes on if you do not already grasp that. You will always get out of you car what you put into it, until you try and sell it
You definitely picked the right site to join owning that, there are people from all walks of life from all over the world on this site that own your same car.
You will learn a lot here. no question will go unanswered. Every problem that could occur has already happened to someone else on this site.
there are a ton of (keep it orig) guys and a ton of (mod it out) guys,so no matter what you say you will always hear others opinions,
but you just go and do what ever makes you happy. Good luck with your new purchase. thanks for the pix, those are always appreciated!!
