Ongoing "stewardship"….

Took the car to a (what I believe to be) reputable "Mercedes guy" in Plainfield NH…Explained the history and my desires to provide a good home for this car…A couple of small things….New hood cable, New shift linkage bushings, new fuel pre-filter…..

Just washed it this morning (photo below) after a long/cold Winters nap….

Interested in sourcing of having fabricated a 2" receiver (for bike rack)

Prob. take it for some rust repair (jack points, rockers, etc) in the Fall before the rust gets worse…


Any other things I should be considering for mods/practices to keep this thing a long time?

Best,
