the story... so far.

I'm having the car towed to my brother-in-law's house today. There I'll be able to really look at everything and begin a diagnosis/ parts list. The car belonged to a man who got it from his mother (the original owner). He died last year, and it was running about a year and a half ago. The tags expired in August of 2004. It's been sitting for about a year. It has been on a driveway and under a car-cover all this time. I'm good friends with the widow's godson and she wanted me to get it off her driveway. This is my fird MB, and i'm really excited about getting the wrenches out. At this point i do not know if it is a good candidate for a restoration. It's such a classic looking car that I'm afraid i've already got delusions of grandeur. At least I'll look good parked... I'll keep everyone updated with the status and post some pics this week.
