Left on a truck this morning, sold it to RENNtech (yes, the Mercedes tuning company) in Florida for as much as I paid for it originally after pulling the seats, the seatbelt presenters, all the power windows, and the power trunk release out of the car. Cost me ~$400-600 in parts to get it enjoyable to drive and a bit more complete in an attempt to sell it whole and running. Overall I'm super pleased!

Well I guess it was fun while it lasted! I am currently very interested in older Mercedes cars. They seem fascinating for some reason.Life is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.

I'm going to have to look into this sell a car thing... you say you get money for it?
Ford's 4.6 looks very much like the '74 450SL I had but the driveshaft donuts made me a little crazy. They definitely had impressive tech.Originally posted by BBR View PostFlying south, with a flock of bird dogs.Comment

I love the color on this one. I would completely restore it if I had the money. This is an amazing car to drive and to own. The engine might be a little problematic if not taken care of properly but the rest of the car is flawless. It's probably the most comfortable V12 I have ever driven. Paradoxically, it was before that the best cars were manufactured, nowadays they are expendable in order for us to buy new ones. I made a tour of https://www.scrapi.com/scrap-my-car-near-me and the old cars had the best parts for long term usage.Last edited by Jorik; October 23, 2020, 01:51 AM.Comment
