awesome work on the benzes...all this inspiration floating around, maybe i'll actually get one of mine low some day.

[TeckniX]

Yes... A lot of inspiration. I found a 75 diesel, but apparently the transmission is slipping. May have to look at costs of fixing vs finding a better one.
Caramel color but clean...


Thoughts? Haha

anyways, the year has come to a close, sad i know. so this is the last picture in 2012 of the benz

the list being: replacing most the rubber parts in the front end, address some rust issues, and so on.

yeah, the front air dam and the rear quarters were rusty and repairing that was so pleasant that i'm going to redo the front inner fenders. plus the car has some bubbles in the paint at the front of the passenger rocker and around one of the side markers. not sure what i'm going to do about that.
