Excellent! I`ve had a 190 (gas), 250s and a 280s.My best find/steal was a 300se coupe with slant 3 litre motor. Sumbitch was serious fast,although the distrutor cap for $220 bucks was hard to handle.

The old sedans with four on the tree are great cruisers. Doors still slam like bank vaults after 40 years.

I was thinking the same thing but I was gpoing to paint the "lip" the same as the car and the center Gold!

Sexcellent!!! I usually see the center amtched and a white lip when it's done so that would be perfect.

By the way OP, that looks like a very nice car you picked up. For me, the 108 really has that classic Benz look. Make sure to keep the front suspension well greased. Make sure you can push grease through every Zerk fitting. If they become plugged with dried grease, it can be a pain in the ass. Also keep an eye out for cracks in the sub-frame where the lower control arms mount.

Sorry for the delayed response. Maybe I can swing by your shop sometime with my 280S.
