Hi,
as a new member I would like to introduce myself and the 450 SEL.
This is not my first Mercedes, I bought it a year ago from a neighbour who had spend a surprising amount to get most of the mechanical sorted.
I had to fix a few bits on the front suspension and the sticking heater flaps, a work where you wish you had very long fingers and more of them.
Instead of enjoying the car I decided to get it repainted. There was a little bit of rust on the rear trunk sides but that was quickly...
