RE: My newest love...

This is the newest drain of my time. I replaced every light bulb in this car (except glove compartment). Changed oil, filter, bought all new trim for 20 bucks off a parts car (a hick who had no idea of the value of his 240D was letting it rot in soggy grass, I rescued, and am still rescuing what I can). Hubcaps were polished and actually re-circled (made into a circle again) with the help of an acytelene-torch. Paint is the next step. I'm going to use a combo of restorer polishes and wax but overall, its amazingly solid paint. Everything else is great, new pads and shoes were installed just before my purchase. Anyway, here she is.
