The first pic shows how the car was when I bought it. The car is a one owner with full history but hasn't had the luxury
of a garage or careful parking. I picked it up for a song :)
The car is still undergoing changes and there is still quite a bit to do. Below is some idea of how its going so far.
Apart from the obvious differences in the pictures, mods include changing the interior from mushroom cloth to mid red leather and of course the retractable badge you see in my avatar.
after a surprisingly low quote for a complete strip down, window out total body spray in Slovenia, I took the plunge and decided to rid those nagging trolly dings once and for all.
Decided to go monotone as I never really liked the two tone look, so replaced both bumper inserts for the new colourmatched ones at the same time as the spray job and here we go, not bad for a 12 year old car is she?
Just look at that deep shine :bannana:
...And then there is my remote locking controlled pneumatic hood star that everyone wants. [:)]
It's my first post here (great site!) and this is my 1988 300E. "Dutch" has got 157k miles and is running great. It's my first car and I'm the thrid owner. It's factory stock except for the chrome wheels, an Alpine deck and a 6 disc changer mounted in the trunk and it's controller which is mounted where the front ashtray once was, so now it folds away [:)] Enjoy!
Bring her down a bit with some lowering springs, smoke those windows, get yourself a nice exhaust system going, my personal favorite is REMUS....but they are kinda pricy though, some tailights like the guy below said would def make a big difference...helps to get rid of that euro taxi cab look[:D]if you know what I mean, & maybe in the future think about getting rid of the two piece headlights in exchange for some nice euro one piece lights! Body kit or some paint would also be nice but I know its all money money money!....Well good luck lil bro! Lookin good even though I wouldve stuck with some AMG, or LORINSER WHEELS....I KNOW THEY ARE CHEDDER BUT HELL EVEN SOME FAKES, QUALITY WISE ARE JUST AS GOOD AS ANY OTHER AFTERMARKET WHEELS ARE! JUST MY OPINION THOUGH, YOUR RIDE IS DEF LOOKIN NICE~~ [:)] GOOD LUCK
