]Hello there fellow Mercedes owners. Just thought i might register here and be a part of this place now that i have got my baby running again (after 5 years with a blown trans). The car is a 1970 250C (the vin is 114.023.12.000175 which is the 175th 250C EVER made!!! I acquired the car from my father (he bought a 1973 450SL) and since have modified the headlights and seats among other things. The car was restored in 1997. My dad painted it the custom blue you see. He really massaged out the body lines. From what i understand i have the M130V motor and 4 spd auto. It just hit 129k today. The car has a crazy first gear (4.03:1!!!) and its really easy to burn the tires through second. I love the craftsmanship of these cars. They are like grandfather clocks (if that is the right analogy). Anyways comments or questions are welcome. It is a pleasure to be among fellow benz owners.
