Here is our sweet heart 1972 350sl

This website is to let me share photos of my interest.  Currently my interest is focused on my Mercedes Benz cars. 
 
1972 350SL  117,000 miles, We are the second owners.  We purchased this car in November 2001 on EBAY.  We flew to W. Palm Beach and drove her home.  It has sat for the last 2 years with only 2 or 3 start ups.  So after several months trying to get it to run just right we finally took her for a spin in August '03.  We wanted to wait until we could go top off and it was worth the wait.
 
1987 420SEL 138,000 miles,  PO's are unknown.  This car is also an EBAY purchase.  I have been using it as my daily driver since January '03.   I've actually fallen in love with this 87.  Runs soooo good.  I've also been using it as my test vehicle for repairs.  It's had a couple of glitches like the driver window motor going out and the passenger side outside mirror quiting.  Next thing is to learn how to paint.  I've been learning the tricks of the trade for detail and polishing on the red 72.  So now I am ready to paint.  Got my turbine air assembly with an hvlp sprayer so in a couple of days I am going to start with the sanding.

My 87 420SEL Daily Driver and Pickup Truck

1988 420SEL  Here is my 1988 420 SEL she has 143,000 miles on her and once again this was an EBAY purchase.  Flew up to Minneapolis and drove it home.
 
What caught my eye was the interior was immaculate.  The black leather doesn't even have hardly a set crease in them.  I have been working on her from time to time for a year.  Chain replacement, new cam, Euro lights, detailed engine compartment with factory hood pad,  Professionally done wood refinished,  H&R Sport Springs,  18x8.5 wheels and tires.  i hope to finish it by the end of the year.
