I had a 73 1113 for a year.

It was a flat bed wrecker at 24,000lbs. The only reason I had to sell it was that I was moving to an apartment and there was no room for it.

I have always been a Mercedes fan from a very early age, but have never owned one. I fell in love (and still am in love) with this one:

The pre-war 500/540 models are some of the most beautiful (and expensive) cars ever made. Always a favorite of mine.

I'm going to look at a 300cd this weekend- as a replacement for my current DD. Same year,color,interior, about 50k less miles and the engine has been replaced. Supposedly the AC works unlike mine and the guy has all paperwork and receipts, and the floor is not rotting out (like the one I have). We'll see....

I drove a 1980 240D with a manual trans for quite awhile until I crashed it...had a young family at the time so we switched to a 1980 300D Wagon. I ended up selling the wagon to a guy that kept stopping and asking if I wanted to sell it...should have kept it, but a friend gave us an '89 Volvo 240 Wagon that we put about 200K on.

My great uncle Bob Wombles had two independent MBZ repair shops in Newport Beach, CA. He was well renowned in that affluent community and built a very successful business. His shops were spotless and expensive art adorned the walls in the service bays. He was the consummate gearhead and once told me he had all kinds of tricks to improve the performance of PT Boats in WWII....He was a PT mechanic in the South Pacific. He passed away in the mid-90's. I was fortunate to be left some of his art and photographs. I'm happy to share a bit of it on these pages...Enjoy.

Notch, you're killing me here. Smile

My all time favorite Mercedes is the 300SL Gullwing--only the SSKL comes close. Thanks for sharing. Cool

Some great cars shown here!
My 190e is a 2.6 5 speed which when there are no vacuum leaks is a lot of fun...now running like hell as it has been too cold out to really spend the time outside putzing with it.
