My CLK 430

Hey guys. Long time no talk. Couldn't remember the password for my old account etownbala so I had to create this one.

I was in the process of trying to rehab my CLK from it's golden years but alas life got in the way. Marriage / kids / divorce. Needless to say I've moved on to a truck which is 2020 GMC Sierra Denali and I love it. With no time and no more shop due to divorce I have not been able to finish rehabbing it. That being said here are some pics of the glory year. Thinking of selling it (75% of the way through a timing cover replacement at the moment) or parting it out. It's got tons of aftermarket parts.

Rehab thread. Never ended up finishing it -> https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...ab-thread.html

I did not have to do anything on the CLK side. Only the volume buttons work on the steering wheel though. That's all I really cared about though.
