The Benz is pretty depressed

Well, as of October 1st I haven't been driving my car. Due to some legal problems, I currently have no lisence, and won't for a year. So needless to say, the car is just sitting in my back yard..falling apart.

However, there is a bright side to this. I have a year to work on the whip and fix those little things, then maybe move up to other things. I'm gonna have some decent money rollin in, so i'm thinkin about matching the cladding color to the upper, gettin some nice wheels (not sure what kind yet), and upgrade the sound system.


And another bright side, I'm buying this as a project

Depends on the day
if you aren't driving it, atleast put it up on stands or something. those tires will be screwed by the time you're ready to drive again.

and drain the oil and trans fluid and put new in......never let a car sit with used oil and tranny fluid....the contaminants in the oil will eat away at the metal. Even if it's just a year of sitting.

if you buy that truck you have to do something about the interior, swap out those seats for some black racing seats, so that the interior can match the all black theme, but it would be a pretty sick truck
