2003 Mercedes SL 500
New "Old Guy"
Hi, Tom from Bellingham, WA.


Buying a 2003 500 SL, white in California this week and driving back up the coast to home. It's the last thing on my Bucket List.


I've been riding motorcycles up and down North and South America, Africa, and Europe for the last 10 years and now graduating to "an old man's motorcycle".


I'll be interested in fixing whatever might be wrong with the "new" car and then maybe pimping it out a little - tastefully, of course. I'll need all the help I can get....
