Always doing something to it If you go into my profile you will see all the modifications I have done. Here are some of them Floor mats, outside chrome handle . Illuminated sills front and back, diamond plated gas,brake and emergency pedals. Illuminated star with cut off switch inside car. Front and rear cameras that record video and audio even when parked. MB tire air valve caps, MB bolts for license plates, custom Trunk matt, Sunglass holder in place of grip bar above driver. MB projectors on door light for ground that shows MB emblem in blue. Modified cigarette tray. Removed bothersome strap on passenger side. Still looking for more to do

Both as I get older I tend to let other people do the work. I have personally restored a 57 chevy 2dr belair and a 69 camero convertible. both cars I replaced all the metal and painted Getting to old now to do it to many achs and pains
