2003 C230 Kompressor
San Diego C230
Hi all,
I'm Mickey. Just got my first Merc for a project car a couple months ago. I'm looking more at "Coach Building" than I am at "Tuning". It's a C230 Kompressor that came with 109K miles, and it's fun to drive. I don't want to go screwing up the ride or anything.
I'm gonna start with the stereo, since it's in decent cosmetic repair. Then I'll work on restoring the body and interior. Eventually, I may even have some trims fabricated to make it a custom.
So that's it, for now. I have a fleet of projects in mind, but this is my first. Always looking for hints and good parts resources. It's always the little things like screws and clips that get ya, so if you know where to get them, give me a shout.
