'87 560 SL
Hi from Arizona!

Mercedes-Benz has been a part of the family vehicle fleet for years. I'm more or less permanently borrowing my dad's '87 560 SL. This gives him more room for his '91 560 SEC and the '99 500 SL. Haha! Anyway, I'm happy to take care of this beautiful car. My other cars are a 2016 Dodge Journey and a '93 Nissan 300zx. Looking forward to become part of the community.

Thank you all. Just did a little washing and waxing, got some insurance, passed emissions, and acquired new tags. It's just such an enjoyable ride to drive! I consider myself lucky to care for and preserve this car.
