1995 MB E320 convertible coupe 6,800 miles
New member, acquired a mint 6,800 mile '95 MB E320 convertible!
I will be restoring to running condition a mint condition '95 MB e320 champagne colored, maroon topped convertible that has been sitting for 12 years and has less than 7,00o miles on it! In amazing condition. Usually, a car this old that has been sitting will have destroyed soft rubber parts. All the hoses, the top, even the wiper blades all look and feel brand new with no cracks or visible aging. This car was in a garage its entire life, and the house was a summer home, So Cal mansion. Find of a lifetime.
Will be changing all fluids with a focus on the fuel system. Paint and interior are showroom new, except for small hole in headliner, dead center of top. Was there a light in the convertible top from the factory in these cars?
Thanks for the welcome, and future advice given, in advance. Cheers, mates.

Pics of the E320
The first pic is as I found her. Then, after the flatbed tow home. The two at home show car just rinsed off and compressed air dried, not even soap washed and waxed. Want to wait until I have time to properly two bucket and hand sealer wax the car before I mess with cosmetics. The paint is great, and even shows where the original owner had waxed it, but then missed wiping wax off in some spots, due to age? Who knows. Such an amazing car, though.
