Welcome to the club! Tell us a little about your C43 😀

RWL1970

Thank you for the welcome! I am the 3rd owner, bought it from my neighbor. He and his brother in law were the first 2 owners. The car spent most of its life in California and is now in Idaho. It has 135,000 miles and absolutely no rust! Just had a new oil cooler installed along with an AC compressor. Everything is working great! It has a clean Carfax and is the original paint. I plan on polishing it soon, just bought a new Rupes cordless polisher that does excellent paint correction. I had to install 3 new headlight bulbs. I’m having intermittent issues with the power seats. I removed the relay in the trunk and cleaned it up. It is still only working part of the time. I may replace the relay at some point. Just ordered a new cabin air filter and new engine air filters. It has a recent coolant flush and oil change. The brake fluid was flushed at 122k. I’m looking into getting the transmission fluid serviced along with the rear differential fluid.
I love driving the AMG, it will be my daily driver. Thinking about doing a resonator and secondary cat delete, haven’t made up my mind yet.

A few more photos, starting to clean it up!

Looks like I need to replace the tie rod assembly, a little loose.



First step in leather cleaning.



Little by little cleaning the engine bay. Just installed 2 new air filters.









Starting to look better, a little road rash.

Couple curb marks.

Little dirt left after the car wash.

Not bad for a 26 year old merc.

Nope..Not bad at all!
