Thanks for asking. I made the maiden voyage home from the shop today, and it performed great! I had never driven the car before today. When I bought it about a month ago, I had it towed right to the shop.
They put in a new gas tank and sening unit, my original repaired radiator, motor mounts, carb kit, and new brakes. Turned the drums, new shoes, new wheel cylinders, new brake hoses.
The car runs great, sounds great with a nice low rumble, stops great AND straight. No issues thank God.
All the lights, signals, and horn work fine. The wipers do not work, so thats on the to-do list.
Also, need to replace the front floor pan. I don't plan on putting a lot of money into this car. Just want to enjoy driving it. I love the worn patina look on the car.
The mechanic said he had so many people looking at the Merc when it was in the shop. Good to hear.
Thanks again Gang!
