Default Just a Classic

I have acquired a 1959 Mercedes 220S. Its a long ways from a muscle car but its cool. I'm not doing much with it but I'm trying to help a friend sell it.Its nice to just cruz in and it drives nice. Has a 6cyl gas motor with duel carbs rated at : it says 120 gross HP at 5200rpm. This thing has a 4 spd trans with an weird auto clutch. You shift the gears but there is no clutch pedal. As soon as you touch the gear shift the clutch engages and you shift. It needs mostly little things fixed.
Its a cool car and I'll get to drive it till it sells. ( wonder what a 350 would do for it? LOL)

That's a cool car. You should keep it and rent it out for weddings.
