I've been restoring old MB's for about 10 years now, my first project was my 82 W123 which was given to me by a family friend, still have the car but I don't use it much.
For me, I'll just restore this. The term classic is relative. Ang Classic sa Filipino eh yun car dito. Makes sense coz cars like these are the ones that touched our lives
Here's what am gonna do with my aging CRV sa garage, get 17' rims and repaint silver. Simpleng - simple. Pang Sunday drive, old orig stereo, maybe get time sharing or a SM condo unit in Tagsytay with parking and just park it there. Tapos from Manila to Tagaytay, I use my daily car then switch with this and drive anywhere around south na maluwag and nature commune.
I already driven my CRV sa Marcos Highway to Tanay to Enfanta side of Sierra madre Such a relaxing drive, windows down Aircon on, kung ano na Lang masagap ng stereo
Gagawin ko ganito itsura someday, it could pass as brand new with this color and Rims
