I finally got all the interior lights on the 82 300CD replaced. New glow plug
in #1, engine starting great. ACC working perfectly. New wipers. Radio
playing again. Everything cleaned up.
And then it gets totalled. Sandwiched between a van and a pickup. Only a
small knot on the back of my head. The mom and kid in the van that plowed
into me are ok.
I'll try to salvage the car. I think the front frame can be straightened.
I'll look into starting the project only after everything is settled.
But it took the hit. I guess that's ultimately what they were built for and
why we drive them.

I'm glad to hear that you're ok. The MB did its job, and you walked away.
You can always buy another one, but you only have one "you."
If you want another CD, there was a girl (no affiliation) selling a
near-perfect 84 CD near here.
