1. Oil & filter change on both w123's.
2. Diesel Purge for Mary.
3. New Glow Plugs for Mary.
4. Change the muffler donuts if needed.
5. Make some PAP runs for any needed items.
6. Photograph and list all the spare parts in various locations.
7. Wash & wax & buff both cars.
8. Chase down Mary's oil leak, and Martha's trans leak.
9. Fix Martha's drivers seat springs.
10. Fix both radio's & antenna's.
11. Fix Martha's shifter / park issue.
12. New air compressor for Mary.
