May your car look as good as Ann Margaret, and perform as well she does in its (her) old age.

No the window is in the house. No garage..yet.
I have a 123 chassis. I've decided since I have no choice to keep putting oil in my leaking beast for as long as necessary. When it finally rusts out from under me I'll part it out.
If I were to name my car it would be "Rusty" and not for the rust it has, but because it's orange and that was/is Ann Margaret's nickname.
I've already turned it into a "farm" car...At different times I've used the car to bring home dogs, baby chickens, horse manure and the other day I needed to move a full size utility pole out of the way of the new garden area so I hooked up a tow strap and used my MB to drag that thing across to the side pasture!
I'm hoping next weekend we can hit a PAP to find the fan I need to replace so I can have a/c again.

So you now have a nice window in the garage ? . that's neat .
When are you leaving to Max's place to buy a 240D ? take ' The Hound '
& drive your new Baby home , you'll enjoy the drive and , being an Engineer's Daughter , you'll appreciate the better design of the W-123's chassis .
