PPI or local 113 members near Menlo Park, CA 94025
« on: November 15, 2017, 11:01:41 »
Hi all,

I was wondering if there were any members in the vicinity or PPI recommendations for Menlo Park, CA 94025

There is a 280sl up on BaT at the moment that I was interested in and was hoping to have someone look at before bidding.

I know the car has a number of purist issues - seats, engine but more worried about structural issues.

I recently learnt the very hard way and expensive way that a Mercedes dealer is not the place to do a PPI.

Thank you in advance - hope to be able to become a lifelong member (sadly my last ownership stretch was 1 week)
