That's where I bought my car 22 years ago to the day. Not hard to remember your birthday, I suppose.  :)

I've had cars come to me for repairs as far as Alexandria VA; not sure how far that is from you.

For the last 10 years, I have used Leslie Blankenship at European Accents on W. Vandalia. He has been honest and knows the older Benzes well. Highly recommend him.
