Many thanks Pawel

Will ask my cousin in USA to buy it online to a dealer in Florida.

If any issues I could buy it and ship it from here, I am just afraid this particular item is a nightmare to ship due to its shape...

Dear friends

Just to let you know all  that found the w113 hood torsion bar on ECS tuning for just 29$ instead of the 60$ asked on MB classic center and also much cheaper than on eBay where is listed for 100$.

Enjoy my discovery.
