Hi folks -- early February brings out the craziest in me.So something got in my head a week ago Saturday, looked on Ebay, and impulsively bid on a 1982 M-B 380SL roadster.And, as it turned, out I won.Son-In-Law Tony checked it out yesterday and handed the guy a check, now all I have to do is transport it back to Ohio from Costa Mesa, CA. 99k miles, all in AZ or in CA. We'll shortly discover whether it is the buy of my life or a pig-in-a-poke!
P.S. it also has the matching hardtop.
This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.

Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos of the purchase you just made. With only 99k miles you sure made out pretty good. Have a great rest of your day.
