Here is a photo of Mickey Hollingshead at his command post at the repair facility. Our "new" Benz is out of the shop. After being administered to by Mickey and his skilled cadre of assistants at Jim's Fine Car Service, she is rolling on the streets of Albuquerque. Last Friday was her release day and she has been driven every day since then. She took Adam, Sue and me to dinner at Yen Ching on Saturday evening. She took Siku, Sue and me around town on errands and to Christine's 20th birthday party on Monday. Here is a rough list of the improvements to the 240D:
01. New tires all around with the best old one becoming a spare
02. Replacement wheel for the one damaged by the dust devil
03. New front control arms
04. New brake pads and rotors all around
05. Replacement radiator, hoses and fluids
06. New ignition switch so that one key will fit all locks (previous replacement not by VIN)
07. Replacement rear dome light (was missing!)
08. Replacement sunroof switch (previous one was sticking)
09. Passenger side mirror (this 240D did not come with one standard)
10. New Potentiometer to reactivate dash lights
11. Thorough wash job and continued scrubbing of interior
