Janis Jalopy is the name we gave to Woozle's Mercedes Benz after recovering it from Georgia. The Benz is a 1983 380 SEL 4-door sedan imported from Germany by my dad, who basically gave it to me in 2000. It ended up sitting out in a field in northeast Georgia for about a year, with expensive consequences. More details to follow.

Some relevant links:

  • An account of the ill-fated Benz Rental
  • An accounting of same
  • receipt for the repair work Janis required in order to be drivable again, after recovery through the court system
  • Some pre-wiki photos of Janis, just after returning home to NC

Technical stuff:

  • Janis is a 380 SEL, which is apparently one of the W126 line
  • Janis appears to have a mechanical injector, which may be at the root of the smoking problems...
