One year an award was given for the worst jalopy of the group and I must say the winner was most deserving. If I remember correctly that was the day that car used/leaked a gallon of oil on the way to the Q and a gallon on the way home. Had we done that today I like to think I'd have been in the running. On the way to the Q my '78 240D developed a coolant leak. It needed around a gallon of coolant for the round trip. Tomorrow if it quits raining I'll spend some time figuring out where the coolant is going. I think its a leaking radiator, running with the cap loose worked to slow the leak as long as I kept the speed moderate. -Curt From: "Gerry Archer" <arche...@embarqmail.com> To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Preppin for the Q Message-ID: <9787E33A269E4E7EB0F3F874D15CC26E@PC466116028214> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original I'm surprised New Englanders have let California get so far ahead of them in the celebration of rusty vehicles. For example, Pacifica California has yearly Fog Festivals and the top prize is awarded to the "Most Rusted Vehicle". A judge at one of the Fog Festivals had this to say about the winners: "The impressive deterioration of the trunk sealed the second place victory for the '79 Malibu, but the pickup truck was the winner." "It was so nice and rusty and full of holes, you could see right through it". Gerry From: "Dimitri Seretakis" <dsereta...@yahoo.com> You're in luck. I always take step by step photos of all my rust repairs:) _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
