Re: [MBZ] A Martha Project

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

I was thinking upon that.

A car looking like crap, pretty much costs the same as making a #3 look near 
perfect.  There is a bit of rust repair, welding/bodywork this example needs, 
but all the rest comes out standard.  Re-chrome the shiny bits, repaint the 
body, re-upholster the interior, chase/rebuild the electrical system, new tires 
on refurbished rims, renovate the brakes, rebuild the engine and transmission.  
That sounds really close to what the former section president went through to 
bring his 190SL back to snuff.

1995 E300D - Gave her life to save me against a Dame in a SUV

Re: [MBZ] Yo Martha

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

 A person would have to dilute it real good for me to think it safe to run on a 
defog coated win’der.  I am not sure how it may not eat things, but dilute it 
may not be able to handle the schmutz 100%.  I am trying to figure what to use 
to remove all the A/C haze on the SL.  The pressure did not hold on the SDL 
when I filled the system.  It let loose at the receiver/drier, spewing fumes 
into the garage and the SL.  Windex does not work.

Re: [MBZ] Too Many Zeros

I like, sort of, just for being 220D.

Gump would have been able to give this thing a run, but no way are my gonads 
that large that I would have put a valuation like that to her.  Maybe I could 
have Hagerty swallow that, but a real buyer would want much better.

Re: [MBZ] Seat Cover SCORE!

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

I don’t know about W113s, but I’ll bet he might be able to come up with some 
W123 covers.  Can’t hurt to ask.

When I got the 400E in January I emailed him about a set of covers.  He wasn’t 
optimistic, saying that he has rarely seen blue leather in a W124.  He promised 
to keep an eye out, however, and I left it at that.

This afternoon he emailed me that he had found a nice set and it was mine if I 
wanted it.  Of course I jumped on it right away.

His eBay handle is “mschoen954” and he regularly sells stuff there.  If you 
contact him tell him I sent you.  I get nothing out of it, just a very 
satisfied customer.  This is the third set of covers I’ve bought from him and 
I’ve always been very pleased with the quality and value.

We are still non-commercial; I don't know if we will be changing that.

Re: [MBZ] Nice 250S on BAT

Yeah, I saw that, too.  I have lust in my heart for it.  Sadly for us it will 
bring big bucks, I’m sure.

If I couldn’t find a nice finnie I would certainly go for a six cylinder W108.  
They’re great cars.

What are you hauling with your remaining truck? Lot's of trucking activity in 
and out of Florida; especially during the winter vegetable and fruit seasons.

Re: [MBZ] e420 ignition lock Frozen

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

What really does these in quickly is having a key chain with a bunch of crap 
hanging on it or a lot of keys.  The weight of the items on the keychain buts 
stress on the lock and can cause it to fail.

My youngest goes around with a lanyard for a keychain with all sorts of other 
junk on it.  If he wasn’t driving a W210 with a SmartKey I would be all over 
him about it.
