If you are getting bounces send me a private message and I will 
add you to the white list asap.  I would think they would have all 
subcribers on the white list by default but no such luck.

How about moving the messages before, say, July 2013 to a different (new)
mailbox and reducing the population in the Sent mailbox?

I still long for my 115 (R.I.P.).  If I ever see one that's rebuilt 
or rebuildable, I'll probably buy it. It is my all time favorite 
Mercedes for driving around a small town or small city.

Gerry


I excluded the 115 dissel  ( /8 )from my list because I never drove 
one much.  My only experience was driving a 76 300D 115 about 500 
miles on its final journey.  It was sad, but the old car ran great 
with the rusty back fenders flapping in the wind and parts and pieces 
falling off in a jetsam trail after each bump.


The /8 visiblity is as good as heckflosse, and in general although 
some improvements were made, the /8 is not much different in the good 
qualities than the heckflosse.  The big improvement was the fully 
independent rear suspension.  In return, the trunk was not as 
cavernous as the heckflosse.  After '75, the extra cylinder was 
available, that that was good for interstate highway merging.


If you love a /8, you will love driving a heckflosse, and vice versa.

Re: [MBZ] Kaleb needs a rusty finnie without seats!!!!!

2014-01-04 Thread Hendrik and Fay
If you read the ad, it says that the interior has been removed and needs 
replacing, also there is rust.
My guess is that these pictures are old and taken at a time when the car 
was in better health.


"This 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220 b sedan is *rough condition* and is 
currently *not in running condition*. It has been sitting for a few 
years and will need some work to get going again. The car is complete 
however the interior has been removed prior to starting a full 
restoration that I never had time for. I rebuilt most of the engine 
components 10 years ago and I completely replace the exhaust system with 
all factory parts two years ago. *There is rust* in several places 
including the front fenders, floor boards and trunk wells. The interior 
is in poor condition and *will need complete replacement*. This car 
could be restored and I would hope that it would be but it would also 
make a good parts car."


Given that, I doubt it will be an easy flip and I don't think Kaleb has 
the time to do a resto, specially seeing he is off to lie on a beach 
somewhere.
Also I doubt that it is that possible to buy a car on fleabay and flip 
it for a good number of $$$'s.

Now if the elderly neighbour has an old car sitting in the shed.
