Re: [MBZ] OMG I have sooooooo been waiting for this!

2016-06-07 Thread Joel Cairo via Mercedes
There was a PGA golf thing down the road a coupla years ago, 3 or 4, and 
MB was a sponsor.  They had a load of Cs and Es and a few Ss all silver 
for running the playas and VIPs around.  They had them all parked at the 
airport before and after, I guess the motor pool for running them back 
and forth.  I saw a parade of them running down the road one day, 30 or 
so in a pack.  They had a big tent set up at the venue, a few cars and 
some displays on stuff. No clothing, though it probably would have been 
a big hit over there among all the swells.


There was free parking at the remote lot for Benzes, I drove the old TD 
over which I thought fit in quite well.

Good grief!

Yeah.  Junk like stuff cobbled together is a rat rod.  The
complete body, including hood and roof, of one car with a
not-so-very-uncommon engine swap does not seem to fit the
definition.

The hood and front fenders from the 240S attached to a F-250
pickup frame and a chevy small block - that could be a rat rod.

I have seen them both ways.
Usually, semi gloss or satin black paint, or no paint.
Some are really odd combinations and some are fairly complete original 
cars just painted black and somewhat junkyard looking.
Others have had a whole lot of careful work done to make them look like 
they are junk when they really are not.


I have some photos of an MB that was offered for sale here that is sort 
of a rat rod. I will try to remember to post them here.

Some are quite inventive. I like looking at them at car shows more than 
the highly polished stuff that is so common.
For example, I don't care to ever see another Camaro with a big block.

Re: [MBZ] OMG!! We almost died!

2015-03-07 Thread clay via Mercedes
I was not witness to the wheel wiggle visual.  A person could tell that 
something was not right and that there was movement of a sort at the wheel 
point from inside the car.   It felt to me that the caliper had come loose, or 
that a bushing was allowing excess movement when changing direction from 
reverse to forward motion, or when braking in reverse.   While the whole circus 
was going on,  I was drooling over the three W113 that were waiting to go up on 
the lift.  Much consternation and looks of horror were had, which got my 
attention, so I went to find out what the excitement was.   Witnesses were 
describing immanent catastrophe, so I took them at their word.

Glad you caught this, but I'm confused.

I don't understand how a missing caliper bolt would make the wheel wiggle.  
There's no relationship between the caliper and the wheel as far as the wheel's 
position.

Please elaborate.

The 300D isn't an S-class - is it?

I'd say - buy it and put the engine in an old pickup truck. :)

I'm not really up to speed on those new-fangled, high-fallutin
cars.

It's needs one of those "Little Red Express" emblems, Dodge stuck on their
trucks in the 70s.

Good example of how not to apply Bondo to a roof.

Re: [MBZ] OMG it's a message that is related to cars!!!!!!!

A couple of tips, the slide calculator can be made bigger, I found that 
inserting the pictures into MS office allows me to adjust the height of 
both parts to 21.8cm, which is 23% bigger and makes it easier to read.
Well actually I made the first part 21.8 high and had to adjust the 
slide part to fit but it can be made bigger or smaller, as long as both 
parts are the same height and the aspect ratio is locked.
Remember as the pictures are on their side the height will end up as the 
width of the finished slide calculator. Do not be tempted to turn the 
pictures because A4 is higher than wider.
I used photo paper to build this and it gives it a nice strong feel to 
it. Have fun and don't cut yourself :-)

That is just so wrong on so many points, perhaps the worst being the "20 
sq. Yards of matching bone nawgahide for the interior"  You could make a 
set of sails for the thing with that much "nawgahide."  Musta been a 
good deal on nawgas down in Jawja.

I think it may involve more of the whacky tabakky than some cider that 
went off.  IIRC, there was a kid while I was growing up who would take 
perfectly good Revel models and paint them in just such garish colours. 
 Last I saw him he was out cold with a bag of modeling glue behind the
