Re: [MBZ] nice car crack price

Stupid price but OMG what a beautiful color, which is actually rather common for the W115s of that vintage. I owned a 300D in mittelrot, and IIRC Randy's is the same shade of red. The price is insane of course. On Sat, Jun 10, 2017 at 11:01 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com>

Re: [MBZ] Club event car

A buddy of mine has a 66 230SL 4spd hat looks like that, and is original white body, black interior. It is gorgeous. He used to have Corvettes when he was younger and kept breaking them, someone told him this would be better so he traded a Vette and some dinero for it. Said it was the best c

Re: [MBZ] So What Do You Do....

The 2012 ML has a metal key in the fob, I guess it might work the doors, I never looked to see if they had a mechanical lock. You can pull the round plastic button off the push to shart/stop and there is a mechanical switch under that the key can go into if the fob is dead. --FT On 6/11/17

Re: [MBZ] Balance Shaft Problems?

There was a guy in Boston who had an AC Aceca, he would bring it to the Brit car days at the Motor Museum. Nice older guy, was a friend of an acquaintance, he rowed at the old club at the Hatch Shell on the Charles Rivvuh. I would see him at the show and chat him up. The car was very nice, h

Curley, I prefer Mann filters also for my old 617 diesels. However, I have used STP filters and was pleasantly surprised and happy with them. I find them sometimes at AutoZone. Just a suggestion. Best Wishes, Roger Roger Hale Dinnerware Classics, Inc. Monroe, Ga. 770-267-0850 www.dinnerw

Re: [MBZ] Anybody in indiana?

Nothing yet... I asked the auction house for a VIN and photos of the engine. Also if it's running and if they have a title. After some careful research, I determined that the shifter couldn't be original in this car. Which means possible engine swap, which kills it for me. Let's see what they re
