A news clipping I bought and might end up getting framed:

Unfortunately she's up for sale.... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/281733052671?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

I'm a member of MBCV, so how do I get access?? :confused:

So.... what's the quickest and most effective way to get these things separated from their corresponding knuckles? I've already tried a pickle fork but bent one like a banana. I had success with a propane torch and a grinder, but it was hardly quick or professional....

W123 280TE fuel pump relay 001 545 68 05 $204.82 plus tax.... Are they serious?? :mad::confused::eek:

Can anyone confirm the old part number supersedes to 0020919701 ? It seems the new pump has a much smaller diameter than the old one, which would suggest it won't deliver as much fuel. Stranger still is the fact it appears the same as a 300/420/560 pump and even thought they're all smaller...

Well recently I've been trying to charge a number of old maintenance free (MB specific) batteries that have been sitting is cars (terminals connected) for sometimes years. These things can be up to $300ea so there was a fairly high desire to resurrect at least a few. But no dice... I have two...

What really gets my goat nowadays is the number of people that go to the trouble of posting ads and then don't bother answering their phone, or email messages! Quite often they don't even have a proper voicemail... "Your message will be converted to text", or "Your number will be sent as a...

Finally prices have reached the proper levels.... Hehe! :rolleyes:;):D:eek: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mercedes-6-3-ltr-V8-300SEL-6-3-1968-1973-M100-W109-/221747569704? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mercedes-Engine-6-3-ltr-V8-suits-600-Grosser-or-300SEL-6-3-1960-1973-M100-/221746989370...

Obviously the 6.9 became too much for even the likes of the great KB! Seems like he bought it purely because it was a Euro with rare options like ABS and didn't consider the amount of rust it had.... I'm rather surprised he didn't buy a better one, but not surprised he didn't have the time for...

Some great results (from a local company too)! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dash-Designs/215317978480153?pnref=story It looks like they can do almost anything to the interior of a car, as well as veneer restoration.... Seems they don't have a website yet.

Now I know Geoff will hate this since it's a diesel, but it is interesting to me since I'm faced with similar repairs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha4LEB73MOc Note the cold air intake!

Well I didn't saw my arm off, but the car didn't do so well!
