Looking at your photos, I realize I forgot to check out pit lane. I also didn't see the rovers, other than the lovely red 3500S that belongs to Styria's son. I guess they were probably on a parade lap when I went past their section.

that's pretty good. The $580 one has probably been sitting on the shelf for years too

Good toknow they can get this stuff. I've also heard good things.

This is a nice car that has been posted on TK before; https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1989-mercedes-benz-w126-420-sel no reserve

Glad you captured the final prices, I was out and missed them

Maybe, but its such a simple job I wouldn't bother. I've done it to most of my cars on my own, and it takes about an hour per car: https://www.classicjalopy.com/2019/05/w126-bonnet-insulation https://www.classicjalopy.com/2019/08/w126-sedan-bonnet-insulation...

Especially the 600!

I’ve done this a few times and it’s not required

One of teh reasons why I bought a W126 parts car was to get another pair of these struts. I finally got rid of the car last week, and the struts are now in my box of spares. If I have an issue with one of my SLS equipped cars, I can send off one of my spare pairs to be rebuilt.

yes it was a good day to spend a free day on an otherwise very busy work trip.

I have been in the USA for work these last two weeks, but had a free day in Northern NJ and stopped by the local MBCA chapter's car show: https://www.classicjalopy.com/2025/06/61st-mbca-northern-nj-june-jamboree/

Yes a LHD 220 is not worth all that much money even restored. These are lovely cars but hard to justify a restoration.
