    Restoration of a 300 Adenauer

    I know it is not part of 107 or 116 folklore, but I felt it justified to feature the restoration of this car in this section of the forum. I felt that it was prudent and of possible benefit to members present and the future to have access to some of the very comprehensive measures that were...

    Washing your car

    It's quite simple, isn't it ? Buy some expensive gold plated Mothers or whatever, water, big sponge and away you go. Nothing wrong with any of that, including hosing off all those lovely suds and then putting the synthetic chamois (povos like me) to good use. It's the hosing bit I want to talk...

    6.9 Compression Test

    Most of us know the procedure involved in carrying out an engine compression test. Right ? Engine hot, accelerator pedal fully depressed, and turning over engine for about six or seven revolutions. Normally, to carry out the test, it needs two people, namely one to activate the turning of...

    Restored 6.9 - For Sale in Orange

    Owned by, I think, Kalpesh who is one of our members. The car looks nice enough - as good as can be expected of pics. not quite up to Photobucket standards. The owner had referred to this restoration in an email to me back in December, but he has not been in touch since, nor has he been on the...

    Central Locking - Fix it !

    Well, it's far easier said than done. I have experienced problems with Gleaming Beauty for a number of years, as well as Wilhelm, the Astral Silver 6.9 that I used to own, but is now in the hands of ChrisP., domiciled in WA. With Gleaming Beauty, I had one somewhat unsuccessful visit to one...

    6.9 Hearse

    Quite an unusual, yet at the same time, attractive, 6.9 on German ebay. Good range of pictures illustrating what I think is a good looking car - it has a few issues, such as non-functioning Air, electric window operation somewhat haphazard, it is suggested that the clear over base could do with...

    Museum in Stainz - Austria

    I visited this museum back in 2005. I am linking this thread to those posts - for no particular reason other than to make it readily 'findable' at any time for present and new members. http://www.topklasse.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1012 Furthermore, I am sad to relate that the museum has...

    Switch panel

    The pictures are from two 6.9s, with similar layouts, but identical problems - and that is the switch panel with the four top switches, the sliding levers and the two rotary dials. Right, what sort of problems can crop up ? Firstly, the rotary dial for the fan operation can at times be very...

    Leaking Rear Struts

    There are usually four problems associated with the operation and effectiveness of the rear struts - well, there are probably more, but it depends on how far one wants to get involved with the replacement of any leaking strut. Ideally speaking, of course, if you have a unit that leaks and you...

    116 Flooring

    It is a subject that's been discussed many times previously. Water Ingress, and a time span of thirty years (at least) can really cause havoc to the sound proofing/sponge flooring on the front floors. Gleaming Beauty was no exception to this state of affairs, but I had already scraped up all the...
