    He' couldn't make it move either, so it will need to be drilled/cut out.

    79 280SE

    I wasn't able to get it out, but I was able to use the second steering lock to move the car so I can have somebody else look at the car. The first ignition lock is still in, stuck in the #1 position. The second one is plugged into the car, into the electrical connector so I can start the car...

    AMG Catalog & Aussie Price List

    Those prices on the AMG catalog are insane, and in USD too. The original owners of my AMG wheels must have been very rich.

    79 280SE

    Thanks Pete, I finally managed to get the key to position 1 (and then i left it there and disconnected the battery) so I can press that button and the lock starts to slide. But because the collar is still on, it fouls against the dashboard and I can't push it any further. Looking at the...

    79 280SE

    I managed to get a used steering lock from Styria, however, because I can't get the collar and tumbler out of my existing lock, I can't remove it from the car. The lock sticks through the dash, and while the front of the dash is soft, there is a metal backing that means I can't withdraw the...

    Car of the week

    Upcoming Lloyds auction: My Take: 211) Looks like a restored example of a ponton 180 model. I suspect the year is wrong, but I don't know enough about these to be sure. I also suspect this is not the original colour. 215) This one has been up for sale a few times. It looks like an...

    I didn’t see a single P5 at eastern creek, but later that day I refuelled next to this nice P5B saloon.

    Shannons Eastern Creek 2022, 2023, 2024 & 2025

    Don't recall seeing any, but wasn't specifically looking. The event was so large, I didn't get to all spots before i had to leave. Also, clubs each take turn for their parade lap so sometimes you go past a club and most of the cars are gone for a while until they return.

    WTB: Becker Mexico cassette and Becker 1402

    Next step was to see if I could use the becker line out module and wire it into standard RCA plugs so I can use a modern amp. 2x25w is pretty low for four speakers. Turned out it was a pretty easy job and I now have it working with a set of powered computer speakers (that accept RCA plugs)...
