Re: [MBZ] Slow weekend
I got the Ranger to drag ass hauling wood yesterday, a friend is building a house and told me to take all I can haul. Yesterday 7 pieces of wood had the ass end of the truck about on the pavement. Then I put safety chains on the snowmobile trailer and gave it a coat of paint. Mowed the lawn with my 46 year old lawnmower which started on the 3rd pull after its long winter's rest. Having a fuel shutoff proved to be a good idea on that. Also built a new potato box and planted some butterfly mix flowers my wife had. After dinner I split 1/2 cord of wood with my hand operated mechanical wood splitter. My wife brought me out a coat its cold she says, I was pouring sweat... Today theres bread dough in the bread machine and then a birthday party to go to and not much else! -Curt Date: Sat, 7 May 2011 10:56:36 -0500 From: Dieselhead 126die...@gmail.com To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: [MBZ] Slow weekend Message-ID: a0624080dc9eb1b9ba355@[192.168.1.51] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii ; format=flowed Everybody must be working on yards/gardens or cars.

Re: [MBZ] Slow weekend
Annual Master Gardener's Plant sale -- all day Friday setting up and then FINALLY mowing grass (it's more than a foot tall, even where I managed to mow some of it before my vacation), then all day Sat selling tomatoes. In bed by 8:30 Got another stint at the sale today 10 - 1 pm, then off to the funeral home, mow grass, check the bees, and then Mother's day dinner. I'm going to try to get the new driveshaft in the 300D this week, the vibration is killing me!

Re: [MBZ] 91 350SDL trim color
As I recall, the trim colors are not listed. Someone posted them several years ago. I will try searching the archives. Maybe someone saved it or wrote it down. Exterior color of my 91 350 SDL is black, #040. Can somebody tell me how to identify the color code # of the grey trim on the bumpers and side lower trim?

Re: [MBZ] 91 350SDL trim color
From another forum: Bumper Cover Trim Color Does anyone know the color code of the lt. gray bumper trim and molding on white Benz's or have a suggestion for over the counter paint close match? I cannot seem to find a matching paint at the auto parts and hardware stores I go to. I think the later cars were all white. Thanks.

Andrew, I called a local nursery and talked to the owner, who has a radio show here on Sat morn. He agrees with Rich. Small 2-4 inch tender shoot dip in Rooting Powder plant in Sterile Potting Soil. Keep Moist NOT Soaking wet. Should see roots in 3 to 4 weeks. Keep soil above 72° .

You'll likely have a greater success rate if you rubber band a baggie over the the top of the pot also, to retain the humidity.
