Mercedes paint charts do list a green that is about that shade.. However, I
don't think for that year...

I notice the listing says "V8 engine"  In a 300SD ??? Really?

I don't think so...

Shall we add that to the list of posting sins?

Air blows cold
Light rust
V8 engine 300 SD..

Kaleb.. it IS green... If I buy it and bring it to you, will you trade the
Gull Wing you scored in Cuba? ;))

I did notice that the interior door frame in the second picture is the same

I messaged them asking about the engine and fuel type.  We’ll see what they say…

It’s not too far from me, maybe 45 minutes.

[MBZ] lead

2015-10-17 Thread Rick Hawkins Java via Mercedes
Folks

I have a lot of lead as in several tons of Linotype metal (4% Tin, 12% Antimony 
and 84% Lead)

It is in the form of standing type forms (strips of type) and is clean and 
ready to melt to make sinkers or bullets. I think the bullet people like the 
hardness of the alloy.

I have mostly been selling it on ebay for $2/lb plus shipping. It can be 
shipped relatively cheaply in USPS flat rate boxes …. 14 or 15 lbs fits in the 
small one that ships for less than $6 …. move in the larger boxes, but it has 
to be packed very securely.

If any of you need some, feel free to contact me directly.
thanks,

xx rick

They have a couple of exotic car experience places over in Orlando that look

I want to go to the Skip Barber school at Sebring and take one of the high

be fun as well as informative.

Sounds like fun, especially the part about watching them pry the fat guy out of

Max, there is a tool with two prongs that stick into the 
crosshatch in the bottom of chrome drain part. You would unscrew 
that, clean the old plumbers putty off the tub, put some new 
putty around the bottom of the new drain and screw it back in 
place of the old one. Clean off the excess putty that should have 
been squeezed out around drain and Done!


Less then 30 min. The tool and parts available at Lowes, HD or 
other local stores with plumbing parts.


The only possible problem is if you have to twist so hard to get 
the old drain off that something breaks. Then it's time to take 
the tub out or go through the wall to redo the drain pipes.
