[MBZ] OT: Our Very Best Olympians

There was no robbery in Rio de Janeiro as alleged by US Olympic swimmers,

According to Brazilian police, one of the swimmers confirmed what was seen
in surveillance video: that the Olympians -- Ryan Lochte, Jack Conger,
Gunnar Bentz and James Feigen -- were committing acts of vandalism at a gas
station when confronted by security guards.

A security guard pointed a gun at the swimmers, but it was not an excessive
use of force, Veloso said. Lochte was confrontational with security guards
and "very angry because he was intoxicated," Veloso said. The swimmers
offered payment for the damage while at the scene.

One or all of the swimmers could potentially be charged for “false

unlikely to be arrested, Veloso said. He suggested they should apologize to
residents.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Vacation Family Truckster

There have been a few times over the last few years where a nice big wagon 
would be great to have.  With 5 kids (two at home) and 7 grandchildren, a big 
ole 9 passenger Wagon would be great!  Plus, I actually sort of liked the last 
few years of the big station wagons -- whether it was the Mercury Colony Park

[MBZ] #*&@ Car payment

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

For more than 20 years I  have been putting bandaids on the exhaust pipe 
of the 240D from Dallas (81).   It has so many patches fore and aft that 
the section under the passenger compartment keeps twisting down between 
the bandaids.  I have been tying it up with wire, and the wire keeps 
breaking.  The front pipe is now rusted off up to the bend from down to 
back.  So, last week when the wire broke again, I sighed deep, and 
figured maybe it was time to make a car payment.


So I ordered  a new Bosal exhaust pipe and resonator section from crock 
auto.  It came in Tuesday, and I put it on yesterday.   The resonator 
and muffler were ok, but I had to saw off the good pipe between the 
muffler and resonator to put the new pipe and resonator in front of the 
muffler.  The only problem was that the old and new pipes were the same 
size, and I had no wheels to go to flaps to borrow the swedge tool.  But 
I had a 4" piece on the old pipe as one of the patches that went over 
both pipes.   I salvaged it off the old pipe, it was crushed somewhat 
from the clamp, so I  had to beat on it to flatten the sidewall and 
expand it enough it would slide over both pipes.  In this process, I 
found out the MB pipe was maybe half a mm larger than the Bosal pipe.  I 
believe the old pipes from  behind the down pipe are original.  The 
Resonator has the MB star and number embossed.  I think the down pipe 
was replaced before we got it was replaced with a thin aftermarket pipe 
(that caused it to keep rusting away)


Now in my shed I have a good muffler off the other 240D, and the MB 
resonator off this car, if anyone needs either.


Crock auto does sell the complete kit.  On the other 240D, I put on the 
whole system, even though the muffler was ok.


Total car payment was about $160.  So this one was cheaper than the 
prior one when I put on rotors and calipers.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Vacation Family Truckster

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

One of my favorite movies with zero redeeming social value.  I love the ad
text:





*"Complete with vintage luggage for the roof, a dog leash and a Walley
World bumper sticker on the bumper, this car is a very good example of the
Family Truckster. The paint is in average shape, there are multiple dings,
dents and blemishes and this car has been so distastefully done, you will
simply love it and turn heads every where you go! And of course...'you
think you hate it now, but wait until you drive it'"...*
