Re: [MBZ] OT 1949 Desoto car,$1,000

[Peter Frederick via Mercedes]

Never had the joy of driving a flathead -- my first car was a '62 Olds Dynamic 
88 with a badly adjusted transmission (i.e. the famous "no reverse" option).  
The only two things dynamic about it were the rate at which gasoline vanished 
from the tank and it's propensity to run FAR too fast for the pitiful brakes it 
had on the highway.

About 10 mpg in town, if you floored it the tranny shifted into 3rd at 90 
mph.

Second car was a '72 VW Beatle.

Randy - forget about the toe kicks and build roll out drawers for storage

Too late for that for me. If I were building them now, I might do that 
but these were built years ago and the base cabinets sit on rectangular 
frames made out of 2X4s. The oak that I said needed to be applied will 
just complete the look and cover the pine that is currently visible. I 
think, that if I were to put drawers in the toe kick space, I would make 
the toe kick taller than normal in order to get a drawer that had some 
functional use - probably only an inch or so higher, but more than might 
be normal. We have also installed a cork floor since the cabinets were 
built so we have further reduced the height that would be available if I 
was convinced I should try to open the fronts of the toe kick to install 
drawers.

Re: [MBZ] 1972 Mercedes Benz 450SL - $2500 (Hilton Head island \ indigo run)

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Yeah sent him an email asking more about the car, if it drove OK, what 
it would need to be roadworthy.  That transmission thing was curious, I 
wonder if it is dripping fluid and he doesn't know exactly what it is, 
same fluid for both. I wonder why it was parked for 2.5yr


Probably could source a hardtop somewhere fairly easily.

Leaky valve cover gasket r/r is no big deal but if the transmission is 
slipping that could effectively double the cost of the car

Re: [MBZ] 1972 Mercedes Benz 450SL - $2500 (Hilton Head island \ indigo run)

[Jim Cathey via Mercedes]

All you need is a hard top!  For me, the R107 soft top is the
"I guessed wrong about the weather" top.

I have a dark blue one hanging in the garage.
I bought it for the rear defroster glass.
