No I bought them from a guy the other side of Augusta. I was going to drive up 
and get them but he came down this way yesterday to get crabs on Edisto so I 
met him on the way, only about a 30min drive there for me. Worked out well. He 
was a really nice guy

Have to buy some new tires to fit them, as my current crappy stock 12 hole wheels 
are 16.  Plenty of rubber on them, so there's no rush.


Unless you really hate those A/S Contis, it was a better deal before the tires 
were removed, but $250 for a nice looking set of 17s isn't bad. I paid $50 
shipped for a far from perfect 16 for the e320.

I would rather buy my own tires. I didn't see these until after the tires were 
sold, otherwise I would have gone for the whole package, as it was a good deal.

I had a CL deal on the hook with a guy over in Deltona for a set of 8 hole OE 
wheels with some decent tires for the same price, but I would rather have the 
17 wheels, so I let it drop.

Congratulations! And thanks to Rusty!


 Last I checked this was gonna pretty well take care of all the bad oil
 leaks on my 240D, I'd love to have it not marking its place so bad...

I know the feeling, only our '82 240D/3.0 is leaking diesel.

She is as basic and simple as they come.  Blower motor works and all 
the basic things that we need are functional.  No power anything or 
vacuum actuated stuff.  Even the pods for the vent are manual and vac 
less.

Now you can retrofit central locking into Gump.  Then you'll have

I may be interested in the Snap On vaccuum/fuel pressure gauge.  Is it the

What would you take for it?

Went to the marine shop auction this morning.  Such deals!

I had no use for much of what they had, since I do not have Detroit,
Cummins, or Cat engines.  There were a few little engine things I was
able to score.

Got a nice MightyVac with ALL the attachments, in great condition.  Now
I can do my brakes and stuff.

Also picked up a Snap On Vacuum  Fuel Pump Gauge.  No idea what I want
with that, as it seems to duplicate the mightyvac.   It is in the red
box with all sorts of attachment and manual.  Might end up on eBay.

Also got a set of gauges that measure in Bars.  One is for 20 bar, the
other to 40 bar.  Also a Snap On gauge that goes to 100 psi.  In a red
metal box, like the snap on labeled Compression test.  Lots of
connectors.

To get the MightyVac, I had to bid on a shelf full of stuff.  So I got
a few metal syringe type Vacuum things.  Will have to do research as to
what I have, but figure I may get some cash back by putting it on eBay.
