Re: [MBZ] WOW, I dont think I have seen a 115 this rusty

2006-12-21 Thread OK Don

My 220D had holes rusted through the tops of the front fenders - water
poured up through them when we drove through puddles - the kids loved
it back then! It didn't have much rust on the bottoms of the doors -
but I did abandon it due to the rusted frame. It did it's first 100k
miles as a daily driver in MN.

Klebie,

For that subject line, I am going to send you pictures of the 76 I am 
scrapping.  The one you refer to is pristing in comparison.   When i drove 
it home, the LR fender was flapping in the breeze and every time I went 
over a bump, pieces fell off.  I drove it 750 miles that way.  I was never 
sure the care was not going to fold up like an accordion, but the drive 
train ran great!

Yeah, all the junkyards in Awa used to be filled with rusty ol cars in the 
70s and 80s  All the 115s around here rusted away along ago.  the 65 190Dc 
I drove as a winter car in the 80s was worse than that.  I still have that 
car as a parts car, although other than the trans and diff, I am not sure 
what is still good on it.  Glass and window regulators, I guess.
