which I like way better than having 2.
Looks like this is a timely project too, the lock is pretty dirty inside. I
wonder if thats really
You can get the original build data including key code from the Benzes. Given
that, you can buy
an original code ignition key and a valet key from them also. Cost is high
enouygh but not outrageoue.
Takes a little while; you may have to furnish proof of ownership, especially
for a European
Et voila! A washed title.

And, if you need a smaller wafer than any you have, you can probably file a
bigger one to the smaller size, can't you?

I pulled the exhaust off my W116 tonight. Everything unbolted easily
despite the rusty condition of the pipe itself (heavily rusted

I don't deposit the check. I just take it to my bank and ask them to verify

the salvage price for a battery of $3-5. But I have not checked for

Try 3M adhesive remover. It's potent stuff but works a hell of a lot better
than goo gone. I would definitely use a high temp paint.
