Re: [MBZ] Trent parts ban
Hmmnh, sure cash flow can be a problem but it is my understanding that Rusty got you started, so would have had an understanding of the way the system works? Also I think it would have been better if you had kept your customers informed as to the situation, not go silent for a couple of months with outstanding debts/undelivered parts, particulalry you left Rusty in the dark and that's what hurt a lot of people here. Rusty came on this list and basically apologised on your behalf, why should he have done that? Anyway I think you're first step is to talk to Rusty and then go from there, if you want to have any chance of getting trust here, you need to satisfy Rusty that the things that happened where beyond your control, at the very least you owe Rusty a big apology for tarnishing his reputation.

Re: [MBZ] rare mercedes content, not about parts dealers
For a complicated curve piece such as a steering wheel.. shoe goo works best if the offending pieces are held in intimate contact with each other during the cure.. No clamping action directly equates to failed fix. My experience with steering wheels is to apply shoe goo [or other adhesive of choice] then wrap the wheel tightly with kitchen plastic wrap during the cure phase. This ensures all the odd bits are pressed into place and held rather tightly during the cure thus giving satisfaction. Grant...

Re: [MBZ] take 3
it woudl help but i have other issues, mostly relating to blood sugar, that make me a fat retaining machine of the first degree. i was riding in atlanta in the winter, but i don't think i could do it now as the heat would just sap all my strength. but hills are where it's at if you want to bike for fitness. transportation riding in florida isn't gonna do that job :( On Mon, Aug 26, 2013 at 12:07 AM, Benz Hogs benz-n-h...@gulseth.net wrote: Hit that hill 3 times a week and cry with it, you'd see the weight drop like a rock off a cliff :) Luther KB5QHUForest Park, IL '98 ML320 Max (170,xxx mi) On 8/25/2013 11:05 PM, Gary Hurst wrote: i could commute up to about 15 miles each way but that is deceptive as it's really flat here. when i was in GA this winter with the up a hill down a hill i was good for less than 5 miles each way and i'd cry at the end of it __**_ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/**archive/http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/**mailman/listinfo/mercedes_**okiebenz.comhttp://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com -- *reliable vendor of superior parts for mercedes and other european cars * *www.BuyEUROparts.com* ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] take 3
ah, luther, you wouldn't be impressed by me. i'm a typical fat man. i'm lazy and like to eat and good at both those things the only real progress i've made since i was last around you fellas is that i am much small clothes wise. i was an 8x or 9x back in the glory days but a 5x today. i look to lose a size a year, which just isn't going to make it in sgt benzhog's beloved corps, but it's better than gaining a size a year for sure!
