A friend in Houston (Dan you bought the S430 from him) has a PRESTINE 79 450SL
I drove a coupla times some years ago, once on a little road trip on the
interstate. I didn’t get a sense it was a “sports” car, more of a GT but kinda
small. Heavy and felt much bigger and was not really too
Didn't end up being too bad. Took maybe an hour to get the intake manifold out,
could do it faster a second time. Once that was out removing the alternator was
easy.
Took a few photos, this one shows the gear-like toothed wheel that drives the
alternator via a rubber coupler (alternator has
Gonna have to pop the door card and have a look. Get some upholstery tools from

The M117s are becoming scarce, and I even think that folks like Blue Ridge are
paying top dollar for nice M117 engines - for their later coupes. At least I
believe these had M117s, right?
I never warmed to the design, it seemed boat-like and clunky, like a stylized
concrete block. They’re big
Dang. That is a sweet one, and it’s even a stick!! I didn’t even realize it
until I was reading the description, I was so taken with the car in general.

Yeah, those big diodes don’t come cheap. We used to buy them by the box. On the
big machines, you really can’t tell when one diode shorts unless you’re an
experienced welder, I was told. When I would get them in with bad (shorted)
diodes, you could usually tell as the bead would spatter and

They really shouldn't be permitted to advertise things like that as
"Mercedes".
I did see a similar one this morning on the net that had a Mercedes
drivetrain - in Australia.
It had an AT and the owner was asking about swapping in a manual
transmission.
