Re: [MBZ] 1977 450SEL

I wish you well, but... Beware the oogy cracked dash. :(( I never saw a 116 450SE/L that still had an intact dash, especially if it was blue. Also, inasmuch as most of them seem to have been owned by chain smokers, the interiors usually smell of stale tobacco fumes. Yecchhh. On 9/28/05, Tom Harg

Re: [MBZ] 1977 450SEL

Sorry to rain on your parade, but IMHO the more "modern" 116 450SELs are a step BACKWARDS from the 108/109 sedans and 111 coupes of the earlier generation of classic Mercedes On 9/28/05, Peter Frederick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Should run fine on midgrade unless you tow something (ha ha).

IIRC, Dave M lives in Idaho (Boise?). My only firsthand experience with ID is from three short trips, two of which were to Boise. Boise is very civilized - there are more brew pubs and restaurants per capita than anyplace else in the USA. Way to go, Dave M. On 9/30/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL

Re: [MBZ] steering shock and center drag link

Steering dampener reduces play; replacement of a worn dampener results in noticeably less "active" or "twitchy" steering. Well worth the $50 bucks and VERY easy to replace (I know because I did it twice under minimal supervision). On 9/30/05, Craig McCluskey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Fri,
