Re: [MBZ] Morons, morons everywhere
I think you're probably right but I'd go over the thing with a fine toothed comb. Looking at the top of the rear wheel arches if it's not already rusted through the metal is probably super thin. -Curt On Friday, February 4, 2022, 04:00:08 PM EST, Randy Bennell via Mercedes wrote: I trust he means it does not have holes in it as this appears to be surface rust.

Re: [MBZ] Morons, morons everywhere
LOL, I suppose that is a "no rust" MA truck. It amazes me what people are trying to get for old trucks, any old thing made in the last 40 years is $4000 or more even if it's all rusted out and not road worthy. OTOH: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/429609375375672/ For those not on Facebook that's a 1953 Dodge dump truck for $1000. I'm HUGELY tempted by it for the vast northern estate but I keep telling myself I don't need that much project... -Curt On Friday, February 4, 2022, 03:25:48 PM EST, Dwight Giles wrote: not too far from you. no rust in Northern MA On Fri, Feb 4, 2022, 3:20 PM Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote: > https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/140622528282046/ > > "Rust free" truck is literally covered in rust... > > -Curt > > ___ > 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 > > ___ 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] Morons on w123 fakebook list
The stealerships are taking a blind eye toward who exactly is producing the junk they sell. URO makes a number of parts which bear the magical seal of Mercedes Benz that pass through the dealer parts department. Not under the cheep chinee marque, but passing as "Real Boys”. Garbage, just like the new cars which are cobbled together out of Cheep Chinesium.
