Don't tempt me. The ball joints would not be that bad but while doing those might as well renew the other rubber bits in there too, which could get a bit spendy.  But if it just the boots they could last a while longer if not bad at this point. --FT On 4/19/18 5:55 PM, Dan Penoff via

[MBZ] This is NICE

2018-04-19 Thread Floyd Thursby via Mercedes
This looks like the one they were asking like $10k for but it is now $4k, much more realistic.  Plus it is an SD.  I love that color combo.  Needs a little work.  This looks like it could be a Poos kind of car.

For a nice SDL, I'd put up with the wannabe rich color (champagne) Though Smoke Silver and burgundy inside are my favorites by for for a 126/124. That said, Yes, champagne is the absolute worst color for a 126, a leftover from the era where the wannabes (gold chain crowd) "gold" plated

I did not go back and look, but I don't think that is the color of my car. Mine is a darker red - more the color of cherry pie filling. That one looks more like lipstick red to me. RB On 07/03/2018 2:42 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes wrote: The '85 SD is much more attractive.

I don't mind the tan color at all. My previous F150 was about that color and I liked it. Does not show dirt like a darker color. When washed it was shinier but apart from that, one would not know it had been washed. RB On 07/03/2018 2:41 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes wrote: We all agree
