Seatbelts were an option in 1963. My 190dc was purchased factory direct
through an olds dealer in PA and I guess the buyer didnt view them as
worthwhile, so he didnt spec it that way.

If it was a fed car or one legally imported, in 1969, it was sold new 
with seatbelts.   People took them out, as some states required use, "if 
installed."

shoulder harness required in Germany by 1962.  No belt.  my 1962 190Dc

Re: [MBZ] Diesel finny

Weldments and threaded fasteners (nuts) were present in the cars since the 
early 1960s. My 1962 300SE had the nuts in place with rubber plugs in them on 
the floor and “B” pillar.  Belts were optional until the early 60s, I think. 
Certainly by 1968 they were standard. Someone may have removed yours.

Getuftet. Proper tufting (as produced by the many, many Hispanically-owned 
upholstery shops near my home) is less checkerboardy, a bit more creative. I’ve 
never seen anything like that before.

Love the 8 track in the dash. At least it appears to be an 8 track player. Goes

The picture of the engine compartment showed an intact engine.   The 
text said spare parts included.  Looked like there may be two heads off.

More correctly "Ran until parked and head was removed for unknown reason"

[Jim Cathey via Mercedes]

On a 1960 Falcon you can take the head off in 20 minutes.
Slightly longer to put it back on.  I know, I've done it, to remove
the accelerator pump nozzle screw that fell out and got sucked
in and embedded in a piston.  I removed the screw and put it back
together.  Didn't even use any new gaskets.  (I did need a new
screw, the pounding the piston gave it against the iron head
flattened it.)

The beauties of a pre-smog pushrod inline 6.

Re: [MBZ] 1965 Finny find

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Most 65s were a cream color, and many of those had red interiors.  I 
liked the medium (battleship) gray (DB186) on my 62 (with red interior)  
My 66 is black and tan.  (yes that has several other connotations)


Mercedes Blue always looks appropriate on a 110/111 (DB335).   What 
model is this 65?  190c, 190Dc, 220Sb?  220b?

Exterior colors:  http://www.heckflosse.nl/excol4.htm

Interior colors:  http://www.heckflosse.nl/incol4.htm  1088 is the 
typical red MB Tex.

Re: [MBZ] 1965 Finny find

[G Mann via Mercedes]

I never kiss and tell... ;)

It's a bit higher than I want for a project car, but it's a really good set
of bones... so "worth it".
Still.. it will have to wait for attention... there are other cars ahead of
it in the "project warehouse"

Taking suggestions on color combinations... anyone?

Re: [MBZ] 1965 Finny find

[G Mann via Mercedes]

Sorry, I'm a mechanical genius, but a computer idiot... I was successful
doing a direct email to Dan with pics.. So, I could make that work..

Did a hands on survey of the car yesterday. After a good look at the car, I
only find the front carb missing, the carb cover portion of the air
breather, and the Right tail light present with lens broken.  Doors all
close like bank vaults [need latches oiled ASAP]

Paint is done to chalk by AZ sun.. Interior is intact and unmolested but
sun toasted. And, more importantly, ZERO rat or mouse. Floor pans and
rockers are rust free. in fact, the only rust I could find was in the
trunk, behind the rear wheels in the spare tire well on the Right, and at
the bottom of the trunk well on the Left... Very repairable.

Body is absolutely straight, good solid sheet metal, ALL the glass is
original and clear, no chips or cracks... window rubber is sun toasted.

Now, I have to decide what to do with it... It's a perfect candidate for a
complete body, chassis, interior restoration. Ohh... almost forgot, engine
turns over freely, plugs out. so good start for a running car.. In fact. if
I had a set of carbs and a jerry can of fuel, I'm betting I could start and
drive it on the trailer.[after mounting a set of tires, just happen to have
a "spare set" ;)) ]

Car comes with two sets of keys and original documents and owners manual.
Send a direct email and I'll push some pics over to you, if you like.

Grant...

Re: [MBZ] 1965 Finny find

[Dan--- via Mercedes]

Too much project.

I just don’t have the resources or space to deal with something that’s as far 
along as this car.  I need a driver quality car that’s intact but needs minor 
stuff and/or freshening.

That and I don’t do bodywork, so the minute I have to send something out the 
s start to get out of control.

Re: [MBZ] 1965 Finny find

[G Mann via Mercedes]

Bob,
I'm going to look at the 65 Finny late this morning. I have a few pics
already. Looks like a solid and unmolested Finny. The only parts I see
missing are the hubcaps and the air breather. Some surface rust on the
trunk lid and rear fenders where is likely got direct Arizona sun in the
carport it was setting in, Engine bay is complete and unmolested, Interior
is "Arizona dry".. but all there. Steering wheel is original, but has some
cracks [I've seen much worse, it's actually not bad]

More info after I put hands on, if you are interested.  I truly do not need
"another project".. but it's to solid and intact to not go look at it.
Engine turns over, so not locked up.. Tires are toast.

Grant...

Yep, my parents bought it and passed it to me. My dad isn't a great one for 
maintenance so it'd have gotten the oil changed "sometimes" before I got it. I 
was religious about 3,000 mile oil changes even though the book said (I think) 
5,000. I did 10w40 in the summer and 5w30 in the winter although I always used 
the cheapest oil I could get. It leaked less with the thicker oil in the

yeah, I drove a 47 shovey 1.5 ton truck with its 4th and 5th engines 
early on.  First in the fields long before a driver's license, then on 
the road later.  When I got the DL, Then I drove it  a lot and the F500 
with 14' refer box a few times, including when it blew out a spark 
plug.   The 65 impala (283) with unsynchro first gear was a rocket 
compared to the old trucks.

I have been there too. My father was a fan of smaller engines and manual 
transmissions. I learned to drive on a full size pickup with an inline 6 
and 3 on the tree.
Passing on 2 lane highways meant planning ahead. Fortunately, the 
highway that I drove most often was something I knew well so I knew 
where the potential passing areas were.
I don't consider my 115 300D a real dog in city traffic and it will 
cruise down the highway at a pretty good pace, but it was truly not 
built for passing on 2 lane highways.

Mine had the 4.3l v6. Not bad even with the 4wd. Kind of wish I had kept it
as it wasn't rusty. Had been in TN all its life till I brought it to RI.
Karen used it as a dog hauler for her golden retriever rescue organization.

Re: [MBZ] The Finny for Poos is still available

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

It is not a vergasser.  It will go up and down hills just fine.  It is a 
diesel.  It has torque.  They are tons of fun to drive!  No other car 
has ever been as much fun to drive as a 110/111.  They have similar 
acceleration times to a 240D automatic. If they are tweaked to 65 HP, 
then they accelerate a lot faster.

I expect that it's geared such that it will be fine in town. Getting 
on the
freeway and keeping speed up hills might be an issue, but then there 
are no

hills in FL ???

Didn't the Luscombe have a habit of collapsing the landing gear if you landed a 
little too hard, or am I thinking of another plane of that era.?

Because the Luscombe 8E is mildly aerobatic!  Actually, you have "low and
slow" for fun scenic touring (Luscombe, Breezy), enjoying the evening,
etc., there is "high and fast" (Tailwind W10) for getting somewhere in a
hurry or racing, and there is the abililty to haul a load (Cessna 182).
Just like cars, no one aircraft fits all missions.

Re: [MBZ] The Finny for Poos is still available

[Dan--- via Mercedes]

I don’t have the time, resources or space to do something that major. Also, as 
stated previously, I’m a purist. It does nothing for me to repower a vintage 
car.  I’ll leave that to the hotrodders.

Ask Lt. Don why one of his airplane buddies would want to fly a Luscombe.

Just save the original so it could be put back in and find a bigger, 
better motor! Not suggesting a SBC, but just a 3 liter diesel. Even 
normally aspirated, it would have to be an improvement.

Isn't a 2 liter diesel going to be pretty anemic even with a manual 
transmission?

So, are you a purist in the sense that you would not consider swapping 
in a later motor?

You KNOW you're going to buy this car.  You know you WANT this car.  You
know WE want you to buy this car.

Offer $2500 and drive it home.
