Brian told me I was being insolent by not checking in with the group! So, I apologize. Been really busy with 'stuff. Bought a GM 6.5L diesel Suburban a few years ago, had my way with it and am trying to sell it now. Moved on to a 2014 Ram Megacab Cummins earlier this year to haul the trailer and well, those both required me to cheat on my first love, you all, and spend time on thetruckstop.us and cumminsforum.com. But I still have the old girl and drive her around from time to time. Bought my 12 year old a '67 Mustang Coupe which will be a complete restoration job. So not sure how much time I'll have to dedicate to the Mercedes. But she'll sit for a couple months, I'll go over glow her once and fires up like no one's business. You never forget (or completely get over) your first love.

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Hi Ben !
Glad to hear you're still with us Ben ! .
I'd forgotten about the Gray Ghost and remembered looking at your body work efforts .
Every time I see a nice old rust free W-116 sitting , waiting to be crushed I think of you .

Brown one got parted. The old gray ghost (1979 300SD) is doing quite well, thank you very much! '79 with head off the '80 and cam from an '85. Was dealing with the black goo but think I'vev got it sorted. Now on to vacuum issues…
