[diesel_mercedes] Re: Coupla Finny Diesels For Sale

 

My 190D had no rust problems. Hardly ever was parked on cement but mostly parked under cover. It was here in N.E. Washington for 30 years. We get about 22 inches of precip here. Which for living in the Pacific Northwest is dry. Max

I got the old Chrysler FirePower hemi fired up, aired up the tires, and drove it away. It had sunk a good 4-inches or so into the Colorado clay. But, surface rust only, where the paint had worn away. It was, and still is, solid in the trunk, floorboards, etc. And that's not the only rust-free/low-rust "field find" I've purchased. Rust is not a real problem out on the High Plains. Hail and tornados, in that order, are. This is Dust Bowl country.
