Re: [diesel_mercedes] Test of the Good Old Days

 

Well that carries me back.

The Hudson:  ..sitting in the back room of a shoe store with my friend Jay, we have a large cardboard box full of Coca-Cola bottle caps, liberated from every coke machine we could reach, prying the cork gasket out of the lids and putting them in a dish so that Jay could glue them to the fried clutch disk in his Hornet..

The Studebaker:  Fighting the wretched steering in a '47 Stude coupe, down Coyote Canyon road in Santa Barbara, wondering at each corner if the damn steering would brake an kill me at this corner, or wait 'till the next one...

The Buick... My Uncles grandparents rolling to a stop in the back yard, stinking of gasoline, the fuel pump diaphragm had failed, and pumped the straight-eight full of gas.

The Chevy...Nothing much.  They were boring when new

This is a pretty good test of your car knowledge of the 1950's. I missed two.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Shocks

 

Most of us will probably suggest Bilstein. I am writing to suggest you look at the utube video by Kent (mercedessource) that he has out on shock replacement.

I would suggest all of our group get his videos via Facebook or whatever other thing you use to connect with utube. A few are clunkers, and sure he touts his products, but he is putting together a marvelous video library of common fixes and repairs.
