[diesel_mercedes] Re: 1983 W123 300D Parts

 


I saw some good stuff in there but I assume none of the new parts are for sale ? .

Folks here who have regular old radios are well advised to try one of Brian's Becker Elecronics , they're simply _KILLER_ good stereos when coupled to good quality speakers .

I just bought original dashboard speakers for my Diesel Sports Coupe and can't wait to get 'em in .

Tom @ The Classic Center sold them to me affordably and shipped right to my hovel .

[diesel_mercedes] Oh , _FUDGE_

 


So ;

We're zooming up the Pasadena Parkway in the '82 240D when I feel the rear end step out a bit on a corner , so I stopped at the next gas station and Lo ! there's a 10 penny nail sticking through the right rear tire , not far from that bad edge place where the tread meets the sidewall and cannot be repaired......

I Motored On sedatley to my buddy's tire shop a couple blocks away where he was able to install an inside patch and said it's fine .

This is the last of the KHUMO Korean $32 tires I'll never buy again , they seem to stick pretty well but I don't think they've lasted even 5 years and every time one goes flat it falls apart and isn't repairable . this one time I got lucky .

Another case of " Penny Wise and Dollar Foolish " as I bought _FIVE_ of the darn things , trying to keep SWMBO's car up nicely .

Also , I discovered water underneath the left side carpets again so I'm not done yet with the AC's evaporator tray drain...

Re: [diesel_mercedes] 200,000 miles on the clock.

 

Mary will hit 200,000 in  a week or two also, actually her body will. Her engine is around 210,000.

Jumped in the car to go to the whiskey dispensary, and noticed the odometer was at 199,999, bought a lottery ticket promising the car that I would get every little thing fixed if the ticket was a good one. Turning back into the driveway at home it hit 200,001, never had a car that I likes so much with that many miles on it.

[diesel_mercedes] 1983 w123 300d parts

 

I have posted pictures of 1/2 my parts that have accumulated and are taking up space. I will post pics of the rest of the parts in a day or two. If anyone is desperate for anything, let me know. I may use them all "someday" but I may die before "someday" gets here too.
