RE: [diesel_mercedes] Oil Pan Pixies

 

This is not the Skid Plate you refer to but may be a part you could use:

These people may also have the Skid Plate if you ask them.

 

Also, try http://www.junkyarddog.com

 

I know that the skid plate was an option but U.S. buyers don’t feel the need. Both sets of my grandparents bought 1961 Mercedes. The college prof took European delivery and had the skid plate. The farmer took delivery in Eugene, Oregon and did not have the skid plate. Bill in Oregon

I SWEAR it has to be evil Oil Pan Pixies sneaking into my back yard at night because if I ever heard/felt the car bottoming out like this , I'd change how I drove over that particular area .

 

Pic. # 1 : oil pan with a multitude of dents and scrapes , the corner near the drain plugs eventually gets too thin and cracks , beginning a slow drip I discover after I've parked it in my Son's or Shirley's spotless driveway .

 

 . . .

 to the old mangled drain plug ~ not sure it you can see it but about 1/5th of it is ground off (I really must find a factory skid plate)
