looks good..

why weren't the bumpers removed? Its fairly straight forward.. 6 bolts for the front and its off.

Yes absolutely they will be tearing down the rest of the car this afternoon.
Still another week or so and then she'll be almost like new!
Cheers

W126 n00b! For the front there are 8 bolts if you pull the shocks with the bumper, 10 if you leave them on the car. 6 is correct for the rear

:D

Sorry this happened but look forward to the restore photos.

Well gentleman she's ready for your viewing enjoyment.... http://benzguy.piczo.com/gettingabrandnewpaintjob?cr=7&linkvar=000044

I could have sworn it was 6

Anyone else notice the 123 in the background of pic 23 of the bodywork section?

Nice photos and car BTW!

I'm surprised they can even prime anything in that so very poorly lit booth!!

Thank's guy's.

Its too bad she'll be on the auction block pretty soon.She's not making the trip to Oz unfortunately,the cost of converting to R/H drive is way to costly.

Yes it is a 123,and he has about another 15 or 16 126's and 123's in his yard....

You can't drive a LHD car down there eh?

You can if the car is more then 30 years old....
