My to do list... hmmm this is going to be a long one....
On the 85 Euro TDT 1. replace the crappy tires. 95% tread left and new and already a broken belt, and 2 are washborded (from front suspension which is now new). 2. repaint correctly 3. repair a few spots in the interior leather. 4. Other standard maintenance. Been driving the car everyday and it's been great. but over 10k on it in the last 8 months. On the 99 E320 wagon (wife's) 1. She's informed me that it needs to be repainted and a few things repaired like a cracked rear bumper skin. 2. Car needs a new blower motor. I have the cover off right now and you can give it a tap and it will work. (brushes) 3. Head Liner. On my 87 300D 1. finish head job. (in the works) 2. drive it and see what it needs. I did a lot of work to it before the head issue, but car has been sitting 2 years now. On the 94 E320 1. Drop Trans and fix (Trans is got 1 bolt left holding it in) 2. Tires 3. Fix some rust issues. (Por 15 and some body work needed.) 4. Headliner 5. Windshield 6. Have leather drivers seat repaired (standard wear and one tiny rip) 7. Whatever else it needs... 95 Land Rover discovery 1. Finish getting Om617 mated to the 5 speed. 2. Get 2 inch body lift and 3 inch regular lift (to help with oil pan clearance issues) 3. Get engine and trans back in... huge list there.... 4. Body and paint once tested 5. Nato Rims and new tires. Avoid buying any more cars until everything else is done. |

Just finished recovering the front seats new fresh leather, and the armrest.
Replaced the painted rear vent painted housing(on late model W140's) with the vinyl covered one(from early W140's). Replaced the side rubber mirror gaskets. The car is near perfectly restored. I just need a few little bolts here and there.. Martin |

'93 400SEL
1 - get the car running, it will not start 2 - motor mounts 3 - get CEL light repaired 4 - PS pump leak repaired *Guess it will be setting for awhile. I am a poor man. lol. *Poor (money wise) folk should not buy a W140 Mercedes. I wonder if that old woman that won $380,000,000 would like to make a small donation to me to get my W140 repaired? |
