Well the $&%# air filter is NLA now..

This is starting to be annoying.
In the last few months I've seen the center drive shaft support rubber
and now the air filter for my 73 280 go NLA.
Wonder how long we have before we can't find enough maintenance parts
to drive these things much.


The air filter! Really?
I can cobble something but jeez, one reason I got into European cars is
you can ALWAYS get maintenance items.

They are still stocked here and there, but they are listed as no longer available after current stock drys up by my back-end supplier. Also I paid $35 for one six months ago, which I thought was a rip-off at that, look at the price now. The rubber piece is the rubber that holds the center support bearing for the driveshaft.
