I was checking out your sig, you have a Ton of MB's, awesome! You run grease in any of them? That's what the musician guys I know do w then anyways. So I guess I can say that your the local MB guru?

I usually go down to Lester Carr's in Warren & talk w Frank when I'm in over my head. He told me my parts wouldn't work.

Thanks,
Dave

I came out of the engineering department so I didnt spend much time over in Bliss. I did take a survey of jazz class once, its a pretty cool. Can't remember the instructor's name though, seemed like cool guy.

Nah no grease in em. When I was in high school a few of us were plotting to do it but we just didnt have the space to store anything. Actually we had intended on making some biodiesel but, again, space was limited. I think my tools occupy most of it! I had a guy who was driving back to Indiana stop over with his 300SD (for cruise control work) and he had was running some wvo though his. Pretty neat.

I'd say that's a fair bet, ha. I dont think anyone in our area, outside of Lester and Frank, have as much an interest in these old cars as my buddy Mike (he owns the a 560/420/300 listed in my sig) and I . Our family has been going to Lester since 83. Both Lester and Frank have always been good guys and fair priced. I still have no idea what Frank's last name is!

What parts did he say wouldn't work? The spindle from the 126 on your 123? I know that on your 123 the original part's part number was replaced by the one that came off the 126, at least, that's what the EPC tells me.
