New Member, 280 SL Euro 1979 and 67 VW Beetle
Had these cars for about 4 years restoring the VW. I'll get pictures in soon. The 107, M110 280 sl euro spent 14 years in an upstate NY barn til I recued it for $1300. I've got new interior and roof and am waiting to put it in the shop soon for some welding and body work. Euro cloth interior.
Somethings draining my battery quickly and I can only go as long as I'm on the gas. If I slow down, I stop. Starts instantly but won't idle low. Alternator, regulator?
I've got a mechanic friend so we'll probable get it running better by the time it goes to shop. Looking forward to looking around at some of the old 107's Euro.
My VW club on LI has over 150 members, I'll drop a picture of that off the chassis restoration soon. Regards.
