    This write up on the Air Suspension Compressor could well be handy for Bryce with his newly acquired 6.3 at some future date. Regards Styria

    W126 hood pad replacement

    I prefer to remove the bonnet from the car for two reasons. First of all, removing all old insulation is messy and it is much easier to scrape off all the old glue with an Orbital Sander and, futhermore, all the crumbly foam is simply removed from the car. As far as application of the glue is...

    300SEL 6.3 For Sale

    I was aware of that Mark, and it came as a real shock. Did you ever meet him ? He was a fabulous fellow, very smart the way he worked his property, At one time, when the whole of NSW was in drought, Bill still had plenty of feed for his sheep and cattle. He was also an Amateur Racing Driver...

    300SEL 6.3 For Sale

    A good outcome for all parties. Information may not be available to Bryce as regards the involvement I have had with the car many years ago. I bought it at auction some thirty years ago, prepared and resprayed the interior at my Glenorie Workshop, bought and fitted GAHH leather and carpets with...

    It seems that political correctness was already much to the fore even ten years ago. Regards Styria

    Found Source For My Chin Spoiler

    Mark, it's a bit like fitting an after market AMG replica such as we have done to our 116s - a definite visual improvement over the standard fitting. Regards Styria

    S212

    Very impressive from an exterior point of view. Wouldn't mind some pics of the interior and also perhaps some of the mechanical specifications, such as engine capacity, petrol or diesel etc. Regards Styria

    M100 6.9 EFI conversion

    I wonder what the benefits would be - more power, cleaner and more economical running - it could be an interesting project, albeit at considerable dollar cost, and a great deal of time. Regards Styria

    My M-100 Rally, Part 2

    What a fantastic pictorial journey presented seventeen years ago by Anthony. I make no excuses for featuring this post again - absolutely unique and a great tribute to Anthony for posting on TkK when we were in our infancy. Regards Styria

    Comment by 'Styria' in album 'My Gleaming 6.9 Beauty'

    Okay, I hope that I am on the right track. The pictures that are part of this thread are more than likely a greater percentage of pictures submitted to TK from time to time. I have had a number of conversations with James in Rockhampton who is becoming quite heavily involved with restoring...

    Parked at Wentworthville Rugby League Club. It is easy to discern the two tone colour scheme I decided to implement when the car was painted about ten years ago. I am unable to recall the reason for the open bonnet - immediately evident is the later model Alloy Air Cleaner that came from a Ch...

    Transmissons move on

    That information is quite priceless, although one would think that major breakdowns could well test the knowledge of the Motor Vehicle Trade, and considerable costs are likely to hurt the hip pocket. I used to rebuild Borg Warner 35 and 65 boxes, and even Mercedes transmissions of the '60s and...

    RHD 6.9 washer bottle & front spoiler 3D printing option

    Yes, I have pictures but will have to dig them out. I experimented with two colors, namely Black and Silver. Bear in mind, the colour of my Gleaming Beauty is MB877 Petrol, somewhat quite beautiful "Greenish" shade. I chose Astral Silver. BTW, I am referring to the original two black halves...

    Free m110 injector holders x8

    James, I think that confirms my belief that your 450 has the D-type fuel injection. I wonder if you could confirm it. Regards Styria
