I’m glad this post was brought back Styria. I may not have seen this at all. Thank you. A great read and a great result all those years ago.

Motec, What a read. If I go back to re look at this car, I have written a good list of things to check. I can still hear that beautiful V12 ticking over at idle like mums Singer. So smooth and quiet. I do hope to go back and drive it.

Thanks mate. I’ll be sure to check this out tonight when I get home.

Well, there you go. Thanks mate. So, What is the next project? Tell me yours and I’ll tell you mine :D

Outstanding video Bryce. A great find. Yes Anthony, that story needs to be up in lights somewhere :D Question. Can someone please tell me why these cars are called a “coupe” when clearly they are 4 door or a sedan or saloon?

Weren’t we just talking about a V12 S600? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MERCEDES-BENZ-V12-S600-LIMOUSINE-SEDAN-AUSTRALIAN-DELIVERED-RARE-COLLECTOR/173884700725?hash=item287c55f835:g:Tt4AAOSwEAhcwmzy

Anthony, I’m with you, the blue with a creamy interior is just one of the best combos going. My work mate has just collected his new Volvo SC60 in exactly a colour like this. Truely heaven inside. The exterior is called blue denim.

Michael, How is this? Thanks for the tips mate, nice and easy to follow. Uploading already reduced images is very quick to upload and I just like to ensure my higher res images don’t take up to much space. Just me overthinking things like all engineers do :D

At last the S430 is 100% finished and detailing all done. I think it’s shiny enough :D

Styria, You may be out of luck mate. The current Toyota Australia web site does not show Aurion available.

Sean, If you really do need a high res quality reverse camera for you car, you can purchase a camera that wires quite quickly into the reverse light circuit right in the boot, and is Bluetooth and will come up via the app on your phone. So if you have a high res phone like a new Samsung Galaxy...

Tim, My hands and fingers will need 6 months to recover, thank you for the compliment. Washing cars is relaxing sometimes Motec. I knew Brian would never divulge :D Here is me explaining to a fellow club member how I got my Shadow so shiny. I don’t know if he believed me or not :D

Last stage of detailing complete. Engine bay. My secret cleaning tool The Professor Brian mentioned, works very well under here.

This car looks like a nice one, and a great price for sure. I wonder if the red with olive interior is an original combo? http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1212284346?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms

Gents, New images loaded until I can get replacement drivers mat. Can’t buy genuine any more. Passenger mat is as new, they just don’t photograph well.

Gents, Some pics of the front area just after vacuuming, but before shampooing. Carpet still as new. Dash has come up as new also. As mentioned pics will be updated this weekend, at present I’m awY traveling almost more than I am at home.

This 450SLC looks good for the price. Would like some more images, like interior and engine bay. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1215169652?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms Another good Price 450. The rust is a concern...

Michel, Here is another monstrosity you can ask “just why” again. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1213794488?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms

That’s ok. One day we can discuss new modern truck tyres. Very high tech. Sean, I recently sold my beloved 72, Shadow, I was very sorry to see her go. That would have been interesting mate. In relation to tyres, here are some modern, wet, dry and intermediate tyres. Wet weather tyre...

Here are a few more 450 2 doors. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1213198579?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1205352210?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms...
