I suppose you could buy parts from Mark . Tim and make a 560.

 

[260ebenz]

Stick with the 300SE that will do me just fine thanks Motec.

 

[motec 6.9]

Sorry Tim in a V8 only frame at the moment. Six means you just aren't in the club and taken down market taxi choice.

 

[260ebenz]

Now now Motec with a comment like that about us 6cyl owners remember you have to be kind towards me okay?

Hang on a moment, Geoff - what about your 6 cylinder job ? Must be careful not to stand in the sun with butter on your head ...... Regards Styria

I expected Tim to pick up on that tongue in cheek comment.

Now to fit a Japanese Turbo motor to improve a W126.

Would be a better idea for either your W140 or W116 Motec?

 

[motec 6.9]

Nah W126 new so less rust and most have stuffed engines at the bottom end. Meaning $1000 or less and there is always a few at that price.

Well the move was completed late last Fri 14th Nov. I'm still recovering after moving 2x 40' shipping containers, 10 cars, a garage full of equipment, a house full of furniture, theatre room & of course the 'normal stuff'. It took an hr today on the ph to Telstra to try & sort my internet & home ph but it's still not fixed....
Looking forward to feeling human again soon!

 

[motec 6.9]

Don't worry Mark feeling human is only a passing fad.

 

[Oversize]

Haha! Let's hope not

 

[Oversize]

Moved the newest purchase today so the body/engine/trans are finally all at the same place in dunno how long! Discovered the tailshaft is missing so I'm tracking that down tomorrow... And I found a nasty dint in the LR door which is rust free. Some careless idiot with a bobcat should be digging deep for that soon....

 

[Styria]

Well Mark, it looks as though you have made a fresh start. What a herculean task. Hopefully, from hereon in it's all go and non-stop. Regards Styria

 

[motec 6.9]

Don't say that I am waiting too see if I can barter with Mark when we finally get to meet.

 

[Oversize]

Yep time to make it real & make it realistic! Consolidation will be my aim over the next 6 months!

You should get here soon Motec!!

 

[motec 6.9]

It will hopefully be early next year March most likely.

 

[Styria]

It will indeed be of interest to see how Mark gets on. I certainly wish him all the best on some fairly substantial future tasks. Regards Styria

 

[Oversize]

Well I finally got internet access after a month of Telstra stuff ups, wall sockets that aren't connected to the street and a faulty modem!
