Hey stranger. I saw you the other day getting out of your pimped-out Dakota. I was in a hurry so I couldn't stop but I was in the silver s2000 that was going down the hill to my girlfriend's house.


What's up with your 7?

Damn, you should sell that thing to the Iranian Goverment. All it needs is a flag on each of the front fenders.

You brother-in-law has a sweet looking Benz in his garage. I personally like the Dakota with the huge dent in it's roll pan.

Correction - He is my Wife's Brother In-Law

That is an 88 BMW 635CSi in his garage

and finally the Dakota doesn't have a rollpan just a mangled Bumper.

I do not know if the Timing chain has been changed Though i suspect it has as the car has 250k+ miles on it now, and I am fairly certian it had a valve job done shortly before I bought it, at which time I suspect the timing change may have been replaced. I will try to borrow a Digital camera and get some shots of the interior for you.

Hello all, haven't been on here in quite a while. I am just cleaning out the garage for race toys and found a brand new J&S Knock Computer I never installed.... anyways, I have it posted on the board.

How are you doing Max? I like the looks of the MBZ better than the BMW. The '73 looks awesome!

The latest from us is we sold the beloved RX-7 to one of our best friends. My wife cried when she gave it to him. She is now waiting for the new RX-7 to come out.

regards

Rick

Der Panzer is really nice. Does the AC still work? If you listed it in The Star or in the for sale section of the Mercedes Benz Club of America Forum, it'll sell fast.

Because its my car and I can ask anyting I want also the other thread is now linked to posts on some other boards that list the price as 2.5k.

I gave you guys here first crack at it at $2k, but have not had any serious offers from anyone so I have now listed it on AutoTrader.com and the MBCA Forums at the 2.5k price.
