❤️ Distronic on a 2002 that is amazing.
@Davidzetroyeah you’ve done very well putting this together. It’s absolutely beautiful looking through the rest of the pictures. I will tell you that the diving board bumpers are not as hard on the eyes as with other C107 color/wheel combinations - I think it might be the wheels that make it tolerable. Well put together!
This is a really nice looking car, with a set of euro bumpers this will be absolutely beautiful - the way it was meant to look. With regards to the rocker work, one of the root causes for rust in front of the rear wheel arch is the opera windows leaking water. Hopefully the shop that did the work confirm that no further water is coming in through there and that the floor under the reat seat is whole. It’s pretty easy to see if the two glass panels have separated from the plastic center sandwich section - a simple tap test will reveal whether the glass pane is rattling or not. And believe it or not, Mercedes sort of planned for moisture in there as the center sandwich section contains a compartment filled with desiccant! Edit: the open cell foam panels underneath the back seat carpet on this one do look nice and hole, usually when they take on moisture, they will expand and crack.
Coolest thing I’ve seen on here all day. Tons of fun for the money. The less intrusive LPT setup onto the relatively high static compression basic engine gives you gobs of torque from idle on up - where you spend most of your time! They got this one right, vice going the ketchup motor route of for example early Porsche Turbos.
@Stuttgart_Steelwould you mind answering my PM please?
Does the pulse function on the driver’s seat work?
Has it passed smog in CA?
@silverarrowauto there are two red buttons to push in and then lever the bottom of the seat gently out. Reason for asking is I have seen pristine SLC’s with rotten floors in there because the jalousie windows let in water behind the trim and under the rear seat.
Would it be possible to take the bottom of the backseat out and show what the floor underneath looks like?
