Well now we know why the car would not turn off on the stop button and why the high accelerate at the idle ...
The plate that holds this wire was loose + that they leaked a little oil from the pump, but now it's fixed and Smokey is himself again

I just wanted to be sure that the wire would remain as a pawn got to do the trick and a thicker wire
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CGD68/dsc03383.JPG]

Here are some other things that I do
Decals and paint the my snowmobile hood , the decals I cut out by hand so any machine i do not need

Now I get them to be stuck on the hat rack, Then I did something of my own with Mercedes star in the center
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CG4J9/pb110057.JPG]

But I wanted to have some sort of "speaker grill" that was different from others.
So .... how tricky they can be with wire, a little super glue and tweezers?
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CG4J9/pb120070.JPG]

Well they have been much better than the 2 holes at least for speakers

[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CG4J9/pb120072.JPG]

Where tired of all the wires that went to the + pole, so I bought a current distributor and converted so now they go one cable to positive, and a little more orderly now.

After a diesel filter change so Smokey had no problem whatsoever to reach 100 in such a short time, must take time next time for fun's sake, know that it did not reach trouble to hang on a 250D that have passed 30.000 mil
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CFFVQ/p9060029.JPG]

[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CFPF0/dsc03139.JPG]
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CFPF0/dsc03140.JPG]

Then a few nights after I hear a bang in the rear, and there was a popping sound like as if struck with a pipe in the trunk, trying to check the exhaust system, etc. but the sound was still there, I was afraid it was something with the drive shaft ... but my boy spotted this ...

My boyfriend fixed the error back with a bit of welding, so now I can run until the new comes.
I take the opportunity to grind, drill, polish and put diodes as new gear lever was in place
[Blockierte Grafik: http://forumbilder.se/CFPF0/dsc03162.JPG]

Afterwards, I sat down with the blast and blast away any small rust spots I could see, and end with a coarse grind with machine

Zitat von Hajoe

The lights look great!! But I prefere the black/red rims, because they have a classic look.

Great Job you did. You and your boyfriend are good mechanics!

The rims I have now will be painted red and black as well.
Thank you, we are fixing up his w123 and W201 now, W201 will have a new engine and then just to drive hopefully

A new trailer contact

A height Smokey, now we test the trailer test with two engines to see how he is by the road and how he fell.

He sank just 2cm so I am more than satisfied!

Zitat von Jo

I think it's beautiful. The same Profekt I have behind me.

Thank you
Really? I have a picture in my head of how my car will look like when it is finished,

too bad I can not view the images in my head

But now stands Bessi in the garage again and will be back next summer.
I do not want to run her when the paint is not fully cured.
And next year I'll even wet sand down she and polish her so the shine will arrive securely.

Door trims sitting on newer w124 (the wider version) will be painted and mounted, and an original spoiler

She should get a newer look

Zitat von thomas19740

Äußerlich sehr gut geworden ! aber der innenraum mit den carbon folien gefällt mir auch nicht,ist & bleibt für mich für golf & co. reserviert ! passt nicht zum w124 .
Ansonsten toller wagen.

thank you
Yes everybody has different tastes in cars.
And that's good, I think of how it would look if everyone likes the same thing haha

Zitat von musicboy007

Hello!

Sometimes it dosn`t matter what others say. I work a lot on my cars and you have done a lot and great work and the car shines almost like new.

Ever and ever original cars is boring and good ideas on modifications are welcome.

Again: Your car is great.

I hope you understand my english.

Thank you very much
I do want a car that stands out from the crowd, I want something that nobody else in this country has at his car

But if you see something you want to do on your car as I have, you are most welcome to borrow ideas from my car

Okay I'll look there.
No problem

Zitat von Hajoe

Oh, for this you got a great result!!!

I prefere silver on my rims, because my 260E is in original shape. But the rims are very dirty and scratched so I want to paint them.

I like the red border of you rims, so perhaps I´ll do something like this, but I´m not sure!?

Thank you very much
Do you have any picture of your 260E?

My silvery w124 will be shiny metallic black this summer and then I also be painted her 17 inch wheels black with red stripe.
I love black mercedes w124, w123 and w115.
I have 1 black w124 300E but I gave it to my boyfriend when he had birthday because I could not think of what he would get.

But if you show a picture of your w124 so I can make the rims black with red in photoshop if you want?

Zitat von Hajoe

Hy!

The rims are great!! I want to paint my rims also in the next weeks.
How you painted the rims? While painting the rims, you lay them on the bottom or used you something to rotate them?

The rest of your work lokks also very good!!

It sounds good, what will become of your color on the rims?
I put my rims on a couple of others and so I went around when I paint them
