I have this new style one if somebody needs it. Allen _________________________________________________________________ Messenger Cafi ^W open for fun 24/7. Hot games, cool activities served daily.

The W123 Estate ("Shatoya" , so named by a friend of mine from Memphis because "she so preeeetty") was parked at a friends house overnight recently, the neighbour decided to Ronseal his fence and covered the car in 5 year wood stain.. it ain't budging.. even with panel wipe/t-cut.... altho Tea tree oil has shifted the brown bit but there are tiny marks left all over the car... they said they'd stump up the $$ to fix tho.. which is nice.. Speaking of Tea tree oil... we always used it in the past to ward off head colds etc.. but you should see it remove road tar/stains from paint work... its AMAZING! Get some (just a little, health/natural foods shops have it) and give it a go! http://www.socal.com/artman/publish/printer_450.shtml So... the driveway is clearing off a bit, Shatoya will need a respray, the Roadster needs a coil (its arching.. nice light show in the dark), the '82 W123 coupe (Cleopatra.. named by the same guy as Shatoya) needs a leak in the power steering fixed + leak in gearbox fixed. Then both w123's will be up for sale... to make room for my next project, an '85 AMG SEC500 ;-) Oh.. and in between all this.. I've gotten engaged and set a date for getting married on the 8th of Dec! LOL Glutton for punishment eh?
