Mike Is the Pertronix working well? For how many miles have you had it installed? My car (similar to yours) starts first time very time, and almost immediately...
I've put the details of today's adventures on the w108 forum and linked some pictures from my cellphone. I'm beat! http://w108.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=250...
Hi Hein, I had the Pertronix for about 5 years, in fact we were communicating directly w/ the late Randy Durrance at the time we ordered our unit. The reason...
I looked at the update and it looks great. I wonder if many people will know what a SIII XJ6 is when you mentioned it on a Mercedes forum...hehe No pictures of...
Paul There is a section on the W108 gallery for other cars, throw some pictures of the Jag there. I have pictures of my Rover, Ford and MG on that site. All...

Al; Congratulations. Now the fun starts. It looks pretty solid, but you'll have a long road ahead of you. The Nardi steering wheel is a nice touch! Chris ...
Al; Are you going to rebuild/restore it and keep the stock mechanical F/I or convert it over to electronic F/I? If you are looking at converting (possibly...
Chris Thanks , I've met Karl before and am familiar with his work. He certainly is innovative. Right now I need to figure out what needs doing before I decide....
There's been quite a few comments recently about whether or not to just fix it or to restore things on our 108/109 automobiles. I currently own a 1972 (1971...
I have to agree, preservation or complete restoration - Tom Hanson and his crew at the Mercedes Classic Center have been very helpful in finding parts for my...
Restoring cars is an interesting game. I guess if I liked American muscle cars, I may be able to justify a concourse restoration as I may make money on it. For...
There is no money in this unless you have something very rare to begin with and it just fell into your lap. Oh, and it really doesn't need a whole lot! Ann ......
Hello all; I guess I better quit lurking and start chiming in more to avoid getting cut. Been busy with some other aspects of life, like remodeling the house....
David! It's good to hear from you again! It's not likely that you'll get cut in a hurry, your one of the first members. On the window regulator topic. Have you...
Al: Thanks. I do put white grease on them when I put them in. Alignment is something I should look at. The regulator assembly seems to be pretty soft,...
Hallo Mike Thanks for your answer. Did you have to change the coil for a lower resistance primary winding coil, or do you use the standard? Kind Regards Hein. ...
Hi One of the guys here in South Africa spent R280 000 ((about $40 000) to restore his 6.3. It would seem he went the distance as he, for instance, sent the...
Off topic (way off): I've always wondered why Karen is such a popular name for certain woman (I was typing lady but deleted that). Regards Hein. (Please don't...
It sound like the regulator is working too hard. I'm in the process of replacing the glass "tracks" (for the want of a better word) on my car because it became...

Kind List Members, Based on the replies I've read so far, I am wondering if my point was not understood properly. First of all, none of my cars are what you'd...
not that would be an interesting project. pictures of the under carrige are a must on this one - my guess is that the floors/rockers are not in the greatest...
The Pertronix points conversion is no doubt a decent and simple choice to upgrading from the points/condenser ignition but by no means the better overall...
That color looks frighteningly like the kitchen counters I had removed and replaced not too long ago. Painful to the eye when one wasn't quite awake. Visable...
Yep, you wont even need a high level brake light with that one Ann. I saw this car listed on Ebay in 2005. I think it's a parts car. ... From: ADP To:...
I am coming to the end of the road with my massive wire mess. I am hoping to have my 4.5 inspected and on the road by friday. However I have found a large gap...
