Done it again

One good way to deal with that little "problem" - just say: "look, at least you won't find me down the pub chasing other women" 8)
Mind, I should so shut up! My missus good as gold what with putting up with me keeping double figures cars :shock:
Even converted her to a passion of older Mercs and a true love of G's(she gives them names, personalities and even decides if they are he's or she's) :lol:

now, if shed let you buy that black one at the auction none of this would have happened!

ok, its a one owner from new, from sheffield, it was used to farm the kids to a jewish school from sheffield to leeds. It was going down the M1 when smoke was belowing out the back, it was towed to a garage where the guy said it was siezed, but I charged the battery and it turned over freely, but as the tiiming wheel (the green one)was not on it it wont start,but there was no clattering. Its was left on a drive for 3 years and covered in green slime. I paid £100 for it. I was going to do it up, or turn it into a pick up but then I bought a 560G so it had to go. Its worth the effort to restore, although the rear doors need attention.

I would put it back together if I were you as it may have been the valve guides causing the smoke.
