Well Jodi is still traveling so I had to run to grocery to fetch dinner fixings! I did not read nutrition panel as I am guessing serving size is likely two tablespoons or some nonsense. I figure it is healthy, has nuts and dairy!

Check this out. You should watch it all but start at 16:05 just for fun.
 
I’m getting bad ideas. This little sucker is freaking LIGHT is be surprised if it weighed more than 2400 pounds. But I measured the tubs, can easily fit a a 11 inch wide tire under the back, engine bay would clear a small block Mopar and the trans mission tunnel is massive

1974 Mercedes 240 CI with only 7084 km on it. My great aunt and her husband in Stugartt Germany bought it new in 74. But lives one block from the train station and 4 blocks from so they rarely drove it. Has every German registration ever in the console, mileage is true.

Dads been extremely protective of it until today. Finally got it out and let my brother and I drive it

Cool

I lived just up the hill from the Sindelfingen Mercdes plant (Böblingen)
 
Been here before. But it looks like I finely resolved my oil leak. Just started it after the last round of wrenching. Looks dry. So far. I really think it was seeping thru the rear main cap to block. There was zero sealer there from builder. When I replaced the rear seal I sealed it but messed up the gasket install using the wrong type gasket. Really am hoping that is behind me....

I ended up using every trick in book sealing this. I used a steel reinforced one piece gasket. The two spots in front I RTVd with black. Built it up before install. As well as rear sealing surface. Let set up over night. RTV gasket to block. Bolted it on. Let set up overnight. Removed bolts and used RTV to attach pan to block. Making sure to get corners with RTV. Bolted it back on. Now normally I will not use RTV for this gasket. But I was at a loss what else to do.... We will see...

I hope this is the solution
 
Got several more windows re-caulked. Used the multitool for the repairs I showed earlier. The blade I was using was getting a little dull, but found it worked pretty well cutting loose the old caulk. The more I used it against the bricks, the more it looks like the special caulk removal blade they sell. lol

What are they? How fast do they cut? I used some years ago and they worked, but not fast and not cheep. Had a grit coated edge. Not sure if they were diamond bits or what...
