Q. Where are we going to get parts?
A. Looks like a few will be available through the dealer, and more from friendly folks in Germany.
Sure isn't like going down to the Pep Boys, though.
Q. Where are we going to get manuals?
A. Boy I wish I could find manuals.
Q. Would some other engine fit in there?
A. They tell me the M115 will bolt in...
Q. How much will all that bodywork cost?
Q. It doesn't have any brakes, either, does it?
A. Ah ha, yes it does - a lot of fluid and a little pumping bright them back enough to bleed.
Q. Will that cheesy duct tape job keep the water out of the interior until a professional arrives on the scene?
A. No, it sure didn't. The water ran in around the dried-out window seals. Had to put the whole thing inside the garage.
Q. Aren't groundhogs and squirrels and mice going to get inside unless we put the engine cover back on?
A. Don't know about the big ones, but the mice sure like it...
Q. How do the German folks prounouce "319er"?
A. We have the answer! (It's "Dreineunzehner", if you can't hear the audio.) Vielen Dank to tec, member of the 319er Club and the Mercedes O319/L319 Forum.
Q. If Kelly's having a hard time making progress on his zither book already, won't this interesting project in his backyard draw his attention away even more?
