<title>SL issues</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=17469</link>
<description><![CDATA[I&#39;m usual at the G-forum when visiting this web site. This time I&#39;m asking for some help regarding the SL class.<br />I&#39;m presently working in the US for a period and have considered bying a SL to take home to Norway.<br /><br />There are some special rules importing a classic and it&#39;s more or less the only way we can get a decent car in without paying in blood to the Norwegian state.<br /><br />I see that the 280SL is the most desirable of the vehicles, conclusion just by looking at the asking price. <br />Which engine has issues?  where to look for rust?<br /><br />I did see there was a linq to an article about the 107 series, but the linq did not work?<br /><br />The model year I&#39;m looking at is up to and including 1982.<br /><br /><br />]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Well it&#39;s finally October.  If all goes well, in a couple of weeks, I&#39;ll strip the interior (outdoors since I still have no garage :angry:  ) and deliver the 107 to a body shop to get the rusty frame repaired, along with any flooring that may be diseased. <br /><br />If all does not go well, then...not so much.]]></description>

<title>Bulletin  floor coverings?</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=13319</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi guys, I don&#39;t actually contribute on this thread but I was hoping I might be able to get some help from you guys. I&#39;m not sure whether the bulletin/add was for the 107 or 129 SL&#39;s but I was told that MB had an issue with excessive heat coming up through the floorboards as a reult of the exhaust being tucked up so close to the floor. To rectify this problem, MB supplied a 3/4&quot; thick material with an aluminum backing to go under the floormats. I&#39;m interested in this material for noise and heat dissapation in my 280GE. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks in advance!<br /><br />Adoni]]></description>

<title>The 107 dodges a bullet.</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=12757</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hannah swept through for a quick visit and decided that an older tree near the pad that I park the 107 on no longer needed to remain upright.  I don&#39;t know why but I had an odd feeling the night before, so I left it parked in the front drive.  When this tree fell, it landed on the corner of one of my storage containers and stopped. <br /><br />  <br />Those two happy circumstances combined to keep the car safe. <br /><br /> The empty spot is where the 107 usually resides.  The leafy branches arefrom the tree leaning across the top of the two containers.<br />  <br />  <br />  <br /> Here&#39;s the tree leaning over the containers. <br />  <br />  <br />  <br /> This is how the space above the containers is supposed to look, minus the logs and chips of course.  Thank God I bought a chainsaw a few years ago. That&#39;s the neighbor&#39;s yard and red shed.  You can see the tree with the freshly sawed end at the top of the picture. <br /><br />  <br />  <br />  <br /> Bad lighting but this is the tree almost cut down to the stump.<br />  <br />  ]]></description>
