    AMG OZ Split Rims 8.5" x 17" R129 W126 W107

    As title, set of four with an ET18 offset so will fit R129 W126 and W107 without the need for spacers. Anything else will likely need spacers or modifications of some kind. One wheel has damage to an outer rim and requires splitting to fit a new rim, hence low starting price. Full details and...

    How rare is a W107 manual gearbox?

    My wife would like a W107 (I got to choose the last car), but would much prefer a manual. Theres a manual 350 SL on E-bay for spares, current bid £820. So my question is how rare is the manual gearbox? Is it rare enough to warrant buying the car on e-bay just for the gearbox? Thanks as...

    Hi folks. Just found this forum. Excellent. I am getting seriously tempted by these vintage SL's, now starting to look very elegant if unmolested and reasonably priced. Which engine would you reccommend? The 420 seems a good bet, but Honest John has some scary stuff about looking for oil...

    Old W107 engine questions

    I've heard the 380 V8 engine much maligned in the past. What's wrong with it? Anything I can do to make it better before it goes back in? How much work is involved in changing to a double-row timing chain, and is it really necessary? Thanks all
