Operation Dirty Penny - '75 Merc 240D

[Veesenmayer]

I had originally started to until someone in here found this for me. It was in hungarian but google translate helped with that. Most of them anyway.

Hi!

Very nice build, I would also grab the chance to contribute to your build, since I am Hungarian I translated the missing parts

C: generator regulator
F3: brake fluid level encoder
F4: brake fluid indicator
G1: glow indicator (for glow plugs)
J3: interior lights
J4, J5: door switch for the interior lights
W3: wiper switch for the foot

Hope I could help, if you have any questions left feel free to contact!

edit: I've just realised that 'index' is a Hungarian term, if you haven't found out already, 'index' always means 'turn indicator light'

YOU HAVE A GERMAN SHEPARD TOO????

Damn you are just sucking the coolness from every single human on earth.

Also that tank placement is perfect.

Got the tranny bolted back up to the motor, finished the batter tray and made more progress on the hardlines.

I only buy used steering wheels with a good patina

[dineno]

Got my nardi wheel in, am I the only one who loves the fact that it's all worn?

Cut out the spare tire well and will be welding in a flat plate to mount the battery. Also got a little further on the hardlines. They polish out nicely.

I am so stoked to see this thing at SoWo! The amount of W115/W114s there will be awesome! I've had a coupe and still have my sedan. These cars are the worst addiction I've ever had. Such an awesome build dude!

I'm starting to fear that I won't be done in time. Working long hours every night to try to finish but been having to cut corners here and there and I'm not sure I want to leave out anything in the original plan :/

I feel you on keeping some polished aluminum otherwise it'd detract from the aluminum on the seats instead of adding to the effect. I'm assuming the air tank is remaining AL?

[dineno]

mounted the tank up to the brackets, just need to mount the brackets to the deck now and it's all set.

Did somebody say photoshop?



There you go.

It definitely looks good, I'll probably have to make a judgment call when the rest of the interior is together. I'm trying to do a decent amount of polished aluminum on the interior.

Might look good, maybe just do a photoshop of it and see if you like it or not haha.

Oh my bad. Yea I thought about that too, not sure if it would be too much though
