Hello guys, my Merc isn’t lucky to be in a well-ventilated garage, but in a standard double-finished garage. The Merc is covered in the garage with a thin fabric hood, but unfortunately it has light airframe set. How can I best maintain, preserve and remove the original paint and the airframe? Furthermore, the wheelwheel has dense airframe, which kind of paint would you recommend? My plan with the wheelwheel, was with water sanding paper the rust away, underground lap k then “normal” paint. After that I would mount the Fender, so the wheel would be protected by constant stone fire. I would be happy if you had a advice for me.

Friends, for my 2011 Cadillac CTS 4 Coupe I would like to buy an OBD diagnostic device… It’s less about deleting significant error messages (the way leads me to the workshop) but I’d like to make codings, e.g. day running light (if that works at all), learning tire pressure sensors, hopping on when locking etc. A request from a supplier provided that devices for this purpose are not less than € 3,000 (!) for my vehicle. However, I had “my drop” within reach… Please let me know if this information is correct or rather a fake… First of all, thank you Jens

I gave the sun visors of my Pontiac Catalinas to the autosattler in 1973, the decorative seam should be sewn. J calls me and says that all the material is torn open while sewing and I should buy new ones. I’m slightly angry! Is there no new car or common vehicle where you simply buy sun visors quickly. What would you do now? Can someone call me a reliable autosattler who refers to them anew?

Hi Cruiser I’m in favour of making a cruising thread here, because that’s what this is all about when driving a US car! Post your experiences and especially your cruising videos! So newcomers can catch the feeling of driving a US car a little bit. The vehicles are much better to enjoy in action than in sterile photos. I start with:Mustang Generation Cruising Switzerland from June 2008 (Yesterday) Looking forward to your posts Bluesilentpro

Hello together! I’m going to the west coast at the end of April, and of course I want to get a few pieces next to the holiday (of course my girlfriend doesn’t know yet), now my question. If it’s parts e.g. rims that I don’t get in hand, I can send myself the same thing, customs and eust. are of course clear. Have the luck that falls into time the Pomona swap meet. Thank you very much!

Moin moin together, I have a question regarding a key number for a Dodge Ram. The vehicle was imported by the previous owner from the USA and therefore has as type key number 2 only as so often known zeros. However, if I enter the first registration date of July 1, 1999 in the car letter and in the search 164kW machine I get the notification that this vehicle was built only until 06/1998 in this version. I suspect that the vehicle was built 98 However, I still lack the key number for 2 as repairs have to be carried out. According to Google, the 5.2 L V8 with 164KW has only been installed until 06.1998. In this respect, there is now a small puzzle and hope that someone can help me further. I look forward to your answers Best regards Sascha PS: I am looking for a side window front passenger and for a C1500 Stepside a gear converter, if Since someone can help out please PN to me. Thank you very much

Hello all, I am currently restoring a 1978 Camaro and have some questions and hope you can help me. I need new dampers and a new spiral spring in the front, because the parts are defective or almost rusted through. While browsing on Rockauto.com I also found a combined unit for my Camaro (see picture). Now the question: When I install such combined shock absorbers, do I still need the original spiral spring?! Or can I do all this? leave it out and simply install the shock absorber/spring element and everything is good?! Thank you for your answers, I hope you can help me. Greetings Cam

Hello. my getiebe seems to be spinning somehow. Again and again the car ruptures while rolling comfortably in the 4th gear. That’s about as if the gang jumps out briefly. has someone had something like this before or knows what it might be?

HI US Car Fans, Maybe someone can help me here?! Have the following problem with my ’76 shelf 5,7 V8; every time I drive around with him and he is really warm, he goes out and jumps back on when he has cooled down a little. What could it be? I have already tried various things, but before I tell you what I have done I want to see what you say about it. PLEASE PLEASE help!!!! MfG Dine & Matze
