Forget the catalog. It's about the folder that's included

Complete NOS door lock set W116. I bet he'll accept 250..

This guy is offering 2 W116 front fenders, new.

The stickers say "Gordon" That's a famous classic car panel company in Taiwan, specialized in 50-70's replica panels, and big in the USA among the muscle car fans, since Gordon mainly produces panels that nobody else has on offer.
Would be interesting to find out how good a fit they are.
I am surely gonna drop by that factory soon, and find out what else they have for W116
That news, the same day my front fenders finally arrived here, after 1 year delay in shipping.  By the looks of it, I could have driven an hour and picked 2 brand new ones up cheaply..1 year ago..

Pretty mint Minimax, and negotiable price I would think.
Remember that there is no ocean or air transport for such items, without first adding a 1000usd explosive-proof box. (serious)

He may even take 75 euros..

How about this? Certainly wants a lot but did the 116 ever have a tool kit with all this?

[UTn_boy]

The motometer tire pressure gauge was a separately available accessory, and did not come with the tool kit.  The darker colored tools are from a much earlier model.  So no, the kits never came with all of what is in this one. 

[floyd111]

Indeed, be it that this motometer is not from the W116 era neither. The correct one is rounder, all plastic, and it says "made in west-germany.
This kit is really a mish-mash.
Must say I have never seen a black MB plier before..
I'd pick the fuse box and leave the rest.

[rumb]

you can buy the fuse box new from MB.

[floyd111]

Does the new box also have a star on it?

Nothing special on first sight, but the interior looks like it may be in good condition. Parchment velours is a rare find in good shape. The luggage nets look like they've never been used, and the front seats have ortho-pads.
May be worth asking for more detailed seat pics, if he's willing to part the car.

Just got the Minimax, mentioned above, delivered today. Never discharged, and in mint condition throughout, including the bracket and straps! Even the factory final check sticker from April 1977 is there.

All things considered, it was a good catch at 120EUR delivered. Really easy seller to deal with too.

Thanks for the hint Stan.

[floyd111]

Your welcome. You did well waiting for one like this to pop up. -I have been less patient on many occasions.

[ptashek]

Another Minimax, complete with (R107) bracket, and reasonably priced.
