If you drive your car on daily basis you can't go with my red collector plate.You can use it only limited... With the black "H" plate it's much easier...but more expensive,too. On tuesday the wiper failed in heavy rain.... So,after checking the fuse and the switch the motor has to go out... There it is:SEV marshal.... 5 srews later... One bearing is seized....with a little oil it works fine now... A simple fix....i like! Got some very heavy spare parts for the 203,too! Colected it with my bus....a 450km roadtrip...no problem for the Taunus Transit! 2 rear axles,1 front axle complete with steering rack,a fuel tank and a steering column.For FREE Checked the bronze gear on both axles... Both look good...only minor pitting on one side... They will work if i need a spare axle. Good times! Greet You have done well with all the spares. Your Transit is a champion

	Guten Tag! Nothing to report.....runs like a clock every day. Only the Bosch ignition coil gave up some weeks ago....Bosch,made in Brasil....this can't have a good end. Finished the head for my spare "Kongo" style engine....after only 2 years of delay.... A mate come over for a visit with his 51' Merc 170....the best looking,coolest benz i EVER saw! Coolest car i ever saw...and thats his daily! Overhere 98% of this 170's are restored to all new condition.... ...and boring too! Not this one! I like!!

	That is rather tasty. I like them a lot. And at least unrestored, but mechanically good, it can be driven.
