To be a reliable car, she could not have kept the original 50 years, 1.9-liter four under the hood Potter, which has never been highly rated in the first place (balancing the two Solex carburetors double choke was tricky). "We were looking at different engines, says Dell. We even considered an LS7 (the famous Corvette V8 power). Then the Mercedes-Benz V12 bi-turbo was mentioned. "One of the cars with 6.0-liter that beauty is the SL 600.

Easier said than done.To take the place of newer metal bodywork of the 190 had to be widened by 6 inches, and another 8 inches were relaxed in the length, in five different locations along each side. Of course, things like the grille and bumpers are not the right size. And door handles seemed out of proportion. So replacements were cut from billet aluminum.

Making Braid Fabric Wreaths…Fun for Ma n' Me |

For as long as I can remember I have been making and gifting braided fabric wreaths. When my child was in the early years in grade school, he would enjoy helping stuff the fabric tubes and braiding the tubes for the wreath. Most of all, he enjoyed talking about the role he played in its creation!

For friends who celebrated Christmas there were wreaths made of Christmas scene patterns braided with a solid red or green. Friends who didn’t celebrate Christmas were happy to receive wreaths that were suitable for hanging year round.
