500SL R129
« on: September 01, 2020, 13:02:48 »
Friend of mine just bought a 2000 R129 500SL which will need some resto work. Does anybody know of a source for an English language parts list and a source for parts other than MB dealers?

Tell him to sign up with this group and then ask where he can get a parts list:

Thanks. Will forward the info. Just found out that one of the parts sources for my SL and Porsche (Pelican Parts) also deals in R129 stuff
