MG TD TF 1500 - Parts supplier?
| Parts supplier? I know this is not about MG’s but a friend has offered me a 1979 Mercedes Benz 450 SL, virtually for free. I know there are a lot of savvy folks that post here, my question are there parts suppliers out there that sell Mercedes Benz’s part similar to Moss. I’m sure there are just don’t know how to identify them. It would help me to have some recommendations. Thanks John |

| I had a friend face a similar temptation, a while back. I told him to be very carefull-they are very expensive to maintain and are worth very little on the market...sort of like adopting a pet for free and then paying a lifetime of vet expenses! |

| Thanks Dallas I went to both, looks like what I wanted. A little harder to navigate than our BBS. Steve I naturally looked at eBay for cost comparisons one 1979 for sale the guy put $8000 in work and parts, then had to sell it because he was broke. It either did not sell or sold for less than he had in parts. Thanks for the warning. John |
