How much of a rebuild is a rebuild?

She is a 1994 G350TD
She smokes really bad so I figured that for 6K I can get a complete rebuild, new internals and all so why not.
It is top of the line, I think every option but Leather. It even has a Mercedes 6 cd changer that for 94 is something..
Not sure if it needs anything else really. Tires soon but other things for now.

Re: OK OK OK Here is a pic of the new toy.. Goes in tomorrow for motor rebuild..

Are you saying it is an original 1994 6-CD changer accessory for the G? I am wondering if it was something added later. Is the roof and hood faded or does it just look dirty? Was there ever a bullbar/brush guard? I see something mounted on the front bumper that looks like brackets/anchors for that. That is a great G350TD!

So I guess you decided to keep the Puch?

Brush bar brackets but no brush bar, is that taste or legislation or other reason?

Yep you still suck as i said before

I think that is salt on the roof and hood. He posted a picture a week or so ago about it before he got bought it. It looked nice and shinney. Im still out on the color but hey, MB is now going back to that. I see a CLK55 ever day that looks close to that.

I is salt from it being brought up.
Brush bar and bumper got munged thus why missing, well all be there new by spring.
It is going to a shop tomorrow, motor removed and sent to FL for rebuild and re installed. Will be a fine piece when done.
I wonder what one of these would be worth all new motered and all. I hope I am not to much over value when done...

from doing this stuff on other cars ive come to find out its not the amount of money you spend on parts, its the amount of money you get screwed out of by dishonest companys on labor charges.

I mean if the mechanic skips a hour or two each wheel on you rebuild and they charge $150-185 labor like most aftermarket placese do.. it can ad up in a hurry!

I don't know but considering the numbers of G350DTs in the USA you would probably have a virtual monopoly in that market!
