Problem is that foam breaks down over time... right?

That's why I used the waterresistant version of the foam. Did some tests on it and def sticks around a lot longer than te regular one. I had some sealings done with this stuff 10 years back and it still sits as it should, same size. So it's a choice......Hopefully the foam is still affordable in let's say 10 years....?!

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Since I am new here thought I'd say "howdy", show off my car and see if any of y'all want to do the same. My 83 280SL was a one-owner purchased from a retired airline pilot in Scottsdale, AZ. He was a preventive maintenance freak who kept the car in beautiful condition. I was looking for this...

  2. The "I drove the 107 today!" thread.

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class

  3. R/C107 Fuse Chart Compendium

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Change your fuses! Originals are aluminum and they tend to corrode and cause bad connections. Brass or copper tipped fuses are available from many sources. Many of us have been frustrated looking for a Fuse Layout chart for our 107s. There are some scattered through the forum. This is an...

  6. ‘85 380SL - High idle, lost brake pressure, strange smell

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Hello everyone, I’ve had a very strange issue pop up after my last drive. Everything was going well until I got a couple of blocks from home and my brake pedal went to the floor, my idle surged, and there was a strange burning smell coming from the motor (almost like electrical burning). I’ve...
