Hello Uwe,
South Africa is where the hell I am! We have for a very a long time in South Africa been manufacturing AND assembling MB's and exporting them from here. True, many of the parts came from Germany but there was also a certain degree of local manufacture - normally the bigger heavier body parts etc.
Thanks for the advice on the spacers.
On the noise, everything seems sound and good - the car was gone over very thoroughly by a german workshop here specialising in restoration and repair of classic Mercedes with a good reputation so I expect nothing that compromises safety - just a bit of irritation factor but I do appreciate the advice and concern.
I'm going to think about those knobs. Somewhere a plan will be made!
Grussen,

Clem

...there is a slight possibility that you order parts in germany, and I had some parts deliviered this spring from VW RSA/Capetown to repair my '84 T3 Station Wagon... ! And only because Volkswagen could not supply properly here in it's Homeyard.
The world became small !
