From Silt to Shine
Dream Build acquired, now time to put the effort in to make that dream come true. This Mercedes 190E Was purchased for $500 in Yorktown, VA. 87k OEM miles, Only issue is the fuel system. Revamping fuel system with AN and fuel cell.
The 190e needs a big paint job, majority has been sanded, and primed, finishing up last side
I'm thinking about going aftermarket LED DRL in the rear for the retrofit look
Rear has been gutted to make room for roll cage and fuel system
Sneak peek of the fuel cell sitting in the car (still need fastener)
This is the mess we are dealing with. Ke-Jetronic system retrofit with AN6 & FPR. This should be easy (sarcasm)
Gunmetal Gray (paint is easier to scrape off window that to tape them up)
It didn't come out the way I wanted to, pretty bad paint job but hey, beginner's charm
Fuel Parts have arrived, we will be using 6an supply/return lines. Aiming for 90psi system pressure.
This will be the mounting point for the fuel system (originally under the car). This makes it so the return line only needs to be one foot, also allows for fire suppression system to be simpler.
