I am in the last stages of restoring a '85 500SEC.  Now, I am focusing on
the interior.  The door panels (front and rear) are in very good shape.
However leather on the front and back seats needs to be replaced as well as
the headliner.  Who has had the covers replaced and what are, if any, are
the issues?  Also, who is the best supplier of the leather covers?  You can
contact me directly at whgreene at columbus.rr.com.  By the way, the car is in
Charlotte, NC.

Geez, it has been 4 yrs???? I remember when you first jumped on this list
before graduating high school!

Some serious congratulations on getting into law school, especially into
W&M, best of luck to you. (see, I can be nice, not once did I make a comment
about having another lawyer in the world....!)

take care,

Thanks. It came down between here and some other schools, but W&M gave me a
nice little fellowship offer so I took it. I'm glad they did because I think
I like it here a lot more than I would have liked it at those other schools.

My 560 SEC is an 89 with 66,000 miles on it.  I've enjoyed the 1st gear
start kit for several years now.  The other day my transmission started
shifting down to second gear all on its own.  It happened at speeds of
around 45 to 50.  Then it would refuse to shift back to 3rd.  If I came to a
complete stop and started driving again it would go through the gears and
then shift down to 2nd again.
   
  Any suggestions??  Do you think it is electric or a vacuum problem?  Might
it be related to the 1st gear start module?
   
  Any help would be appreciated.
