Scott, of Scottcorvette fame has made a kind donation to the Groups treasure chest, for use by our European Full Members, of another set of hubcap stencils once he has completed his own hub caps.

There are two types both for the dog dish type smaller hubcap of the 230SL and the early 250SL and a second set for late 250SL the 280SL single pressed hub caps.

This now means that we have three sets available around the world with another set for our Americas Full Members and another set for our Australasian Full members use.

The Group rules for using the stencils are as follows:

a,    that they will only be available to Full Members who have paid to be Full Members and thus given Admin full address details. (together with Honorary Members) and

b,    after use you will be responsible for forwarding them to the next person on the list within your geographical area.

I understand that currently Mark Evans has the Australasian set that will come to me next,

The US stencils are currently with cstinchi and will go to Johnsnr next and the UK ones are with Scottcorvette and will go to who ever advises they would like them after Scott.

Please add in here at this point if you are interested in going on the list. (Mark Evans had a list at one point so you may already be in line but please advise and Mark and I will sort out the order.) The Board will look at how we manage keeping track for future and advise shortly.

I believe Scottcorvett  was the last with the stencils in UK. Jose, have you gone to Scott and if so have you finished with the stencil?

For our US members, StevenF, I believe Johnsnr had them last.  You will need to contact him to get him to forward to you at his expense.  From there you will need to forward them to Beachwear after you have done your painting.

Please let me know how you go.

I haven't got it. Meanwhile, I have masked with tape and painted with spray can.

I still haven't done my caps and I can't see it happening in the foreseeable future so whoever wants this stencil next pm me your adress and I'll get it sent off to you.

Gary can you give Mark Evans email so I can go on the list for the 280sl stencil re hub caps. I should be ready for hubcaps next month as my 280sl is currently getting prepped for painting now. Also would love to purchase that firewall from you that you have kept aside for me.

Thank you again

Jimmy,

I believe I have the stencil, or does Mark have it?  Can bring the firewall pad down next time.

Hi Philip,


I have the Australian one.  PM me with your address and I will send it to you.  Let me know if you are doing the small or large hub caps.

Hi Garry
Thanks for your prompt response to my first post - ignore the second, which crossed. Mine are the later 'full face' hubcaps, as supplied with all 280SL's. Forgive my ignorance, but how do I PM my address to you - ie how does private mail work via the website?
Cheers

Do we know the current whereabouts of the European 280 hub stencil set?

I would like to put my name down for the loan of it.

Many thanks in advance, Martin

Dear Gents,

I would like to make use of the hubcap stencil  located in the region Europe.
Can the person in possession of the stencil make himself known?

Looking forward to his response,  kind regards
