Gents,
To those that have followed my thread on pagoda113.com regarding Bosch horn restoration, I did get some information sent to me today from Bosch--it is diagrams, descriptions, photos, line drawings, part numbers, etc. on these horns--all in German.
What I need is a volunteer(s) fluent in English and German; I'll forward these .jpg files (high-definition) to you for translation. It has to be off-line as the files are too big to post.
The translations will appear in my horn restoration manual. Please contact me with an email address and I'll forward these on to you.

Hello Michael,
I just bought a pair of excellent working and looking original W113 horns today. Unfortunately I had to pay $250.00 for them. The good news is they came attached to a very nice solid and running Mercedes 230 finback sedan!
I also got a bonus of an excellent automatic transmission (also correct for W113) in the same car!
Good donor cars are out there, you just need to watch for them!

Michael,
You might try this google site for translation:
http://www.google.com/language_tools
If there's a webpage, you can link it and it will translate. If not you, you can type it in yourself....potentially tedious, but helpful in a pinch.
It's about 80% accurate...let's face it that there are some idioms that a computer can never translate.
Good luck,
Chris

Our good friend Tom Collitt volunteered and it is done. Trnaslations will appear in my horn manual, if anyone is interested.
