Sounds like fun Steve. We will be in Portland on May 2nd for a Grand Daughters 5th BD party. Call the officials to hold off the show till we get there.

Sounds good, I have quite a few parts (and parts cars) also, so maybe we can do some swaps, PM me later if you do plan to head north in July.

Two of my friends back home should be going in their W123's. One will either have his silver blue 300cd or his ivory 240d. The other will be in his astral 300d.

I'll keep an eye out for them, I'm not officially involved, just saw the notice in the paper and thought I'd come into town and check out the cars, and see if there were 123s around.

Who do you deck for? I was a DH/cook for ten years in the Bay Area.

I'm a line cook back home at a restaurant in Bellevue, been there for coming up on 3 years.

I did a bit of deckhand work on a private 100ft yacht on lake union, I'm currently at cal maritime trying to get my 3rd mates.
