4 more days!!!

Pierre is going to bring 10 cars with him...all of them his customers.

No word yet from MBCA but at least one will be comimg to spread the word of MBCA... I'd like some new members in the central fl chapter that would like to do something other than go and eat or look at boring historical things...

two more days guys and gals!

Does anyone require special foods or drink? Coke was on sale so thats what you're all getting!


All day saturday will be dedicated to washing, detailing, and adjusting my W123 for sunday. I always go overboard. I even bought some scratch X to buff my paint with since it has some oxidation on the paint that remains on the car.

Paint? Who needs paint?! I'm going to try and make it out with the Roadster, weather permitting. Got an XM cassette adapter so I have my iPod to listen to instead my 15 year old tapes from high school.

The Roadster is currently shod in 16" CLK's, "slightly" curbed. The car handles MUCH better now, making me regret selling you my Vogtlands...but the money goes to the D now.

I won't have time to detail the car as I'll be here all day Saturday with (possibly) the SS or the wagon: http://www.daytonabeachcarshows.com/
I may have time for a little "Krylon touch" before coming up Sunday to cover the nasty primer & fresh sanding where some surface rust appeared.

I hope for you and Elke to be there... Everyone that has contacted me loved her pictures she took at the last show.


I haven't installed the Vogtlands yet as I am waiting for my rebate check or w/e it is.

The D needs to be running.. is.. bad ass.



the primer on the car... is just that.. meant to be on for maybe a day before painting. The dude should have used a self etching primer so it bonded with the metal



When do you want to do the roller job on the roadster? I've got the sunroof panel to practice on. I just need to get around to doing it.
