I'll be there, probably alone. I'm trying desparately to get the 603 powered s123 on the road in time, but I'll say I'm bringing my 1984 300D DD just so I won't jinx it.

I don't think I will have Bodhi finished in time for this, realistically. Bit sad, had it at seven in a row. The 78 I haven't touched in ages and won't until after Bodhi is done. So ... looks like I will show up in the Jeep. It has some Mercedes hose clamps in it so I hope that counts? I could also bring my dad's Mercedes, but not sure as I'll be going straight to a concert afterward and I doubt he wants me driving it to that!

The 91 300TE is road trip ready sans A/C. I'll likely be riding solo since the rest of the family prefers air

29 days to go!!!

I can't believe this will be our NINTH year!! I'm looking forward to seeing our regular crowd and hope we'll get to meet some new people.

9th Annual Southeast PA Benzfest
Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11am until ?

We can start at 11am and go until whenever.

I'll do Burgers, Smoked Chicken Breast, Smoked Brats, Roasted Veggies, Quinoa Salad, and beverages including some home brew, soda, and water.

We'll have 5 categories of prizes again, and I believe there will also be some MB inspired art available.

I live about 1 mile from the Montgomery Mall to give you an idea of where I am. I'm between Allentown and Philadelphia. I'll give my address via PM to everyone that will be coming.

Let's start getting a head count so I can plan the food accordingly.

Any food or drink that you bring to add to our spread is appreciated!


Anyone that still needs the address, send me a PM and I'll get right back to you.

Just got confirmation that there will be live music thanks to New Jersey's own, "Donkey Punch" around 1pm. All the songs you wanna hear, none you dont!
Modern Rock from the 90's thru today!

Sweet! I think Lawson and I should be able to make it out for this. Should we bring the SDL, or the V10...

Live music? Sweet!

Awesome! It's been a while since I've seen you guys. Glad to hear the SDL is still on the road. Which car uses more fuel?

Hmm. Good question. On the highway I think they're about the same. Around town the MB does slightly better.
