Thanks Chad. This thread is by far overwhelming haha

[tbomachines]

Can add me to the list! Again I'm juggling things this year but I'll be able to stick around for more than 15 minutes. I'll be there for an earlier chunk.

Yeah, you really need a full half hour to forty-five minutes to get the full effect of it . . . .

I will be there with my 240D and possibly my wife and kids. The movers are coming to load up all of our stuff in Mississippi on Monday so we should be settled by the 18th. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm doing at internship near Selinsgrove so I MIGHT just have to come to this...

Only 4 weekends until the GTG!!!!!!

I'll update the list of attendees as soon as I finish compiling all the responses.

In the meantime, here's a cool photo of last year's event. One is untouched and one has a red line showing my property and green lines showing where the parking is.

4 weeks, there's that push I need to get my baby back on the road!

Very cool aerial photo's, where / how did you get them?

[Chad300tdt]

Google maps just happened to be updating the aerial satellite images that day. The street level view image is still several years old.

wow, 4 weeks. Coming down to the wire, lots of work before then if im bringing my own car, yikes!

[Chad300tdt]

I know! My wagon is currently apart in my garage getting a new head gasket. I think I'll be pushing it out for the gtg. I can't imagine getting it done sooner due to the tools I'll need to borrow/rent.

lol, for me its turbo, cooling system, fuel system, throttle, oiling, ect. Plus the fact that im not sure if the engine runs.

I wonder how many of us are in the same boat year after year after year?

Not a single one of these GTGs you host, has my car ever been actually running 2 weeks prior. For me, thats part of it, the drama of trying to get it done, followed by hundreds of miles on a not fully tested vehicle in one of the busiest parts of the country.

[Gretta's Keeper]

Gretta & I will be there.

We'll bring the W124 couch I made too.
Spare 300TE middle row seat, some pallets, ....
Presto Mercedes garage couch!
Hopefully Chad or someone will want the couch as I don't have a garage people hang out in. I don't need a garage, I just wondered if I could.

[Gretta's Keeper]

er... make that "I don't need a couch".
Everyone needs more garage! LOL -G

[TheDon]

That's pretty cool. I have a spare W124 sedan seat back. If I could only weld up a frame for it!(plus I already skinned the bottom portion)

[katchung]

Wow!

I'm not far from you at all. I'll be there...maybe with kids in tow.
