Call me paranoid, but.... I'm taking a trip next week from Virginia to Michigan and back, and I'd like to take my '85 300D. I don't anticipate anything going wrong with the car along the way, but if it does, I'd like to know where to take it.

I will travelling by way of Washington, D.C., Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Chicago on the way up, and Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Lexington, KY, and Charleston, WV on the return (and all points in between).

If any of you would offer the names and numbers of reliable MB shops (dealers or
independents) in the vicinity of these places I'd be grateful. I've found a couple of good postings in the "Good MB Shops" forum but I'd like to fill in the cracks.

Thanks very much.
