Does anyone here live in or around Ft. Wayne, IN? At least within 150 miles?

Well, Tim, Evansville is pretty far away.....

I will probably be up this fall for Thanksgiving, though, will keep you posted.

Go Hoosiers!

I'll add another member from Bloomington. Feel strange posting this to the vintage forum... Although I do continue to pine for a 50's 220s with sunroof... does that count?

Cheers.

Hey, Andrew, in this IU city, not that hard to miss each other on the roads. If you see a silver 560SEL with a silver three point stars plate on, that's me. Sometimes I drive the black W140 coupe too. So far it seems like the only one in town. And I noticed there are quite a bit of Benzos in town too. Also, I take my cars to QIS for services, how about you?

Hi David. Small world (internet?). Yes, I think I have perhaps seen your 560sel in the east side movie parking lot? Could be, although I have never seen a w140 coupe around town. Geez... my lowly w201 pales in comparison!

I have taken my car to Jorn since I got it almost a year ago. He's a top-notch guy, although sometimes I think I'm solely providing his daughter's college fund. Hopefully I will not have to see him as often anymore, as I recently got a place with a garage.

Be sure to honk if you see an ice blue 190!

College funs, LOL.

But he is still cheaper than the dealer in Indy. PLus he and I both have a W126, we kind of see what wrong with each other car and then do something to prevent it from happening to each's. So where do you take your car to now if you don't mind I ask, I won't tell Jorn.

Just make sure I don't honk at the wrong car. LOL there are quite a few MB in town.

I still take my car to QIS, I just try to do more of the "peripheral" work myself. And you are right, it beats the h@ll out of the dealer.

cheers.
