The 2008 Northwest MB shop get together will be Aug 9th and 10th in the Seattle area. The 9th we will be having a drive, and possibly tech session and BBQ (feel free to suggest locations, topics and destinations). The 10th we will be descending on the Seattle MBCA chapter’s annual Show and Shine with our cloud of diesel fumes.

It looks like you need to pre-register before August 3rd for lunch or entering your car in the MBCA show.
Tech Sessions for the MB Shop meet are as follows:
Rust: What to Look for and How to Kill it
61X Tune up
Front End Rebuild Overview (W123 and similar models)
Diesel Performance Tuning
Seat/Interior Refurbishing
If somebody with some 60X wants to volunteer to teach a tech session or two that would be great.
