Thanks for this post!!

I haven't been on these boards in a while... but I actually found out about the whole magazine thing only today. Pretty cool but a bit bittersweet since I no longer have the car

Also good find on the craigslist ad... lol

Eric!

Keep your build thread & grandmighty intact.

Also, make it to the next sevenstock. I'd like to buy the guy who changed my mind about Montego Blue a beer.

Your car was one of the few to have serious swagger, but it doesn't carry over to the new owner (auto swagger us built, not bought)

You need to stop slacking and get your FD in the mag. It should have a whole issue dedicated to it...

I saw this too, GORGEOUS! I always thought MB wouldn't look good on aftermarket body parts but it SO does on yours Eric.

It's crazy but 3 of the new mags have FDs in them. DSport and Super Street too, as Alex and Gene already know haha.

What? You're driving from the Batcave to Cali for Sevenstock? If it happens, please come through Phoenix enroute and cruise out with our caravan. We usually have between 20 and 30 cars in our rolling beehive!!

Gordon
Understood Gordon. That certainly makes sense. Looking forward to meeting you there! Another thing you might want to consider is flying into and out of Phoenix. I'm sure we could secure a co-pilot seat if you want to join the caravan

I hate MB cars but the very few who have immaculate paint are always impressive. A pristine MB car is hard to beat. I tip my hat to you sir.
