Lovely.  We live in a great part of the country for these cars.  I took mine out this weekend also.

Starchild,

Are you in Pittsburgh in the summers? I believe I've seen your car before and we've talked at PVGP. Or there are 2 silver 280SL running around Lantana.

Yes, I believe we have spoken at the PVGP and the SL has also been know to visit German Hill.  An odd coincidence, I just ran across your card today in the glove box of the car as I was doing some cleanup.

 Tired of looking at some of the grime under the hood and around the door hinges. Bit of degreaser purchased at the Drivers Seat. It  did wonders for some of the grime. Should of taken before and after pics.

Last two digits of your number is 41?
