Yeah.. they've got nice lines. Always thought they were cool but ended up with BMW wagons. Although, a buddy and I co-own a really old 60's M-Benz Wagon. Its on the restoration/modification list.

Send me an email and I'll send you pics of the wheels.. they're straight with a few minor blemishes that were sanded out.

2 nights of 2-3 hours of sleep, drive from Boston to NY, set up a trade show booth, have to drive back to Boston because you forgot stuff, get 4 hours of sleep, start off for NY again at 4AM and 2 hours later, fall asleep.

All things considered, I'm very lucky. Just know when it's going rain.
Ok, I think I remember hearing of this.. I had not seen pics..You were lucky dude!! Get some sleep!
