    That's My Old Merc. Sold it to Pete last year. Breaks my heart everytime I see a picture of it. Tell Pete Mike said Hello. He was going to send a magazine article that was done in the U.K. on the Merc. Haven't gotten it yet.

    Mercmaniac - that thing is sweet. I'll look through my back issues & see if I can find any mag articles - if there was one, I don't recall it, but I've seen the car several times in the flesh, so I may have skipped right over it in a mag. Very nice!

    I would think that car has to be at the top of the list of cars that will get you laid.

    i talked to a hot girl on the net and showed here a picture of the stardust, and she just laughed and asked if you really could ride in a car like that and that she wanted an bmw, with that said, girls who DO NOT get hots for cars like that how hot and good looking they may be arent worth it anyhow hehehe

    just a thought, wouldnt it be easier to do that first then chop the top? seems like more work to do that afterwards

    Shows how much I know about women, but a hotty on the net? right. I am sure hottys need to be on the net to get attention, probably some heifer that sent you a picture of a model.lol
    Now I need to go buy a beemer, get a $50 dollar haicut and one of those expensive leather jackets that look already worn out, THEN I can score? I'd still take my chances with the Merc. But then I don't remember any car every being instermental in getting me anywhere. Now the old Milwakee vibrator was a different story.
