Just curious who all is from the St. Louis area. I don't see many modded MB's around here. There's a black C with Madrus wheels near where I work, but that's about all I see.

I'm in the STL. 270 & Gravois. Shoot me a PM.

There's also a C55 guy that lives in Troy, IL. We need to get a group together. We can't have the Cali guys having all the fun.

MBAMGPWR

I'm down with that! Hopefully, we can have a few more chime in.

I am thinking of doing a little cruise of the River Road tomorrow, late morning. Maybe stop off in Grafton at the Mississippi Half Step for breakfast, or possibly head up a little further to Hardin to the Illinois River Dock for some great food. Stop off in a couple spots for pictures or something of the sort. Maybe meet in the parking lot of the Alton Casino?

Can't swing it tomorrow...PM sent.

PM returned.

Fine then- see if I care. I will just go by myself Actually- I'll most likely call up pops. Have him get his Vette out for a little playtime with me.

alumar

MBAMGPWR

i am up for a meeting time of 10:00am or any time after at the Alton Casino. i figure i can by up by 9:00, give it a quick spit-shine and be on my way.

normally i don't sleep near that late, except i worked a midnight shift at my second job last night (Anheuser-Busch) and i have yet to go to sleep. i got up at 5:30am on Friday for my regular job at the engineering firm, then worked a midnight and AB and have had too much i wanted to get done today in order to fit some sleep time in there. i use my regular job for savings and paying the bills and i use AB as play money. it's a good deal. i more or less work when i want and sign up for the shifts i want. only downside is the fact that i can only work weekends. ahh well- it's money in the bank.....and the occasional beer in my gut.

alumar

you in alton? atm it looks like just you and me?

bumpnzx3

i am actually about 10 minutes from alton in wood river. i guess it is just you and i. big group eh? if you don't want to go, that's ok. i am still going to get the car out and go for a drive.

alumar

Guys, no MBenz ownership here, but come show your cars at our car show; June 26 2010. Help spread some modded MB love here in the STL area.

Registration is 15 bucks if you pre-register, 20 at the gate, and all proceeds go to benifit the P.A.W. stoppers, a charity group dedicated to the care and training of German Shepard police dogs.
