If you can keep a secret ......yes, I took it with my iphone.

...at least I wasn't steering with my knees whilst taking video of myself doing 100mph and overtaking..........I think that was a video briefly posted by another brave member (which I thoroughly enjoyed watching)

Brad,
The car looks great but you will get some negative comment from some quarters if you do not paint the white panel behind the grille black.

Brad,
Just take the grill off and hand paint the panel black, MB did it that way in production.  Looks great even so.

Nice photo Larry, it will find a spot on my garage wall :) thanks for sharing.

Now someone start a summer thread :) after all it is July 5th time to get out to those coffee meets or car shows .... Come to think of it I w I'll start that thread I just returned from a Canadian MB car show In Hidelberg, Ontario (no not the one in Germany, the area has a lot of German names, before WWII there was even a Berlin near by, renamed Kitchener now) near Waterloo, Ontario. First I will have to upload some photos from my iPhone to my mainframe and optimize the sizes a bit :)
