NICE!! I love that Manilla Beige 300D. I just sold one identical except I didn't have 15" bunt wheels, mine were 14". I really liked the car, the guy I sold it to says it's the best W123 he's ever had - - and he's had a bunch.

Nice gathering of Smarts. Did the purists scoff at the Smarts? at least the 451's?

That was a nice 123 although I did notice some mismatched paint. The interior was immaculate. I think it belongs to a local MBCA member. The W123s and W124s were some of the toughest Benzes made.

No scoffing that I was aware of. Many of the regular Benz owners came over to admire the smarts.

I know of one absolutely perfect Manila Beige (yellow) 300D that a MBCA member has but I don't think he had any mismatched paint (looks like a door in the pic). His car was absolutely beautiful, I think it was originally owned by his grandmother and he inherited it.

I committed a MB crime right after I sold my car, I converted it to WVO for the new owner. It was a quality job though.

Rats! I live right around the corner and was all set to go. Then came this family obligation.

The pics look great. Will it be a yearly event (I hope)?

Shame on you. For that, drive three time around the block in your smart.

Pabille: Don't worry, we'll have more events coming up. Any suggestions?
