Atlanta Stammtisch?

I will be in Atlanta next week for a week long medical conference March 22-28. Maybe we could put a small group together to check out some of the SE G-class members and put faces to names. Weekday evening preferred.

RE: Atlanta Stammtisch?

Wish I could make it over there but I'm 150 miles away so a weekday is out of question for me.

I bet you can find Inkblotz cruising midtown ATL in his diesel just about any night of the week.

Awesome, bring the wife along.

It is looking like Monday the 23rd is going to work best for a number of people. After 5:30 would be preferable if that works for others. I will be midtown between GT and Piedmont Park, so maybe at Max Lagers downtown or another mellow brew pub somewhere. Please make suggestions if you know of a good venue, especially one with a parking lot for vehicle viewing.

Re: Atlanta Stammtisch?

Well, we had some good times, good conversations between old friends and new. Great to meet Chris and the other members of the old crew Heinz and Mark. Both of whom I have been on adventure with before in Death Valley. Chris has a big project going with his 230GE, I wish him luck sounds like a lot of work, but it will be worth the effort in the end. Cheers to Mark and the Green Turtle. It is looking sweet, the new air routing will make this thing a rocket, can't wait to get that used fender in the mail and off to you. Nice job on the rear G sliding windows, the nice seats, and the bomb proof roof rack. Oh yeah the 603a conversion looks stock too :-). Got some more stories out of Heinz from the good old days at MBZ and the G-class. Too bad his 1999 G500 did not make the trip, maybe next time. Wow, that man is THE MAN, all things G since the beginning. Tall too. Thanks for the extra late night round of beers, ha ha.

All in all a good night out, we had one G show up, and it represented fo sho.
Here are a couple pics:

Oh yeah, here's the money shot.
BTW, those little gold and silver G pins are not photo shopped in.

Don't worry, I had an extra one (or two) for you.
