I never said Dougie was not nuts. Yeah, I know he has a thing for
that Deeeeetroit iron. But then he was into Brit cars too, Esp
Lotus. I like to think his tastes matured late. He ran his 201 like
crazy. Now he really likes his 126.
Same people who used to buy the Shovey Monte carlos with 6 feet of
tunnel between the radiator and the front of the engine, and think it
was a fine piece of Automotive engineering while I was lusting for a
300TD.
Our friend Doug Havlik loves those. He has one he's restoring. Calls
it (with a straight face) "front mid-engined" and says "it gives you
a tremendous feeling of confidence" when cornering.
This from a serial benz guy.
