A MiniQ sounds like a great idea. We should get together to plan something.

Make sure to let me know when you?re going to be in the neighborhood.  I need 
to see Manfred as well, so maybe we could make it a MiniQ.

I am looking for a M116 engine and trans.  A 380SEL would be ideal.  a 420SEL 
would be even better.   (Gen II 126, more HP)   I think I could make the M117 
from a 500SEL or a 560SEL work.  The reason I am looking for the long body is 
because I think I could take one of my spare OM603 engines and put in in an SEL 
to make a SDL so that I could scrap the rustbucket SDL.  Sorta kill 2 birds 
with one SEL.  I think I can get a SEL for !500 or so.  Otherwise, I have to 
spend probably $1500 for an M116, and probably that much again for a better SDL 
or 300D.

I liked this ol boy, Frank talking to him on the phone.  If you go see him, I 
think you might like him too.  If he comes around on the SEL, ok, and if not 
I'll find another, hopefully closer to South MS/AL/LA.  My guess is that i'll 
have to find another.

I am headed south Dec 20.

I think I will go N around March 1 to finish house projects and get it up for 
sale.  If all goes well, Mar 15 until the house sells or about June 20, we'll 
be in the south  again.  #1 daughter getting married Jun 17.

Sometime around Jan 5 I need to see Manfred and pickup the BMW.  FL MiniQ....  Maybe we 
can get Gerry or go visit him.   I hope he's ok.  His message about being "off" 
for a while concerns me.
