You will look back in amazement when the time comes. I didn't believe it
when I heard it at your age, but time really does increasingly compress the
older you get. At 56, a year goes by in what used to seem to be a month. I
can't wait to get to be Wilton's age!

The step-daughter who came into my life at age 8 just yesterday is now a 22
year old co-worker in my office. Amazing and a bit scary.

Installing new clutch/flywheel using the GWagen 23cm clutch
Installing 26mm TD front sway bar (the 15mm was *that* good).
Installing a new rear diff and one new axle(my old one is "chunky").
Diagnosing doorlock vac issues and putting my euro lock pegs in.

And of course the obligatory car wash.

[MBZ] Short list of things I am doing on my w123 this 32nd birthday weekend.

I believe we will have a large number of good quality pictures for all 
of these, I will post those when I get 'em.


Here is my recent, unverified 0-60 on B100 from the pump (turn down your 
sound ) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nREKAqKt1E . This was under 
11s with a slipping clutch on a fairly flat road crossing the city dump, 
I can't wait to see what it is on D2 after a new clutch.
