It's my "new" project car and its definitely a new learning experience. It was a small meet, just the four of us, but still a great time as usual!

Is this the location of the parking lot we were at before in china town right by the restaurant? We should start putting a tentative schedule together to get feedback from participants...

I will be checking the knobs first on the Benz.
 
Hahaha, we were just talking about them knobs at the meet.

That is the address to the Phoenix Restaurant (The one on the second floor overlooking Archer Ave.)
This is the restaurant that we had Dim Sum during our Jun meet. http://caichicago.com/

Justin is coming down from Milwaukee for having his sub-frame slotted for the SPC Performance camber bolt kit install at my place. Anyone itching for a little meet is welcome to swing by. Let's say we start around 9:30 - 10:00 on Sunday Aug 4th.

Speaking of that spc kit: I started out with a dremel and after destroying a few filing/sanding bits, eventually found a round hand held metal file to be WAY more effective.
 
I use a pneumatic angle die grinder with a 3/8 grinding bit to speed thing up a bit. :wink: Tried the a round hand file and it takes too long.

Yep, Justin front coilover has the "Coil-bind" syndrome!

Thanks guys, the project is coming along really nicely, even since the meet. I think I should start my own restoration thread on IS now. I don't even post on the MB forums, lol! :eatsleepis:

Wonder, could Justin essentially get a replacement from Kido?

Well, the warranty for the Coilovers is 12-month. No free replace that's for sure. We can always get a replace from Kido, but will be out our pocket. Planed to take it apart, clean and grease it and go from there.
