Found this on Air-Society this morning, looks like they did a showcase under the old owners name

[bobbyjones]

i saw that today, i had to read it to see if them mentioned dreamstate, (turns out they did) it's a cool car, it's nice that it's still internet famous.

Go internet fame!

Moving into the new place tomorrow. A few days of settling in and I will finally be able to spend some time on the Benz. Hoping to have it back on the road end of April/beginning of May, but my spare time is all but gone between moving and training for the 200km Ride to Conquer Cancer in Toronto this June. The girlfriend an I also have a '57 Chevy Bel-Air on the way, and her show car is coming out of storage at the end of April. Shes re-doing the interior on it, I'm making hardlines for her management setup, then its going to her friends shop for a turbo install.

It never ends...

Well, It's back on the road, put about 200 miles on it this past weekend. When I first had it back together the transmission was slipping badly under load. Figured it was due to the semi-synthetic fluid I put in. I ended up draining the semi-synthetic fluid and re filled it with the cheapest ATF I could find and replaced a blown out bushing on the shift linkage at the transmission, and it's now shifting better than it ever has.

Anyways, some pictures! First wash of the year after getting it back together


Draining the transmission


Out on the highway

Mine and the girlfriends cars

glad you got the trans issue figured out.

questions: what psi you drive around at? and were do you get all your replacement parts from?

[aLaFleur]

This makes me want air for mine... you're an ass.

Stock ride height is about 85-90psi on the rear and 120 in the front, a nice low ride height is 60psi all around.

I buy alot of my stuff at the dealership and from mercedessource.com, bought some stuff from thebenzbin too and wasn't that impressed.

[D&W]

Never posted a picture of the stock ride height

I've been kinda curious how those would look on one of these.
