Tonight is the big night. If you have DirectTV tonight at 10pm est on channel 214 check out the first episode of #rallynorthamerica from 2019 where we raise about $225k for camp sunshine. It’s also streaming on the Lucas Oil TV app (look under recently added) and anywhere you get Mavtv. You see my black and yellow E63 wagon a little in this episode but we had a camera man with us toward the end on the drag racing day.

Now that we’re out of CA… We were supposed to run our 1984 300CD #ProjectDirtyBertha in the 40th anniversary of the cannonball but it’s transmission had other ideas. So we loaded the E63 Wagon full of tools with the plan to help other teams on the run from NYC to LA. We helped a few teams but all before the crossing. As the sun came up on the second day I realized we could get a pretty good time so we picked up the pace and arrived at The Portofino in 33 hours and 2 minutes. What a way to see the country with a great group of people. #cannonball #c2cexpress #mercedes #e63amg #e63wagon #e63 #e63samg #e63swagon #e63s #amg

For those that knew what #ProjectDirtyBertha was being built for, her transmission lost 2nd and 3rd gear 45 miles into the trip to NYC. I tried to buy a parts car that day for a swap but ran out of time to make the start line so the E63 Wagon stepped in. All went well and we are currently hanging out in Los Angeles for a few days. #e63amg #e63wagon #e63 #e63swagon #e63s

If you’re going to spend the evening with Dirty Bertha… I recommend long sleeves and a ski mask. Thanks to help last weekend from my brother @tukes23 and dad every ball joint, bearing and rubber component in the steering, driveline and suspension has been replaced along with an all new upgraded braking system. Should drive like a new 40 year old car… #mercedes #w123 #300CD #ProjectDirtyBertha

We shall call this one organ donor… Taller ratio diff, higher stall torque converter, and various smaller parts going to #ProjectDirtyBertha. OM617A turbo diesel will find a home in one of my unimogs. If the body is lucky it will be motor swapped and sacrificed to lemons racing. #w123 #mercedes #om617a #300CD #300D
