::: Wishlist: Vintage Mercedes ::: http://thisisluster.com/2011/02/04/wishlist-vintage-mercedes/ http://thisisluster.com/2011/02/04/wishlist-vintage-mercedes/#comments Fri, 04 Feb 2011 08:00:32 +0000 Luster http://thisisluster.com/?p=967533918

It’s the weekend, friends! I’m excited to hang out with my hottie sister-in-law on Friday night, welcome my husband home from London {please don’t snow on Saturday night} and make Valentines at Spacecraft on Sunday with Remy & Alexa. In the meantime, I am daydreaming about a vintage Mercedes that would be perfect for a weekend drive. In fact, I have been for the last 8 years or so. Not in this weather of course, but summers by the shore…that sounds like a plan. Even better though – have you heard about  converting Mercedes diesel models from the late 70′s onward so that they can run off of vegetable oil? How often do classic style and sustainability align like that? Now, if only I can find the kind of seller who has a mint convertible or coupe in a California {rust free} garage and would like to sell it to a sweet gal like me for a song.

Happy weekend!
