Hello all!

It's been quite a while since I have posted anything. Does anyone know of a replica Mercedes DIII or BMW IIIa? Dan-San, how's your friend coming along with his efforts to replicate the Mercedes motors??

I spoke to my young friend thtwo days ago. In our conversation he mentioned he was very dissapointed in the lack of response to his inqueries on trying to find a manufacturer. He has not had one resonse. He is planning a trip t this country on a another matter this summer. He is going to see what he can accomplish. He is distressed over the lack of any response.
Blue skies,
Dan-San

Dan-San,

thanks for the update. I am sorry to hear that your friend, still nameless to us all, hasn't had any luck finding manufacturers abroad. Please keep us posted. Any one else out there have any news or ideas??
