Eagle at Work
« on: June 30, 2012, 02:05:30 PM »
I guess my Eagle isn't working...but it is at work with me. I snapped this shot with Instagram on my iPhone of my car in front of my work. It is probably the only one that spends most of its time at a Mercedes-Benz dealership  ;D  I have another hubcap I need to put on...I wasn't paying attention one day and didn't realize my brake was rubbing....well, it actually melted the entire inside of my wheelcover. Don't drive on rubbing brakes!!! (I suppose by now you can tell that my title here is not 'technician')

My list of my cars/toys (or toys at my disposal!)

1985 AMC Eagle Sportwagon
2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 4Matic
1993 Mercedes-Benz 500SL
2016 Triumph Bonneville
 1962 Cruisers Inc Mahogany Outboard

I like to to tell people my Eagle is like a Ferrari. It's quirky, tempermental, border-line exotic, and something you don't see everyday.  See? Makes perfect sense....

Oh yes. It is usually parked FAR away. I was locking up this day though so I had it running in front of the building. Beautiful day prompts for a photo opp.   :eagle:

I don't see a problem parking near M B's.   By the looks of my place, you would think it was a Mercedes Benz dealership! (I am an M B guy).  My Eagle is parked near at least 2 M B's every day!   I only have 4 M B's now, but had 6 around here at one time.

Nice photo. It has kind of a "vintage" look to it.

If that's Akron, Ohio we're almost neighbors. I'm in Medina.
