Dear Fred and Elizabeth,
It is great to hear from you. I am excited to know you will be here in Oklahoma City next week.
Please let us know how would you like us to assist you. We will be more than happy to arrange accommodations, repair/service of your 220S at the local Mercedes dealership and anything else that you might need. If you can let me know of your possible itinerary
we can arrange anything you want ahead of time and make your stay here comfortable.
One thing is for sure we are quite cold this week and beginning of the next week, may get a light snow here in OKC area over the weekend.
Best regards,
Masood
Dear Elizabeth and Fred,
we just want to let you know, that we (my boyfriend Jens and I) have seen you both in your great car a few times in the different National Parks in September 2014. In Arches National Park we took a picture of your Mercedes with this website on it – great idea!
We hope, you are still in time and have a lot of fun on your awesome trip – we definitely had!
Best regards from Germany, marry Christmas and a great start in 2015
Jens & Katja
Dear Katja, many thanks for your supportive message; much appreciated. All the very best wishes to you and Jens for a great 2015! Best regards, Elisabeth and Fred.
I just read the article about your epic endeavor in “The Star” magazine. I do hope that you make it to British Columbia, Canada to tour our wonderful scenic landscape. Your story reminds me of another German car that made the journey around the world 3 times. Paul Loofs drove his 1958 VW Beetle all over the globe. There is a documentary on it as well called “The story of VIN 903847”. If I remember correctly he started from BC.
The Beetle is still running today as well with it’s new owner in Quebec.
Best of luck, and I can’t wait to read about your journey.
Hi David, thanks for your message, much appreciated. We are planning to be in BC early July 2015. Maybe we can catch up. Could you please send us an email at Mercedes@ClassicStrider.com with your address? Best regards, Elisabeth and Fred.
Hello Fred and Elizabeth,
Will you be coming to Nova Scotia here on the East Coast. If so, let me know and I’m
sure we can get together. All the best on your travels during your retirement.
Cheers,
John C.
Congratulations for your travel experience!!!

Looks fantastic – and I feel very much more normal, knowing you two are doing something far more extensive and daring…. Those old ladies keep going! Very best with your travels!
Dear Fred And Elisabeth, last night I heard you were in El Salvador. Welcome! I told my 88 year old aunt about the two of you. She and her husband traveled to Europe in 1957, purchased a Mercedes Benz 219S and toured all over Europe. My uncle has since passed away but my aunt and her family still have the car. It’s in storage and needs a lot of tlc. One day it might come back to its old glory. You have definitely inspired many people with your journey.

To Elisabeth and Fred.
We were at the same camping in Molde-Norway. (Kviltorp Camping). I spoke to Elisabeth and she told me that there was some problem with the car and Fred was away for fixing it. I have also been reading about You in the lokal newspaper. My english is not so good, but I will be glad to hear from Yuor traveling around the World.
I se that the page abowe are in Norwegian, can I just Write in Norwegian?
