I own MB Classic Sports Car in Cincinnati, Ohio. We are a service and restoration shop which specializes in vintage Ferrari, Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz automobiles.

I founded the company in 2003 after finishing b-school. Rather than go into banking, my original intent, I decided to take a leap of faith and pursue my lifelong passion and haven't looked back since.

Stop by and say hi and to enjoy a pipe and some wonderful cars if you're ever in the Cincinnati area!

cheers

Cool, got a web site? I am looking for a rag top anything at a decent price.

We do have a website although it's presently being redone. Here's what we have in inventory at present:

-1947 Jaguar 3.5 litre DHC
-1959 Mercedes-Benz 190SL
-1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL
-1970 Porsche 911T coupe
-1974 Citroen D Super 5 (I personally imported this car from England, one of six in the country)
-1978 Daimler DS420
-1980 Ferrari 308GTB
-1981 Ferrari 308 GTS/i
-1983 Ferrari 308GTB Quattrovalvole
-1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

You are welcome to ring me on (513) 519-7302 if any of these sound enticing. Alternatively, if you have something particular in mind, we can usually dig it up!

I am hopeful our website will be back up and running within the next few days...

Meanwhile, here's a shot of the workshop with a few of the steeds abound. We have two other buildings chock full!

Cheers,
Aaron

Coming late to this thread. Can't believe but it looks like I am the only Aggie!!

I have worked in agriculture for a little over 30 years, originally as the Canadian agronomist for a large fertilizer distributor, then moved to USA as president of a small fertilizer manufacturing company. I am now the USA business manager for a precision agriculture company, we provide computer software and consulting services that provide prescriptions for optimum amounts of seed, fertilizer, pesticides and other products used in farming. All based on maps we generate from satellites. High-tech farming.

I am the manager of a tribology laboratory focusing on aeronautical components. I have been in this field since 1997. It has led me around the world at times, and provides for just enough travel to tame my, now on the decline, wander lust.
