Berlin calling...
Greetings from Berlin, Germany!
For 3 month now, I am the more-than-happy and prowd owner of a 63 SWC (Daytona Blue, numbers-matching) - a real beauty! I am looking forward to be part of this community and gain insight about this wonderful piece of American automobile history... ;-) Some minor things have to fixed, but I am looking forward to have this finished in a few days... :-)

Congrats brother!! And wow do I ever miss Berlin!! I was stationed in Berlin from 1990-1994 and it was hands-down, the absolute BEST assignment I've ever had.
Love the city and everything about Berlin.
I lived at Mcnair Barracks and then on UhlandStrasse. (Between Blissestrasse and FehrbelinerStr).
I hope I can come back one day!! Congrats on your "New to You" Vette

Berlin has changed a lot since then. Billions and billions of Euros have been pumped into the city - new buildings everywhere. I am sure, you would not recognize the city today... :-) If cou have the chance to visit Berlin again, jut let me know and I will show you around.

The last time I was stationed in Germany (2008) I took a trip back to Berlin and yes, you are correct. The city has changed dramatically. East Berlin is phenominal now while "West" Berlin gets bigger and bigger. A beautiful city with so much to offer. I really wished one day I would be able to visit or live there again. Such a magnificent city.
Will have to take you up on your offer and treat you a Curry mit pommes at the Imbiss right outside the KufurstenDamn U-Bahn (by Ka De We. I always ate there!! When I stopped by at the end of 2008, the woman who owned it was ecstatic to meet a genuine Berlin Brigade Soldier after so many years after Berlin closed down for Soldiers assigned there. I was luck to have spent 4 beautiful years in your city.
