President Waldo Scribante

Waldo’s first memory is of him in his father’s 1960 219 Ponton, towing a caravan over the Prince Alfred pass in the Southern Cape. As a teenager, his father owned a W116 280SE and an R107 450SL, and he became passionate about theMercedes-Benz star. He bought his first classic car in 1996, a W112 300SEL Fintail. Andthe rest is history! His collection of Mercedes-Benz vehicles can be seen in his SCRIBSBENZeum. He is supported by his wife René, also a passionate member of the club, enthusiast and veteran driver of their 1913 8/20 PS Benz Tourer.

National Treasurer Johan Kemp

I enjoy the the good times of socialising with friends I have made 
all over the country. 
 
Affiliations to other clubs:  None at the moment – unlikely but not impossible. 
 
Favourite vehicle in own collection:  An unfair question, usually the one I am driving at the time of the question, but if I have to pick one, it would be my 1952 W191 170DS. I have a passion for the W123, W124 and W126.  
 
You get a normal Mercedes-Benz and then you get a W123.
