    Car manufacturers don't build to last any longer, they build with a failure date and this includes Mercedes. This 55 year old Mercedes in many ways is better than anything being built in the last 30 years with a few exceptions.

      Simply mechanics and build like a tank

      No doubt. They don’t have to design a part that fails after certain mileage all they need to do is to program the HCU that runs the car.

    Man! I love how calmly you detail cars. Seems like there’s no deadline or need to rush. It’s relaxing to watch and the results are just wow!

    Mercedes build quality can surely withstand all manner of natural elements. This is a testimony to that... A 55yr old car in pristine condition!

    I can only say wow!! A 55 year old car in such a pristine condition!! Amazing!!

    A real beauty. These older Mercedes' are definitely worth saving.

    Wow the fact that the difference was seeable on silver/grey without sun or artificial lighting goes to show the difference! Great job

    Still a beautiful vehicle IMHO and good to see one that has not been eater up by rust as so many have been. Nice work.

      Funny, I was never a fan of that style but now find I appreciate it far more. That color is killer on it.

  • @geofffikar3417
    @geofffikar3417 2 года назад +35

    Wonderful to see one of them brought back. It's a shame Mercedes chooses
    not to build them with that quality any longer. Well done!

    • @ronalddean3630
      @ronalddean3630 4 месяца назад

      It is because they are now building to a cost rather than a high standard. If someone gifted a new one to me, I would keep it long enough to sell it to someone who doesn't have a clue what a real Mercedes Benz is, and buy another classic.

    Hey bud...hope you good...i have to say...when you busy with modern day cars and newer generations your work is always impecable....but...when it comes to older cars and older generation classics its like the true artist in you comes out...i salute for that and the work you doing, your videos and passion for detailing inspires me beyond my limits and made me use and love the products you are using, its the only products in my detailing arsenal...keep it up buddy.

  • @ronalddean3630
    @ronalddean3630 4 месяца назад

    Nice work; I like the fact that the only sounds are the removal of all that grime, and the music is perfect. I miss my dad's Ivory W108.

  • @niklashaugeneset4318
    @niklashaugeneset4318 2 года назад +41

    On older cars like these, do you ever measure the paint? Sometimes there could be very little paint left and a softer polish could be a better option. Just curious.

    • @jeffreyrobert9460
      @jeffreyrobert9460 2 года назад +14

      Most cars of this age have single stage paint ie no clear coat. A detailer has to be very careful with paint like this

    Back when that Mercedes was built they were quality cars. I remember one of the Drs in our community bought a 68 240D brand new for his wife. Beautiful craftsmanship. Nowadays with all the electronics they’re a nightmare.

    Hey you forgot the carpet and head liner! If there is mould on the vinyl there is mould right through the leather seats and carpets. You should know that you can remove the carpet panels ( except for the front seats) . And you will find a lot of unhealthy stuff under there.
