One of the greatest cars ever made, this Mercedes 300SL Roadster came to us for a restoration detailing from our good friends at Silver Arrow Cars. This is one of the most well known 300SL roadsters to ever be owned by a Gullwing Group International member. This car has spent more time on Gullwing group tours and events than any other 300SL through Silver Arrow Cars.
This car comes with its original hard top in ITS ORIGINAL shipping crate, tool roll and a great history file showing the lore of this classic beast. is the perfect 300SL to get in and drive on any event and not worry about a stone chip. The paint has patina, the interior is original and we were tasked with making this 300SL look as good as she can be, regardless of her mileage.
We started with a dry ice cleaning of the undercarriage, wheel wells, and engine bay, before we applied a new protective coating, to help it last another 100 years. Then we brought it over to our main shop for a deep interior detailing, scrubbing and restoring every inch of the entirely original interior. After, we got to work on bringing the paint back to life and polishing the various chrome and plastic pieces on the car.
After us, this is heading to the Mercedes Benz Classic Center for a complete service and inspection.
Is the Mercedes Benz 300SL the greatest car of all time?
Enjoy the video, give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing!

Very very nice job. The car wasn't in the best condition, so the change is huge. I like the work of the undercarriage, seems that car has been driven for a lot of km (I think that some silent blocks will be replaced at Mercedes), but the new look is extreme. As ever, the best job. Beautiful car (I remember Bruce Meyer's gulfwing in black too)

Thank you Emilio! This car is definitely a driver! Probably highest milage 300sl thats been through the shop by a long shot. But great patina and cleaned up real nice

Single stage paint is surprisingly magical. Once that tarnish is off, it reveals such great finishes. Yea, 300SLs are in my top 3 of my favourite classic cars. Love the Pagodas and most old and new vintage series like the M102, S123, R107 etc... Once you detail this stuff, you realise how great the quality is of those cars. You just don't see this in new cars.

German cars of the past few decades may be popular in design and in other marketing and brand aspects, but they are pretty bad cars in general and have a lot of problems. Behind these brands are also ethically dubious companies. They have cheated and betrayed in terms of the environment (see the diesel emissions scandal) and are investing in Chinese regions where a series of ongoing human rights abuses against the Uyghurs is happening. I used to love German cars, but they are absolutely not a vision today anymore. A modern car manufacturer of the future will have totally different values and offer environmentally-friendly vehicles not potentially produced by slaves. Sadly …
@sandersson2813

@@097hhd63 No one makes a bad car anymore, and all have considerable warranty. Just take care of them and put proper fuel in. There's always a "reliability c*nt" around Wien you don't need one. Cars virtually never break down. Who doesn't have factories on China? It's a bigger market than USA and Europe combined so show me who doesn't operate there.

@IAMDetailing
@IAMDetailing Год назад
Oftentimes, yes. Typically we are looking to replace the surface with a more even coat of a modern protection wax. If the factory cosmoline is in great shape, we often times insist on keeping it original. But this was a very well driven and loved 300SL - it had seen some use! So we stripped it down and allowed for the new owner to choose how they want to protect the car - with a full cosmoline replacement, or a waxoyl coverage that looks slick and is a more modern protection, or keep it clean and basic with a 3M clear matte protection wax. We are always applying some level of protection to the sensitive parts after cleaning. Not to mention we’re in southern california and risk of rust and corrosion is quite minimal here
