This montage is something i wanted to put together for sometime. It gives an overview of the location and condition of several Mercedes found in the California foothills. Three of which were W109's. Sad at first, but I hope that it gives some inspiration knowing they were rescued and will see the road once again. This took place in early 2020 at the very start of the Covid pandemic. It has given me something positive to focus on during a difficult time for many.

The music track that accompanies the video is by two of my favorite artists. David Helping and Jon Jenkins. The track "Found" is from the Album "Found."

Wow that last dark blue was beautiful. If I went to that forest where you pulled some cars out I would find it very hard to leave there without rescuing several cars. What a shame that someone is just letting them slowly deteriorate like that. All these cars are from a time that I think Mercedes was the finest car in the world. It is also sad that a lot of the people who bought these cars new may no longer be with us. It is surprising that people in Europe are buying these older cars from the US ………. I would have thought there would be a better inventory of older Mercedes in Europe.

I think the ones in Europe tend to have worse rust damage. These were certainly not perfect, but are salable. Cheers John

They are. The guy has now decided he would rather let them sit and rot in the woods than sell them?? People are strange.

I've been subscribed to a number of RU-vid car channels over quite a period of time and I often wondered why no one has tackled a 6.3. Although, I had heard there were some people interested, (Tavarish from what I understand found a really manky one apparently, but went no further) it was not until you found this car and began working on it that the space was properly filled. I so appreciate you doing this not just to save that car but, selfishly I must admit, I really enjoy your videos and the project.

Hi John; nicely brought it to the point. Why throw something away when there is a chance to save it. We have enough cars on the planet, no new ones needed. Reminds me in saving mine (also in 387) in 2007 which came from Thousand Oaks, there with an uncertain future.....took me til 2014 before he came back on the Autobahn for the first time again....Best Regards, Oliver

Absolutely fantastic work on fantastic cars. There was a text in the movie "Sweden", where was that? I live there 🙂

I would have to ask the young guy that bought the car. He intends to bring it back to life there. He told there's only 48 left in Sweden now. Cheers John.

What am i missing here? You mean there is a place with cars in the woods and you can just pick up anyone you like?

I wish. No, these all belonged to one guy that had passed away. We were able to save the three 109s. A guy came from LA for one of the 6.9s. The remaining (from my understanding) are in on going negotiations with other buyers. Cheers John.
