The Turbo is located on the right side of the engine, right unterneath the Airfilter… if you don’t push this car as long as it’s cold and change oil regularly, this is a car for a lifetime. Mileages around 600t without even opening the engine is usual. Probably the best S-Class Mercedes ever made. I had 7 W126 in the past 20 years and all of them were sold for a high price again. The best engine is the 5 Liter V8 of the later years… strong, lasting forever and even today quiet fast on the German Autobahn.

Good to hear it was left in a garage instead of outside to rot away. Beautiful cars these are. I'm not a fan of the US headlights or the larger bumpers but we never got the Diesel engines here in europe. They are such brilliant engines, reliable, great MPG and decent performance from the turbo engines. I believe this is an early pre-facelift car, 1981/2 maybe. The alloys are called Mexican Hat alloys, period correct. They look nice but I personally prefer the facelift alloys that came on these cars.

I like that you pre-soak before you power wash so that you don't turn the dirt into an abrasive driven by the high pressure - too many people take a dry filthy car and just blast it - you also started on the roof and worked down which is how I was taught to wash ANYTHING so that you dont end up washing dirt off the roof over a just cleaned hood etc. wetting the car first before power washing and then washing from the top down is, at least to me, the smartest way to do this.

The Mercedes cars from the 1970s to 1990s are likely the most overbuilt cars of all time, save maybe an early LS400. The paint alone weighs nearly 20 pounds on these cars. The MB-Tex vinyl interiors they created are nearly indestructible. They created the most elaborate process for rust inhibition which is why so many still come back like new with a deep detailing. The engine bay should come out even nicer than what I saw. The sides should be the same glossy silver as the exterior paint. Take a look at any nicely detailed Benz on BAT. Last thing, guys make sure that anytime you get an old German car, esp an old Mercedes, don’t forget to deep detail the undercarriage and wheel wells. They come back LIKE NEW because of how well these were built! Imagine the undercarriage/wheel wells. It’s honestly worth doing another 2-4min short video.

@jimspackman8527 Жыл бұрын

Wheels are Barockfelgen. Always liked this era of S-class, a girl friend of mine's father had a 280SE back in 1982 (yeah, I'm old...) But why anyone buying an S class in the US would choose that diesel engine is completely beyond me. In Europe where gas has always been expensive it sort of makes sense but even then, it's a f***ing Benz, if you can afford it then you can afford the V8. In the US? No sense at all! And by the way, nice job. The end result took me back 40 years to when I was young and stupid. And for that you have my thanks.

Great job gentlemen you brought this beauty back to life. What kind of person would abandon such a luxurious car? The carpets and seats speak of a grand and luxurious car. I don’t understand why you don’t put the car up on a four post and clean the bottom, take off the tyres (I mean if you can take off the seats to do the interiors) and clean the inside of the tyre rims. Also why don’t you start with the interior first?
