  • This dirty 1967 Mercedes W108 gets it first detail in 10 years! In last week's video, the car received a thorough exterior wash and today I'm going to get to work on polishing the paint. I'm also going to give the interior a well-deserved deep clean to get rid of all the mold and grime. Hope you enjoy!

    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

    • @Racedoc
      @Racedoc Před 2 měsíci +2

      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.

    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!

    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.

    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 Před rokem +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

    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.
