The American bumpers ruin every car. Whoever get's it must replace them.
I was thinking the same thing
Thinking the same thing. Beautiful car but the BUMPERS 😩
The wheels also look out of place.
That was the desirable look of the time. Don’t get a vintage car if you have modern tastes lol or YOU will be the one ruining it doing that.
I was boutta say the same thing. Their laws butchered our beautiful cars 😅
Axel is a real gem. Love any video that he's in. Another terrific video as always, Larry!
Indeed! Always learn something cool from him :)
Why cause he refuses to clean the outsides of injectors and considers that detail work? Or is it his messy desk ..lol
Detailing my car gives me the feeling that I have accomplished something. That the forces of dirt and disorder have been dealt a setback and it calms me down. It's the sense of control over the outcome. Thanks so much, Larry!
I always think about how my car will get dirty anyways after a morning of detailing it, but I really don't mind anymore. The calmness and intention I feel after getting a solid clean product if only for a few hours is always worth it
Well said! Here too. Welcome distraction from the other disorder these days.
@@javierreyes786 Yes, I'm the guy that cleans the car I'm about to drive even if it's just to the store or wherever and back...😊
Yeah I have my car a nice bath including the wheel wells and so much mud and dirt came out but it made me happy I did it
Hands down my favourite type of your videos. Acquire/Clean/Flip
I freaking love how the interior of axel's office looks, its cluttered as hell but I bet you he know's exactly where he put everything
organised chaos
Yeah gave serious hoarder vibes. But i know the minute he throws away something, he will find a use for it. Love when he is in the videos!
I cringed at it, but my preference is for things to be tidy.
He’s probably a hoarder. I’ll pass thanks
Larry, two days ago I went to detail a fairly large van, complete detail and polish, and doing this properly for the first time, you have helped me so much, now I’m on my way to becoming a professional detailer❤
Awesome, keep it up!
@@AMMO-NYC thank you so much, I absolutely love my job, I will always mention you to my boss
You should start up a giant spare change jar and see how full it can get in 5 years or so with all the loose change you find in your projects. Donate it all after of course.
Would be a cool conversation piece or something to see in the background slowly fill up with loose change.
Good idea!
The old Mercs are my favorite episodes. It's amazing how well they come back to life.
Whoever ordered this car was a baller, silver with red pin stripe & a red interior, OMG, just a great car brought back to life, great job as always Larry, Rj in Oz
Yes but incorrect wheels
Life has been rough for me lately, but this fresh video, vibe and pure enjoyment of bringing beautiful machines back to life just made my day! Thanks Larry!
Your positivity and love for cars is second to none. The way you took a 20% bargaining without blinking an eye for giving it a good home is a *testament* to that
A statue? You mean a testament.
Yes, probably. English is not my first language, so guess you're right 😀
This is an example of the argument for buying quality and not cheap crap. The interior almost cleaned up to look new again and that can be credited to high quality materials that are used in the first place. A Buick from the same era, stored in the same initial condition, for the same amount of time, would have faded six shades, cracked everywhere, come unglued and just generally fallen apart. Quality lasts. Love your channel, Larry.
From 🇪🇬 .... Your work is a piece of art my friend... You deserve all the best.
Amazing job and transformation as always! Loving these parking garage finds.
They really are satisfying.
That Supra is one I'm waiting for with excitement. Love the vids Larry, keep it up!
Love the fists up in the air look of joy before Larry says “ohhhh so close.” We should all be lucky enough to tap into that kind of pure joy, whether in our work, hobbies, or both!
Larry - only wish I had your patience! Great find, and I'm glad Axel got the car. 20+ years ago lived in Danbury. Axel always came through, especially when I was young and didn't always have the money to get things done and had to handle things myself. You have a great friend in him! Let him know he's remembered fondly by this viewer!
Sometimes when I watch how Larry films his videos it almost reminds me of This Old House but with cars, awesome stuff
There is something so refined about the SLC 450. My friends Dad had one in highschool. She actually snuck it out and drove me home one night. I felt so cool in that car.
Nothing in my world beats spending time in my amateur detailing of any car I have owned....got the bug from my father, and the mental break from whatever else can be annoying if anything disappears.....after doing whatever I do...to just stare at the results...Larry, nice work, and immediately to a new owner that will improve it even more
Not sure which I enjoy more, the detail or your storytelling! :)
Never mind $5,000 for the car, I think there must be $5,000 in towels thrown away at the end of these processes!
As someone who used to own a detail biz 20 years I'm very impressed with all you have created
axel is a fantastic guy. he gives insight on the problem and educates us. i love him.
Awesome job! Those are the hardest yet most satisfying jobs! Was fun to watch someone else’s process. Thanks for sharing.
All the SL Merc's are my favorite Mercedes. Great work. nice car.
I've watching your videos for years now but I wanted to acknowledge the amazing soundtrack to your videos; I've added so many tracks from your videos to my Spotify playlists. Many thanks!
Great detail Larry, those seats and the carpet came up amazingly well. There's always something refreshing when an old car roars back to life!
Old MB quality is insane.. Carpets look amazing luv the red
Sir, it gives me joy seeing your work, I love cleaning cars, but with your passion for a clear car, no one has it. I love BMW and Porches. BTW your 911 is sick.
Ammo is the man this cleanup is OFF THE HOOK BEEN A SUB FOR YEARS always so in-depth with the cleanups love it
This guy is great. I use his products and advice to keep my semi truck and personal vehicles looking great. Take your time and pay attention to detail. Thanks Larry
As the owner of a similar Mercedes (1984 300sd) I have to say that this video was should restoring for me. Seeing these old Mercedes' cleaned up and given the love they deserve is very relaxing.!
Very cool story and video! I’m really impressed with how well it cleaned up (great work) and happy it went to someone who will take care of it!
Great video Larry !! I love these transformations..... Amazing car and the color combo was spot on, nice ride. THANKS for all you do !!
Love these old Mercedes. Such solid and classic cars. Looks so great after you do your magic and every town needs an Alex, he knows his stuff!
I dont even own a car but I have watched the entire channel. Its so satisfying. Love your craft on the cars and the amount of work on the videos too
Really enjoy these detail jobs on older vehicles. Being a Porsche fan myself, I also appreciate the car sitting in Bay 2.
L-O-V-E this generation of coupe!! Your videos are near therapeutic to watch! Love seeing these great motors revived! I think the rims on this are from a later generation, but they sure cleaned up beautifully!
Beautiful car! Nice transformation! As always, well done Larry
That wood grain Pioneer head unit with matching remote is sweet!
I had a 79 280slc. Same color with blue cloth interior and the factory rubber rear spoiler. Straight 6 with the Bosch fuel injection. My grandparents picked it up as a gray Market when it was new .I loved it
In addition to the usual detailing, I appreciate the fuel injector demonstration to illustrate the process & intent.
Another vehicle saved. The renovation looks awesome. Watching you bent over cleaning those carpets reminds me of how my back hurts after cleaning my floor mats. It would be great if there was some way to elevate them off the floor of the garage for easier cleaning and back saving.
Great video once again!
Loved the piano music during the carpet cleaning. Nice touch!
commented , and subscribed. thanks to this fantastic video.
This model Merc are so elegant and stylish. Just a pity that the US govt disfigured it with those lights and bumpers.
Have always loved the SLC. Those rear roofline with its beautiful window louvers are so cool. What a nice clean up and injector restore.
Seeing Axel’s office space gave me some major ocd triggers 🤣.
Awesome video as always! Seriously one of the best channels on CZcams. Each video is a story into solving a problem, and bringing life into something old and forgotten about!
DO you actually have OCD or are you just saying that?
@@zakp.2759 nah, just joking around. But I’d go insane if I had that much stuff piled up around my desk space haha!
Enjoyed the video. Enjoyed the injector cleaning process - not sure I've ever seen that. Thanks for posting.
Love videos when you rescue and flip! Love to see you grow!
awesome video man, its so relaxing to watch your vids after finishing up school!
Love the piano music during the mat cleaning. It sounded like something from Only Murders in the Building.
Never seen a third brake light like that on an SL/SLC. Must have been a State specific requirement for that model year.
It always inspires me to get out and get cleaning mine and the wife's car. I just wish it wasn't so damn cold! It's one of my favorite things to do and it's made so easy with the right stuff. Thanks for the awesome videos and products!
You make music I normally would not listen to sound good. Thanks for the videos. They are a joy to watch and learn from. I can’t wait for winter to be over so I can wash my cars again.
This was so satisfying. Specially with the music involved. I literally fell asleep by watching this video. Keep up the good work Larry
I really love your videos sir. You inspired me to get my camera out and record and learn to edit and share some work myself
Wow, beautiful car and you really brought it back to life Larry. Great job as always! 👏🏼
Love the old Merc episodes :)
I'd really like that when your applying an AMMO product, you show a small pop-up of that product. So we know what your using when and where.
Before you start your weekend, WATCH THIS! Superb job as always, thanks Larry! I learn something new every time :)
Again another great job. I was excited to see that Pioneer Premiere radio in it, I had one for longest time. Was a very expensive deck back in early to mid 90's.
the red interior are amazing, i really like how this car looks! well, she got a really good home so, it's a win.
Great music choices and montages. Well done, everyone involved
🤯Insane transformation! I really enjoyed how you used the steamer to clean to clean the leather seats!
17:23. a very organized man. Edit: I love how he can't be bothered to "clean the outside" of the injectors.
These cars have always had a piece of my heart. I had to do some checking though, I had one a few years newer that also had a red interior, but I could have sworn it was more merlot than cherry. Sure enough, MB changed their colour options for the 1980s. The bright red with the pin striping really pops though! Beautiful final result-it came back to life!
This interior color fits so freaking good and looks amazing after getting cleaned. Always great to see how you spending your time and love to those classic cars Larry. Glad to know your channel. I am a very huge Mercedes-Benz fan. Keep doing what you doing Larry ❤
Awesome video. the interior before and after was awesome!
Always satisfying. The piano music was a nice touch!!
Such a Beauty! Great job Larry 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🚗
SLC 5.0 was a homologation rally car. Very successful. I don't like those stainless wheel arch aftermarket trims. Also prefer stock rims. Beautiful car.
Love the new ASMR approach to sound editing!
Came out looking Stellar Larry. Good Price to a Good Man that Bailed ya out on them Fuel Injectors. 😂
Another great video, Larry!
Love old SLC 450's. Was lucky enough as a kid to travel through France in one to Spain. Electric windows were mind blowing to me!
I LOVE Axels shop!!! This show is so much fun.
That diffuser is awesome on those nasty rugs. Amazing how much the carpets bounced back. The interior in general looks like it came out of another car. Well done Larry!
I have a lot of respect for how you conduct business. Keep up the amazing work
Astonishing job on this one, Larry! As usual. Love the matching woodgrain remote and faceplate on the very uncommon mid 1990s Pioneer KEH series radio (I have a few non woodgrain models).
WOW, what a transformation! That car looks awesome!
WOW!!!! Beautiful 450, great color combination.
A mk4 Supra is my dream car. VERY excited for next weeks video! Keep up the great work sir!
This was a great flip. Well done Larry!
Great stuff as usual. It seems like all that dirt and dust somewhat protect the vehicle as they come back very well.
Haven't seen your videos in awhile. Great project.
Another beautiful resto, Larry. Nice save!!
Loved this series of videos. That 535i was excellent too! 🙌
Just love the C107 Mercedes!....it was the most expensive car in MBZ lineup and a complete sales flop in the US selling only 3000 in 7 years of production ending in 1981.
I didn't realize at first it was the hardtop model - the C107 - and suddenly, rescuing it made far more sense. And you can't beat that interior color scheme. Very hard to find. A good win all around for you and Axel.
These videos are just the best, picking old cars and getting them clean and running... I hope some day I can do half of what you do, this is my life long dream and it just got bigger and bigger since 2008, so the time to act is coming 😁 All the best wishes for you Larry and I hope maybe some day we can meet in a random car meet and exchange detailing secrets 🤫
Thanks so much for the kind words!
Another Glorious German rescued. Such a great transformation , well done.
turned out really nice. always been a Porsche guy but the older I get I've definitely become appreciative of Mercedes
Nice to see a C107 get some love.
Awesome video, Larry thanks for saving another vintage iconic car!!
Good looking 450. That’s awesome, right after detailed, sold.
Always loved the SLC. Most beautiful coupe ever created.
The timeless elegance of red leather done right... Shame interiors are all so similar these days!
Always a perfect job Larry! Classical Music was a good idea.
How wonderful to recover a classic!!!! Waiting for the beautiful Supra, high expectations!!! hugs from Brazil!!
