80-83 no ABS and the alloys name is Barock 14” this model are only for US market not for EUR
its produced from 1980 to about 1985
1983 and those wheels are worth a lot of money. 1980-1991 W126 is probably the best built and engineered cars of all time. Proper maintenance they can last indefinitely.
Happy New Year WD Detailing!
Not sure about the year but the W126 300SD was USA only and the engine was basically the W124 300 turbo diesel engine.
This car was produced between 1981-1985 and as mentioned USA only. 5-pot 3-liter.
I have a 300se like the one in the video, here in Saudi Arabia, it's done 980,000km, which is roughly 600,000 miles. And she is still working with all her might
That time period mercedes are build to last father to son.
I had a W124 with 200000 miles on it. Ran like a new car🙂 Emissions laws in London meant it had to go sadly😕
@phoneitbuyitpickitup9212 that's amazing dude
Bhai this comment proves oil is very cheap in Arabia
والله انك كذاب كل يوم بالصناعيه واكيد مغير لها الف مكينه😂😂 قال تعمل بكامل قوتها تسوقها علينا انت
The wheels are called Mercedes Barock. You can find them from 14in to 17in in size. Definitely keep them, it adds so much character to any older mercedes. They are in need of refinishing but still looks good.
Better known as 'Mexican hat' wheels in the Mercedes fraternity or to give them their proper title 'Mexican Hat Bundt Alloys'
👍👍
@@WeeShoeyDugless Maybe in the US. Here in Europe everyone calls them barock.
@@kristofkiss1940 Not in the UK Kristóf, we call them (afectionately) Mexican hats.
@@WeeShoeyDugless oh I see. Well, then I learned something new today
Magyarul meg narancsfacsaró XD
Like a Rolex watch. The GREATEST AUTO EVER MADE! Period. 1980's.😄❤👍🙏
One of the best built cars I have ever seen on this type of channel. They were simple and very dependable.
86? Just dry ice blasted the engine bay of my 84 300D - fantastic!! Cleared off 39 years of dirt and grime. Night and day - the right tool for the job...
The GREATEST CAR OF ALL TIME! Period.👍😑😄❤
Outstanding job guys on a stunning car. The clay bar work shows your commitment to properly cleaning the car. I always look forward to the collaborations with other detailers. Keep up the great work.
That wheel style was called Barock I think. These cars were practically indestructible. I used to work at a retirement home and we had a resident who had 2 1984 models. Both of them had 600K+ miles on them.
600k?! WOW
@@WDDetailing yeah with proper maintenance these are million mile cars. The body goes to crap long before the engine.
Yes! Indestructible!! For several reasons Mercedes 40 years ago sent to some African countries tons of Mercedes which stopped being used in the rest of the world and you can find videos and street interviews about people saying that their Mercedes have +1 million km or some crazy stuff like that. Of course the cars are in really bad shape but for being used daily for +40 years and still working is just mind blowing.
@@WDDetailing Good job. How much does such a comp!ete cleaning and polishing cost?
Beautiful Merc! I wish they still had this quality built into them!
❤ this car! Such a classic beauty. Great job, guys!!
1982, Turbo location on the passenger car under the Air Cleaner. that is a rare color if memory serves me right! Biggest issue from experience is the Timing Chain Tensioner. I've heard of these hitting 700K. Mine had 450K on it, and I sold it and the current owner has 580K. Fantastic cars!
i have to agree with you, because you can see the air charge tube below the factory air cleaner
As a Mercedes fan thank you.
Best Car, Gold Era Mercedes Benz
Лучшая машина в мире!!!
Hello from Germany,
the wheels are called Barock Wheels/Style.
Que belo projeto ,o resultado final ficou espetacular ,um grande abraço de um fã do canal ,diretamente do Rio de Janeiro _Brazil.
I love how this car came out. Sick results 👌🏾❤🔥
Wunderschön
Ein Stern ist ein Stern
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.
Superb work guys! Amazing outcome.
Awesome 👌 👏 👍🏿 job on the W-126 Turbo diesel
My upstairs neighbor had this model, purchased in Germany & shipped back to California (along with a Rolls). After her husband passed, I would take her to Costco & run errands with her driving this massive car. It was like driving a tank, solid steel construction. Smooth ride over the hills. A super posh interior, real wood on the dash, it was beautiful and an amazing vehicle. A real pleasure to drive. Godspeed to Pat, she was a fabulous person.
Great contect, keep up the good work, it so satisfying to watch this automotive masterpiece came back in life, glory days. Btw the rims are made by Fuchsfelge, these are forged called barok classic rims.
Wow! Awesome revival fellas! The turbo is adjacent to the flux capacitor...under the air filter.
1984, I remember my father had a 380SEL back in the day. 😊😊
Ilove all the Crome trim on the older Mercedes
That little piece of carpet in the center console @9.00 can be removed very easily by getting a screwdriver under an edge and lifting it up. It's not glued in place or anything.
My father still has his exactly like that 1984 300SD in silver, all original everything including the first aid kit never used still in the window compartments. Only thing replaced was the power antenna.
What an amazing job for an amazing car. Happy New Years fellas.
Amazing job I did not even think you’d be able to get it that clean wow I am blown away
Maravilha de Mercedes, serviço perfeito!
So satisfying to watch.
I hope one day you guys find a ford zx2 and detail it or an older ford escort I love how much you TLC yall have this channel is beyond the most underrated keep up the videos!!!!💯💯
It looks like my parents’ 1983 SD. It was silver and navy blue. Very fun.
Parabéns pelo trabalho!!!!
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?
Beautiful car.❤
Very beautiful cars in old times 💚💚👌
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.
It was called :Pacific Blue". I had it in my 1980 450 SEL. That car was a total cruiser! I loved being able to drive it for hours on end at very high rates of speed. Never had it on the Autobahn, but definitely drove it well above 100 MPH! Never hesitated or bawked at anything I asked it to do!
What a beautiful car ❤
Great pressure washing footage! I will miss doing my own pressure washing until spring. Frozen here in Minnesota and no drain in shop so I’m stuck until then I can do rinseless washes but most of the vehicles I do are too dirty to use that method.
Go watch detail geek he lives in Canada and still does detailing
@@4fficiallo88 Oh yeah. I watch him all the time. Big difference is his shop has a floor drain. He doesn't wash outside in the winter either. I don't have a floor drain in my shop. Yet....
Understandable! At least you can watch detailing videos til then?? 😅 although i know it’s not the same
@@WDDetailing True. I'm still detailing. Just doing interiors at the moment. Looking into trying ONR or Ammo Frothy on some of the vehicles that are not too dirty, BUT most of them in Minnesota are filthy this time of year.
Yep….I always miss car detailing in the winter… But even my garage is below zero in MN.
it's nice to watch you work.
Wow ! Excellent job. 1982 is my guess
Super nice cleaning, you make me remember my Childhood, I grew UP in Düsseldorf ( Germany) in 1971 to 1984 and this Mercedes-Benz serie was a SUPERSTAR car or even a Big Boss one. Vielen Dank für euere video, superklasse. Well done Gentlemen.
As a truck driver for 45 years, I love diesel engines in that one right there is capable of running 1,000,000 miles
Happy new year Brent and RJ!
For the first time in my life I see such front lights in a Mercedes 😲🤔🙄 greetings from Poland 👌🤭
Good therapy watching this
The interior color is Perfect
Great work !!! And Beautiful Benz !!!
Beautiful Great Video 😍🤩
Top work lads 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
What a nice combination of colour 🥰
Hey guys, I love your channel. I’m surprised you hadn’t seen those wheels before; they were the most common style in the late 80s and early 90s and yes, I was old enough to remember as I was 18 in 1986 and REALLY into European cars. My dad had a 1977 300D and that’s the car on which I learned to drive! Those W124s can run forever, honestly, if you take care of it. There are many documented that have gone over 1,000,000 miles. Oh, and thank you for removing the dealer badge. That is so tacky!
старые мерседесы невероятны по ресурсу, они вечные.
сейчас у меня w124 1986 года, заводские пружинные рекаро, они массово ставились на них на дорестайлинговых w124. до сих пор ни пружины, ни набивка не просели. с моими 87 кг сидя на водительсеом сидении не достою до днища сидения. и ткань, они тканевые, ткань не выгорела и не развалилась, единственный недочет это боковина водительского сидения, стандартная болячка. и машина всегда была в эксплуатации, несколько лет вообще стояла неподвижно под открытым небом, зимой -15-20 градусов а летом -10-15, просто помыл их и они как новые
Mercedes w126, 80-83’ looks like non ABS car. Wheels are barocks. As for the seating being special I’m not sure maybe since they are early w126 seats they are non airbag seats? The W126 is gorgeous as is and even better now. Looks straight off the showroom and that diesel runs like a sewing machine. Nice job guys. Happy new year.. turn up
Looks just like the 1982 that I had. It's before the facelift, which I think was in 1985 (not sure). And it's a US market car.
I've has 3 300 TD's 76' 78' 79 Only problem with them is the diesel rack for the injection wears out...expensive fix.
Great job looks like a new one 👍👍
I have a question what do u guys di with the cars after your done cleaning them do u store them or do u give them back to the original owners
Would love to have one of these great cars
that car is so awesome!!! i love it
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.
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.
That era of Mercedes are being restored and that will make a great project.
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.
Turbo is under air cleaner.. I know these cars well. Best designed car ever built.
It’s Worth Saving, it’s a piece of Excellent German Engineering, I had a couple of them.
I like this car =)
It looks like the 1981 300SD that I owned for 9 years with blue interior and silver/blue paint. Nothing special about the blue interior other than it's rare and fades easily if not protected from the sun. That SD was the best car I've ever owned, drove it until 300K, then sold it to a fellow in my neighborhood several years ago. I still see it driving around once in a while.
one of the sturdy model they have...love to see this reborn
классная работа. Молодцы. У нас в России очень любят все модели Мерседес. Удачи. И с новым годом ребята.
Awesome transformation. Looks like a different car.
The car appears to have been stored properly. The detailing outcome does not show rust damage or significant Paint wear. That Is good😊 that Is a Nice Work
Stunning car congratulations ...
Beautiful Car
"hey Mr George, How much we pay for Brent? Noo, thats too much money"...lol, busted!!!
I was caught 😂
I am recording this video for you Mr George
The first really nice car I detailed was a 1976 Mercedes 450 SEL sedan in chocolate brown with tan leather. It belonged to a doctors wife friend of the family. The quality of a Mercedes in the 70s when compared to the plastic of a Ford or a Chevy was unreal. Just the way the seats felt when you got inside, 😊or that classic thump of a Mercedes Benz door closing. It was awesome. This car you doing appears to be mid to late 80s.
I love your videos. Greetings from lower saxony - Germany
those years the Mercedes benz came out with those wheels. whish I could join you guys washing that beauty. looks like brand new again
That Mercedes Benz came from the dealer that used to be in the city where I live near, Lakewood, Ohio. My Uncle used to buy his Mercedes Benz at that dealer.
Bundt wheels in the US market. I had one of these and a 300D. Both were in great shape but not museum quality so I replaced them with 15 inch factory wheels and kept these for snow tires. If it were an immaculate low mileage example, then for the sake of originality I would leave those on.
About 15 years ago, I worked with a guy (we worked at a furniture store) he had a older 70's or 80's Mercedes similar to the one in the video. Just NA, no turbo. He kept it minty clean, inside and out. Had over 250k miles on it, and it always looked like he had just ran it through a touchless carwash.
Sadly, I'm sure he's passed by now, so not sure of the car's current whereabouts.
This is my favourite MB body style and those wheels were very common for the era
سيارة أكثر من رائعة❤
Hi guys ! GREAT video ! What I might think it would be a great makeover is to get an abandoned car and to make it brand new.
Happy New Year to the one who reads this 🙏🏾
Great car, great job, great video. 😁
Hola Genio. Que producto le poneas a la carroceria antes de usar la hidrolavadora..???
love mercedes
Bello y hermoso ❤❤❤❤
THE BEST 👍👍👍👍👍
Great job overall ,
but the way that navy carpet came up - must have been so rewarding to see that before your eyes !
Perfect 😍👌
Nunca anduve en un auto mejor que ese, el andar que tiene ese auto es majestuoso. Muy li do trabajo
Dirty door jam is driving me crazy lol
Good job
I couldn’t agree with you more about the dealer badge or sticker. Every single time I get a car, the first thing I remove is that stupid sticker then give it a good deatail. Great content!
