Beautiful car... those 60’s and 70’s S classes were very understated and classy
I find it amazing how any car lowered like this looks so good.
The front end of these are absolute sweet
Probably could run over a couple crowds and have no problem. Built like a tank.
I agree. Incredible!
The car is clean ,classic, and alive.
A classic car lying in the dirt has nothing to do with a classic car. It was never design that way. The chassis is a part of what was classic.
Jimmy is such a nice, smart guy, and that's reflected on a car, just perfect!
Can't believe how stupid are some comments here, regarding hight...
They dont know nothing
So fucking pathetic. The bloke has put together a beautiful Merc. and commenters are talking about his height. Bell ends!
Classy and beautiful. I love how you incorporated west coast urban flavor by dropping it low. The pearl paint choice is what really makes this car a vibe. Good execution!
Looks even slicker than the popular S-Class Coupe!
He looks like Chester Bennington from linkin park
I prefer originals but this ride is beautiful. German engineering combined with SO-CAL style. Luv it.
You've done a beautiful job on this W108. Respect. U.K. 3.5s mostly had the different stacked double headlights though. So nice you got it column. Most U.K. are floor. FYI If it's 72, the plate should be a a K or L not a J.
I am coming for you and your lowest status bruh! Much respect from another European tuner here in the states
Very nice vehicle, and a right hand drive. Good luck finding parts.
Lot cooler than other cars in the lot.
Spectacular job, respect!
Please somebody give me hint how all these people afford to restore/mod these beautiful machines?? Sure I can buy an old one for three or four grand but if I can't afford to restore it I don't see the point
Making that money and living your dream life. It’s very very possible. Some people are born into the lifestyle while others create it. Be a creator my friend. Make your life become exactly what you want
Aka sell your soul
$$$$ it's what makes ones dreams come true
They definitely don't have kids.lol
Actually they are mechanics and restore more than just one car and sell it with profit. But its not so lucrative than it looks. It is more a lifestyle and the joy of restoring what keeps them going.
Freekin'Awesome Benz sir! Looks like Money
Brilliant, RHD😎✔️ greetings from Australia 🇦🇺🤛
Sweet brother !
Clean low beauty, great ride.
Thats a beautiful car.. I would love to own a classic import like that
So sick!! I envy!!
Cool video👍
More interior shots and suspension in action, maybe a shot of the engine would have completed this. The owner could be more of a voiceover than the main focal point.
Yeah some interior shots would have been awesome, I had a W115 a few years ago.
European spec? Last time I checked we have the steering wheel on the left in Europe 🤣
Brit detected
@@shorteranton my mistake. I ment the steering wheel..
Amazing 🇨🇭
Nice job
What do you guys think if I buy one for $3000, needs tlc?
Beautiful car
The car is perfect apart from the owner needs adjusting
Why is it right hand drive? Did the original owner import it from the UK?
Most likely UK, but as far as I know they also sold some to Asia...maybe japan or hong kong (as a RHD)
Thanks. Was curious. Would've been good to know where it came from. Keep up the good work!
Imported from Jamaica
Saw this car before he got in Jamaica
On burnout garage he said it was imported from Jamaica
What air ride system did U use?
I just wonder how many times this guy had the cops called on him for getting into this car and driving away.....
Damn clean
If he every wants to sell it I am interested, as it’s a right hand drive model and I am in Australia, perfect for me
What is that sick asf colour
The carpet on the Dash IS NOT POSSIBLE to find Germany for Left Hand Drive
Are they Bermuda shorts?. 😆😆😆
They shouldve put Jimmys Instagram
Wow
Hi guys, do you know what is the paint code of this beautiful M.B in the video?
sorry, i don't know the paint code...if anyone knows pls tell us! :)
Cool
sick
Ever for sale Jimmy, hit me up. Suave
Wow .... was really hoping to see the suspension in action and interior and engine shots .... that's for the really shitty job.
Black or navy blue would be better color
The best pic best mod for "carnaval
I give you my give me this my es 240d is cool and good
This guy must be 4 ft tall and needs the air ride to get in. BTW that's a British spec, not European.
Praticamente l'ha rovinata.
steering wheel totaly wrong side...awful
Can anybody even see the car past the worse dressed man ever!!! Please call the fashion police ASAP , I can’t see the car, the socks!!! The shorts(capris?) the surgical staples OMG!! Be yourself but damn dude
Ein wunderschönes Auto optisch komplett zerstört.
Jimmy needs to work on himself now.
