[@pfoxhound]

Air in oil line before filter has to be pushed through the filter. Dry media of the filter is invisible for air. When you have oil over filtering media - you create extra resistance. It can rip a hole in your filter.

The back of the driver's seat needs a tiny little bit of "sewing".

Yes I do lol

Love the idea of where this is going!! But what happened to Peter??

[@dominicene3647]

"No one is ever going to see this but just makes me feel better" Great words spoken by a perfectionist with integrity. Love it !!!!

[@luxtempestas]

Well... We saw it! 😬

[@Texasknowhow]

From one perfectionist to another… I do things to perfect a project that no one will ever see all the time. It’s just one of those things we do.

[@eightfooter88]

Looks great! Will be interesting to follow along as you trade!

[@dino6161]

Love it!

[@MrKoaz72]

That car came out great there's no way you can sell it because it represents what you love Mercedes Benz and Ls motors!

[@RexerYTRexer]

He changes them like socks

[@phenomanII]

I really do hope he ends up keeping it, although I'm not sure how much content it can generate, which sadly does matter. Perhaps it could use some boost?

[@eddy5388]

for sure, been here since first video !

[@Nick210]

He’s running a business here.

[@kamata93]

I would go crazy if he sells it. I almost lost it when he sold the 20V Audi Coupe.

[@rast4man]

I'd pay $15k for it. You've done a great job bringing it more to life than it already was.

[@grizoh]

Probably the best all around mechanic on youtube. You're the real deal brother. You make it look easy.

[@philipmulville8218]

The W124 is the Holy Grail - such a tank of a car. Beautiful job, Alex 👍

[@ajdahun]

W123, ask any third world taxi driver...

[@user-ci4kq2fk5u]

If i remember correctly from the previous video the car was originally a 300D model and immediately came up with an idea that I would really like to see on the channel - building an OM606 engine :) Lots of people here in Europe like this engine and tune it(If I am not wrong, I think the OM606 is the 300 Turbo Diesel from a W210). Legends say on stock internals engine can easily take 500 HP.. So, knowing you perfect work from each and every video, I think you will be able to create one of the best cars with an OM606 :)

[@yourmother8309]

He did build a diesel mercedes but with the om648

[@norwegiandude8709]

Om606 was first used in 1993. If you have to have a 722.2 transmisjon or 722.6 then it's superturbo time

[@T_bone]

I really appreciate how you talk through what you are doing, and don't assume your audience knows what does what. And you reiterate or emphasize things even though you covered them in previous videos. It helps to learn how a master mechanic approaches a repair. Much mahalos my bruddah!

[@jasonax1523]

Next car you detail, you should iron decon and clay bar before doing the paint correction. It will make the buffing way easier and cause less damage to your pads and paint.

[@Obiwone1234]

I'm actually sort of surprised he didn't clay bar it, but maybe he thought it wasn't necessary, I don't know.

[@mmanzanozr1]

It's single stage paint, the paint is really soft and you end up pulling more paint than contaminants. Also he doesn't love the car like that.

[@stuartd9741]

I'm the same. Thought a quick clay bar. But the Merc turned out great..

[@bsfunk44]

Trizact wet sand pads before the compound would have made a huge difference

[@scandinavianrc458]

He should probably use a lot less product as well. He’s using WAAYYY to much. It just clogs up the pad and is hard to buff off the paint

[@friguy4444]

I always am looking forward to your great videos and cars Alex ! Every Saturday I know I'll have about an hour at least of great fun and learning! THANK YOU!

[@andrewmcdonald6108]

Sunday morning with a cup of coffee here in OZ. 👍

[@GlassWolfLH]

Two things of note: Don't use primer alone to protect from rust. Primer attracts moisture and will actually promote rust. Shoot something else over the top of that primer on the battery tray. POR15, or just an actual black paint. Two: Before you ceramic coat your glass, hit the glass with your buffer, and your cutting compound. It'll remove any microdebris from the surface, won't harm the glass, and will make it crystal clear, like it was brand new glass. THEN coat it.

[@TheBenzKid]

ASE Mechanic here, one tip in regards to oiling your air filter is to spray it and leave it on newspaper overnight to prevent fouling up the MAF sensor if you have access oil in it.

[@GeFeldz]

E34/E39 BMW 5 series and W/S/C 124 Mercedes are some of the best cars ever made. The LS really fits with the solid engineering of the W124... The W124 diesels were EXTREMELY solid cars, but not fast. They could be made fast though, the straight six 3 liter turbodiesel OM606 engines take 700 hp without being opened. Pretty much the diesel version of a 2JZ. Very nice car with an LS!

[@SuperNovaa34]

Completely agree with you, I've currently a E34 525TDS and it's a perfect cruiser, so efficient and comfy ! This one and the W124 300TD were the kings of road here in Europe 90's.

[@potatis1272]

Had a E39 528i manual, that was a great car and great to drift as it had the same rear axle as the m3, little low on power perhaps with just 198hp but a Turbo will fix that as they take low boost just fine. I would get another 528i just for a daily driver but they are not common anymore, most were sold with the horrible automatic transmission, and most is scrapped.

[@SirTrinculo]

the m104 gas inline 6 is that way too, turbobandit still has a turbo kit for em same with the m103.

[@drewdavis239]

Lol. I have a few manual 528's sitting around. They had a open 188 kompact diff. Not a m3 diff. I did swap my 528 wagon to a m5 210 lsd diff. And a turbo e36 m3 motor. Cant complain , thats for sure.

[@RoofingConnecticut]

E39 owner, my car and these old big body Benz cars truly are peak

[@glassvial]

That car certainly buffed out and cleaned up nicely. I also can't believe they didn't think to swap the throttle body around and instead put a nipple on the hood. I think you got a fairly easy one here, minor mechanical work that needed done, hardly any parts, I think you'll do well selling it or trading it up.

[@Pendaws]

You're a good mechanic Alex. I love watching you fix things and YES, it is a great feeling when you repair something and the vehicle runs brilliantly.

[@robertsomerville320]

Awesome work Alex, firstly if anyone says that this beautiful car is worth less than $15,000.00 they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. It is a total score at 15K! This series of trade up's and engine swaps will be amazing, and I for one will be watching with a smile on my face. Keep on rockin' Alex, your channel is the best! Cheers from Winnipeg, MB. Canada.

[@theglitch99]

It worth less than 15k. Jk bro It's a rad car!

[@bigboycombo6342]

its worth as much as someone is willing to pay. 15k for a 300D would have been interesting but people want the Diesels.

[@James-dh1ji]

So I assume you've already emailed Alex your offer for at least $15,000.00 USD? You seem pretty confident, put your money where your mouth is. Yeah, that's what I thought...

[@humchan2k]

15K seems super reasonable to me. Interior is very nice and close to stock (change the awful shifter asap,) engine has good quality parts in it and it’s a stable platform that looks lovely.

[@grayparatrooper]

too me its not. Its cool but extremely niche somone wit more money than sense might but good luck getting that again from not being seen on youtube. to me its 10k-12 maybe

[@GallopingToast]

Hey Alex have you ever considered using saddle soap for softening & cleaning anything leather, it works really well and can be found at in the horse section at tractor supply stores for very cheap, make sure you grab the solid one.

[@briancummings574]

I’m new to the channel and I get no sleep trying to catch up on videos… I can’t understand why I watch someone work on cars for hours and hours but I can’t stop 🤪 Love the channel and the vibe… But while I’m here 😂 I want to say Alex and his crew are straight up hard working and big hearted people… 🥰

[@LegitStreetCars]

Thanks brother!

[@organiccold]

I know what you feel, i came here to watch a blue Fox Body 6 years ago and got stuck until today 😂

[@paulnj420]

Great job with the Mercedes swap. Looks beautiful. You are by far my favorite car KZbinr. You keep it light and still manage to teach us all something. Half these other KZbinrs show a Ferrari etc then jump cut and it’s done etc etc point being the outsource all the work, well hell I can take a car to someone else to fix it but I wanna learn how to take care of my own car. Thanks Alex your the best. Paul from NJ.

[@jean-marcandjoshua-petsjournal]

That car looks great and appears to be fun as hell to drive! I love the 2nd gear scratch every time!

[@filemonyumul8168]

That work you did with the battery holder frame... you're right. No one will ever see it. But it says a lot about you and the work that you do. Salute!

[@Goooooo]

Thank you for the Avalon King discounts! Last year I took your tip and used Armor Shield on my black C140 on chrome monoblocks. Best part is the lack of break dust. Enjoying this series on another Bruno Sacco classic!

[@lanesworld4000]

Another great video ❤ I couldn't let that Mercedes go after how nice it turned out!

[@jaemaina3807]

[@virenpatel9973]

The best years of MB! I’d kill for one this clean

[@codypanek]

My first car was an 87' 300E. While it was the normal M103 engine, I always imagined an LS would've been awesome and I sure as heck miss that car. Brought back many happy memories with this build!

[@AwesomeKenneth240]

That car is killer man. Its a nice swap, in a nice chasis, with a ton of nice parts. Thanks for sharing.

[@thomasosullivan3405]

Alex, I love your videos you are by far the best instructor/mechanic on any KZbin channel. I appreciate your positive attitude always can do. Good luck. If I had the money I would be on my way to Chicago to pick that up. I absolutely love that car.

[@RavepartyDOTse]

80s/90s two-tone cars truly are underrated as far as styling goes

I think what you have into that car is what it’s worth. It’s an amazing car. Love it.

[@mikeyncali]

Honestly one of the best looking sleeper cars on the road man as usual awesome 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@jigles4330]

Please keep this car, we all wanna see it on the channel, you love mercedes and love the LS, it's so you

[@CarswithNash]

It looks so good Alex!😍 I was kinda hoping you were going to say you fell in love and were going to part with one of your other cars instead… Oh and I always prefill filters, even if they are angled wrong I put a little bit in just to saturate the filter.

[@joshuamstark]

Alex, I love this car so much! Amazing job, so perfect! Thanks for sharing this wonderful car with us! Worth every penny and more.

[@tayk7100]

I've been watching the channel for a few years now, and I just love your vibes, content and knowledge. Keep it up man! One love to you and the family!

[@stuartd9741]

Can you imagine Alex fixing all them cars in his tiny garage? And that monster AMG V12 engine rebuild in his garage.

[@tayk7100]

@stuartd9741 yeah it's pretty wild what he's accomplished. I'm no mechanic, but watching soo much automotive KZbin, it's amazing, and his videos are so detailed explaining how stuff works, and how he repairs or installs stuff is amazing!

[@johntreloar8203]

The 124 turned out nice, I'd say it's worth $15000-00USD all day, nice work Alex.

[@Bugricua]

Great video, brother. Such a beautiful transformation. Love watching you bring these cars up to par. I'm from Chicago, too. It's great to see a fellow Chicagoan do his thing.

[@indrekkpringi]

I watch this channel for the same reason many of you do... The reason can be best exemplified by this famous quote: "I'm not afraid of hard work... I can sit and watch it all day".

[@princeofprussia9120]

I think you got a good deal on this car. It looks really nice. It’s a combo of your two favorite things too! I think keeping options open to sell or trade up is a good idea. I like the concept of trading up. Who knows how this will develop over time.

[@hcbotje]

What about a drag strip run between this and an original 400E/E420 or 500E/E500 even!?

[@rv9990]

This would gap an E500 for sure.

[@hcbotje]

@@rv9990 what kind of horsepower is this engine making?

[@woowocgwhwrehvcb]

Comment for the algorithm. Your videos have inspired me to get my old Bronco back on the road after a decade. Thanks Alex.

[@2003cobramustang]

Wow what a transformation on the paint looks outstanding Alex! Really like this LS swapped Benz!!

[@baileytillman7144]

This is so much more entertaining to watch and you look you are having way more fun working on this than the Mercedes V12. Everything just makes sense on this.

[@Warex06]

This w124 is the 300d model, it came with an inline 5 cylinder engine (OM603) originally, not a V12. However, you are right he looks like he’s having a blast, & he’s not covered in oil and soot like he would be working on the original turbodiesel engine

[@STILL_TESTING]

​@@Warex06he's talking about the amg cl 65 the nightmare on wheels😅

[@robertsmall2061]

I think what you added to the car it’s definitely worth $15k and maybe even a little more. Once you include the swap all your personal labor added parts after the fact, I definitely feel you will get some great offers. Or at least you should. Again another great job and outcome. Cant wait to see what’s waiting next. Good luck. Have a great day. I have some issues with my car it’s clean and I keep it maintained but I have a few interior issues I’ve needed help with. I wish I lived close enough where I could pay you to do the minor repairs. Anyway again have a great day.

[@michaelcoyle1062]

What a great find Alex. I love it. Great video; great turnaround! Keep it up!!

[@Marcel1984nl]

Alex, all the fixes in one video! This car looks great for his age. Swap the car for a better one so you will have to find someone who is a huge fan of 'ls swaps. I will definitely follow the series in the progress of selling/ exchange the cars for more profit out of it. Keep up the good work ;)

Super cool series! This is why I love the channel. Thanks!

[@ndg49]

We once owned a 1993 300E 2.8 in blue-black metallic with the same gray lower trim & a gray interior. Fantastic color combo and it always received praise when it was clean and shiny. It saved our daughter's life once when she was hit from the rear on an I'state when she was stopped in traffic and a car hit her doing approx 50mph. She was uninjured and the car was repaired and looked great. Took about a week on a rig to stretch it back out. You should get no more than $15k for it. It's tough to market such a car as very few people would ever want it. Stick it on the site you've used before and had the C63 giveaway.

[@Linkanswe]

Polished my 300e in the same color spec a few years ago, the transformation is unbelievable🙌🏼 true mercedes quality in that age🙌🏼 great work

[@racerboy2212]

I keep watching the video over and over to take notes about all that's been done so I can give it to my mechanic for his info when he services it! So excited!!

[@kbVACArestatecarsnrvs]

I like the way you went with this Benz and fixed what I would have wanted to. Just maybe get the shifter swapped out for a more stock look and insulation under that newly fixed hood. That car is going to be grabbed very fast by the person whom will appreciate it and enjoy it with wanting something like that and couldn't find it.

[@stevelouie5928]

the gauges need to be returned to oem or if not possible, put in a digital dash.

[@SDcharge2k12]

​@@stevelouie5928nah that dash looks great compared to the old OEM that was meant for a diesel engine which would not work for this LS.

[@SDcharge2k12]

But I agree with the shifter needing to be swapped out, that things a monstrosity!

[@sinoverlord409]

Definitely had some barbarians working on this car if their only solution for the throttle body was to cut a hole 😂. I like the segment keep going with the trade up

[@05milmachine90]

I imagine they got it built, shut the hood with authority at the end of the project and then had a moment....

[@DanDan-yx6so]

This is a great transformation! I'd definitely be struggling to let this go, such a cool car😍

[@QuezlySnipes]

Next to hearing a manual car chirping gears... hearing an automatic transmission chirping gears is LEGITTTT!! Literally listened it like 20 times!!!! LOVEEEE THAT!!!

[@SDcharge2k12]

Love the car man it looks so much better than when you got it it's unbelievable! Definitely worth 15k or more but IMO you should take advantage of that built top end and turbo it! That set up with a turbo making 500+hp would be the ultimate sleeper and would easily be worth over 20k! Do it Alex!

[@Trapper50cal]

Replace the steering wheel...it's literally the item that interacts directly with the driver the most and dictates a lot of the driver's experience (along with the skinny pedal). A presentable steering wheel may just put you over the edge and into upward momentum trade value.

[@RA-dh1tb]

Agreed. If it also had the original shifter, or something not as ugly, it would add value. Also those gauges do not look good in this W124.

[@patrickclemente7701]

[@bbls1490]

Alex to be really honest you should really keep this one. you are very passionate on Mercedes and LS and this one land it on your lap. really keep it and you can do a whole series on rebuilding it the way you want to. that chassis is super clean in and out... please keep it bro you wont regretted and you can do the LS Twin turbo or supercharged

[@S2NAZ]

My dad had one of these when I was young back in Poland still beautiful car ! Sounds amazing with LS

[@evan242503]

This is a fantastic car. You literally made it look too easy. Anyone who thinks they can do better for 15k had better have been a trained Benz tech with great sponsors and a friend in the autobody business. Your Caprice videos came out about one month after I had bought one of them. Watching you checking boxes and ripping through the top end and exhaust was inspiring. When you threw a bottle in it as an afterthought I should have known better. Anyways my Caprice should be done sometime next week. haha
