Mercedes park brake and foot brake removal and restoration

This is a short video showing how to remove and restore the foot brake (park brake) mechanism in an early R107 Mercedes SL.
It transpires that left hand drive 107sl's came with a footbrake, whereas the right hand drive models came with a standard handbrake.

Mike, I think it's not the age of R107 to have a foot or hand brake mechanics...it depends on if your car is LHD (foot brake) or RHD (hand brake)...

Wow...I didn't know that! The beauty of a KZbin channel is the shared/combined knowledge of all the viewers. Thanks. Mike
