Restoring Elegance : 1965 Mercedes-Benz W111 220SEb Full Restoration

[@billyporter2195]

Absolutely tremendous restoration but, why choose such a inappropriate colour scheme? I would far rather have seen it restored in the beautiful , and dignified, classic white. Only my opinion it’s still a work of art, albeit modern.

Just another example that you can't buy taste with money.

[@22pcirish]

@@citizaniac149It was done in America. Enough said.

[@23727bgk]

This project looks well done but if the color palate was not a factory choice, it was a huge waste of time and money....

[@hartmutschick4485]

wunderschönes Auto 👍

[@taxidude]

Probably about 5kg of the original vehicle left. Great job. You guys are magicians.

[@АртемЧижик-ц1л]

Отличная работа. Очень красиво. Хорошо, что есть комментарии и спокойная музыка. Получился просто шикарный Мерседес. Удачи в работе.

[@wolf-r7q]

not to under estimate your work, but when money is not a problem, then every thing is possible; i have a 1965 fintail w111 and i know how expensive the parts would add to. also please use the proper thumbnails other wise this would be misleading.

Kann ich das auch mal sehen, wenn es fertig ist? Einer von den schönsten Merc. 👏🥰

[@olafdietrich8235]

This is a classic car this Mercedes Benz W111 220SEb 1965 in the 20th century very historical.

[@renewalters4064]

Zekers, ben geboren 1965.toen werden een nog echte auto's gemaakt ❤❤.

[@neilhaas]

Mercedes Benz has a very long history of cars. All the SUVs the E class & GLE, GLA, B250,C300, all the 4matic AMG.

[@monastero]

For me, just a very bad colour choice!!! The car deserved more considerartion in this aspect. As a matter of fact, a very Beautiful masterpiece indeed.

[@RohakAbdul]

Nice and good job, i like it... 🙏👍🚘

[@renewalters4064]

Wow respect die kleur❤.

[@neilhaas]

Mercedes Benz the collection of stuff accessories, watches, caps, apparel.

[@williamsherer2580]

So sad that money sometimes does not bring good tast Yes it will stand out...but for all the wrong reasons

[@sand0077]

Nice restoration, meticulously performed but feel the ball was dropped with the color. Would rather have seen it in a factory color of the period.

[@truthray2885]

What a gorgeous car. And the colors - I love them. Not "workmanlike" drab, but instead brilliant, vivid and beautiful.

[@richardbell466]

Lovely restoration. I like a bit of green.

[@thomasprochaska5083]

nice paint colour, but outside green and inside green is too much green. Cognac brown would have been better!

[@briggsquantum]

A wonderful car, iconic and timeless. But that green.......is something that would appeal on a bubbletop Chevy in LA, but not on this classic. Against the orange-hued zebrano wood it is garish. Otherwise a skilled restoration at eye-watering cost no doubt.

[@hendrikdebruin4012]

Cost must be 1000x the price of the original? Normal people just cannot do this.

Este mismo lo vi en un desguace pero ambulancia en portugal

[@andersaxelsson2196]

Awsome

Horribel interior. Far from original spec!

[@markusneumann2173]

Without question a very professional restoration, especially the body work. But all the not original things like polished or gold painted engine parts, interior modifications and terrible, not original color ruin the whole thing to me. Now it's not an authentic restoration any more after all this work... I didn't finish the whole video because I don't wanna see this beautifully started restoration going into some "pimp my ride" custom car. What I saw was already enough. Why waste such a classic W111 for that and not take something else as the base? Would even be cheaper. Sorry, I just don't understand that. In Germany this would not even been considered a classic car anymore after all these mods. What a waste imho... Sorry

[@mauriciomartin9821]

The most horrible color they could hace chosen! Ver y ugly. They ruined it!!

[@suhayl5157]

I repeat. using a wrong thumbnail is not an honest mistake; keep you tube clean.

[@evangyfto7042]

Really nice work, meticulously performed but the colour choice is tremendously poor to say the least (i.e. horrendous), elegance vanished after that and you have really derogated all your excellent work. IMHO you should have picked a paint scheme for the original factory paint colour catalogue since it is a CLASSIC car.

[@tonykelly3513]

Why spend this effort on this car?
