Wow, what a treat to eyes, looks clean and very well maintained. Just for the record how many Kms has it done?

Wish you many more years and many more miles with this beauty.

dude!! thats awesome!
i am not actually a fan of classics but this ride is sweet!

Ripper · 9th October 2011, 15:41

WOW! thats a lovely ride you have there.
Loved the interiors, Is it Art leather or OE leather? keeping the beige clean is a task though. New license plates like the HSRP ones would complete the picture.
Good Job!

Superb restoration job and congrats! Left side headlamp is looking cloudy however.

Who did the paint job if you can share?

akshay4587 · 9th October 2011, 16:55

Great Restoration please tell me who did it

Thanks

ashis89 · 9th October 2011, 17:38

Now that is a classic at its best. As a tbhpian's mom once said- This is called a REAL Mercedes.
Hats off to you for such a wonderful restoration.

Lalvaz · 9th October 2011, 17:49

Amazing beauty, love the way she's been restored. Looks like a brand new baby.

vasanthn21 · 9th October 2011, 20:42

Very good restoration job. Looks classy!

You could have made the thread more interesting by posting the before pics first, the work-in-progress pics later and the final outcome in the end. Hope you don't mind me suggesting so!

Great work G1_Gold, looks better than new, wish to see some under bonnet pics too, please.

musicmanaman · 9th October 2011, 20:57

Wow what a restoration, the back left hand side tyre looks to be tillted inwards, and is that the way back seats always came, seems lacking underthigh support a bit, but all in all what a good looking car, simply fantastic. Congrats.

seedyk · 9th October 2011, 21:27

Superb restoration looks almost out of the show room . So who did the resto if we may ask?

Lovely colour job as well. The beige Seats with Black exterior are a perfect combo.
