    What did you think of this car? Pretty sweet piece of history right?! Make sure to like & subscribe because we have some CRAZY stuff coming SOON!
  • @tonycomer1415
    You reaaly need to update us on what happens with these cars. This girl is a classic.
  • @frankwyant7175
    In my book, this is the BEST car that you’ve ever shown My dream car, for sure
  • @steviesaidso
    You dudes killed it on this one. I’ve been watching your videos for almost a year now. Always love the attention you give these weird forgotten gems. Much love from Detroit!
  • @bicyclist2
    This is a diplomatic embassy car. This is a 60's era CEO's car. This is a high government officials car. This is absolutely pure class. This would have been parked in front of some very expensive hotels, or mansions in the day. Very beautiful. This is the embodiment of the old adage, "They don't make them like they used to". Thank you.
  • @jebsails2837
    For the Mercedes purist, you may want to change the title of the video to ...300d!. In the parlance of the M-B lineup at the time the upper case (D) indicated diesel power. While the lower case designated a model variant. Great job. Narragansett Bay
  • @michaelmerta8956
    The quality of craftsman assembling that Mercedes was unmatched.
  • As a detail shop owner. I'm very jealous of the cars you get to work on brothers. But keep doing y'all's thing. Much love from Puerto Rico y'all! Viva la WD Detailing!
  • I have subscribed for a few years and really enjoy your new format. Brent was always more vocal but having RJ talk and joke around too adds a lot to the video. Keep it up. I look forward to Saturday morning.
  • @rogerb5615
    I worked for Mercedes-Benz Canada during the early 1970s. The side windows on your 300 were removable so that "royalty" or politicians in the rear seat could see and be seen by the masses on the sidewalk. We sold and maintained a model 600, the "Grosser Mercedes", prized possession of the manufacturer of the Ski-Doo snowmobile. It was even longer and more imposing than your 300, with beautiful but understated interior trim. Its pneumatic suspension suffered in cold Canadian winters, and that fact led to this particular car spending its winters indoors.
  • In Germany this car is commonly referred to as the "Adenauer-Mercedes" as this was Konrad Adenauer's, our first Bundeskanzler, first state limousine. Adenauer asked Mecedes later for a car with an extended chassis and a sliding roof.
  • @Mercury0369
    You guy's really know how to bring a car back to life ! We need more men like you !
  • @ericwhite5290
    What an amazing job for an amazing car. Love how you understand how to preserve the paint and blended the newer and original paint. I’m very partial to the classic Mercedes cars with the beautiful lines and details. You guys always do an incredible job.
  • This Mercedes became famous because various German Statesman used them, there was one of them Mr. Konrad Adenauer who choose this particular model for many years and this car in the Mercedes Collectors World named it the Mercedes Adenauer. Congratulations, excellent discovery.
  • @OsbornTramain
    I had a toy of this when I was a kid.....I love these cars......there was one that a person owned in my town in the early 70's.......it was always very cool to see it in motion.
  • @1492chris
    I've been restoring cars since the 1960's. Great workmanship guys, you are carrying on a long tradition of doing this sort of thing for love, not money.
  • @MoneyFIC
    Gentleman, got to say i love these videos. Never thought watching a car (no matter how amazing) get washed would be so relaxing but this feels like therapy. Great work, great videos. Thank you. Can't wait for the next one.
