  • 1970 Mercedes Benz 280SE 3.5 Coupe W111 Restoration Project
    This 280SE/9 3.5 Cp was brought to John Haynes for appraisal and although in fair condition the owner wished for a full restoration to be carried out. John Haynes timeline for restoration on this vehicle was 12 months. All parts were pre purchased and held on reserve to ensure no price increases from date of the agreed estimate and of course ensuring the availability of all parts when commencing the restoration.
    This particular vehicle benefitted from being very solid and fairly corrosion free which is a great platform to allow you to work with original panels.
    The restoration flowed well and all body work was carried out in sync with the chrome work, trim work and wood work being prepared for the overall re-assembly.
    The vehicles whole running gear was overhauled to ensure mechanically the vehicle was 100% fault free.
    As well as all mechanical items we carried out the fitment of Behr Air-Conditioning which is something we can fit to exacting specifications.
    The conclusion of this restoration presented a superb example of an extremely desirable model of classic period Mercedes-Benz.

    Sheer class and timeless elegance! I'd take this over a modern day Maybach any day! I don't think Mercedes could have done a better restoration, this is better than factory, well done guys!

    What in the world could the value in $$ be in this restoration job?? Having worked on these cars decades ago, there is a staggering amount of materials and labor required to accomplish the task shown in this video producing this absolutely magnificent result. Just the facilities to perform this level of work must be tantamount to a factory. Those who are doing such work shown here display a most admirable, "old-school" pride, and craftsmanship. Great work, folks!!

    An excellent example of an automobile built during the era of “ forever” cars at Mercedes’ Benz. It was designed so it could be taken apart and put back together. It was meant to last the lifetime of the owner and then get passed on to the next owner. I just watched a video on the new Benzes and I wonder how many of them will be worth restoring 50 years from now.
