You can tell a lot about person by how he treats the older folks in their lives. More than anything you've done, this really impressed me. Looking at the comments below, it's obvious she has quite the fan base already. Keep up the good work, and thank you.

    If you want a beast Benz from that era buy a 1986-89 560SL (V8 5.6 liter) and install Euro lights and Euro bumpers. Leave everything else stock (except perhaps the turd brake light on the trunk of the 86/87 years). Beast of an engine, ABS brakes, airbags, central locking etc with the cool chassis designed in the late 60s.

    • @spoonified52
      @spoonified52 6 років тому +2

      Having owned several grey market Mercedes from the 70's and 80's the headlights were swapped with U.S. spec versions when imported. Also in many cases the park bench bumpers were also added. Though some importers were able to get away with welding a reinforcement plate onto the back of the european spec bumpers. Catalytic converters were also installed for post 1974 models as well on grey market cars when imported.
      What throws me off is the U.S. spec MB Tex interior instead of the velour upholstery. I believe it was an option on european models but very rare.

    Cherish grandma, write down her stories, family history and recipes. My grandma just passed away unexpectedly, and while I had visited her that day, there is so much I wish I could have done.

    I rarely comment, which probably makes me a bad subscriber... that said, I love that you took grandma out for a ride. I miss mine terribly. I’m loving your videos, keep them coming.

    I know I'm in the vast minority, but I prefer the look of the US spec cars. I just think the Euro ones kind of lacked character.

    This is so sweet! I wish my grandmother was still with us. I took her for a ride to the store in my 85 Mustang GT once. She actually loved the power and kept telling me to go faster. She complained about how low it was to the ground however.

    Tyler, I have the same story! My first car was a 560SL that belonged to my Grandma. She bought it when I was 17. I still have it and hope to keep it forever. It's 2.5 inches lower now with BBS wheels and looks and drives better than ever. Maybe you'll see it on the road someday.

    Very cool of you to treat grandma for a ride in her old car and some really good crooner music. You are a nice guy to spend time with her. It is a shame her elastic band was probably older then her car and about the same age as Fly me to the moon. But you gotta love her. Very sweet lady. :) My mom is the same way. It's never too old to keep.

    AMAZING to see you take the time with your grandmother...When I first started watching your video that popped up for some reason, I thought "O great, another spoiled rich kid talking about his parents money & cars", but after watching the entire video I saw a guy who was informative & genuine. Spend as much time with your grandmother & ASK HER SO MANY QUESTIONS about your family NOW because I lost all my grandparents back in the early 90's & wish they were still around. The older people really had to work for a living unlike many of today who complain & get free government money and are fine with it. I'll sub.

    Back in my bachelor days (~1992) I bought a used 1985 380SL, dark navy blue with tan MB Tex interior. Loved that car. Watching your video makes me want to find another one (or a 560SL in signal red....) Great video!
