Dave you dont have to justify why you are electrified your merc. It’s great seeing the progression and how you are fixing things that you weren’t wholly happy with in its first iliteration
So now... all you need is that preparation for "in case of emergency"... so hide a couple of solar panels somewhere so if you are in the middle of nowhere, you can EVENTUALLY get your batteries charged up. I guess one of those Jackery or Eco-Flow systems would work just as well... but it won't be fast -that's for sure. This was very well done the first time... but it just goes to show how quickly tech becomes obsolete so major improvements can be made. Very nice! I hope the owner is well pleased....
Hey Dave, anybody ever tell you that you sound a lot like Mr. Rogers?? If I close my eyes and just listen, it’s almost spooky! It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
Thanks for the analysis! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
You dont need to justify why you did the swap to your own car. It's yours and thats a good enough answer for the haters. Awesome build
Well said.
Other people can go buy their own car and restore it to factory if they want.
Nice one @Big-Wonka
I'm not at all an EV fan however it's things like this that got me changing my mind. This build is sick and the car looks so good!! Excellent work!!
Awesome job! David! Thanks for sharing!
As Tim the Toolman Taylor said, more power!!
Swapping regular cars to EV is really cool. I always wanted to add an electric motor to the rear and keep the 4 cylinder in front.
There is a company that offers in-wheel motor swaps to turn a 2-wheel drive car into 4-wheel drive.
I think this should be done to ALL non-perfomance classic cars. Keep these beauties on the road without the mechanical issues and pollution.
That’s the future of engine swaps man, good job!

Why would he ever be in the middle of nowhere?
the bigger pack and ccs is a game changer, now you got the power, range, fast charging all in steez. what more could ya ask for!
Dude it’s your ride, no need to explain why you do what you do. Either way I think it’s a sweet car 👍🏻
Good sh!t, I wonder if the naysayers are jealous and just don't want to convert over to the truth😮
I must say, along with all the cool tech and hard work, the color of that gold paint is awesome.
That is so cool, as always. Hope that all of the guys in the work shop have had a great Christmas, and have a happy new year.
This is one cool car.
great build love itty
Damn that car is so slick. Lookin so good :)

Savage Friday drop!

EV's dont turn my crank! Dino juice for ever! Nice work though wiring guru!

How is the 280se coming along
I thought the Tesla plug was the new and improved North American standard
I really like this car and can't wait for the next episode. Hopefully we get to see your new dash, too (at some point). All the best!
what is going on with W126?
Whats the avg cost for a retro mod EV build like this? Lots of variable for sure, but would be great info to share.
Time, tools and parts would exceed the cost of a new EV.
@@jxke Yeah, fair enough.

Continue to please us with such interesting videos! You are a real professional! 🧡💖
The worst part about these EV vids is the serious lack of burnouts. Gasoline Forever!
