Still have it! It runs great, but needs a little rustfix (not much) and a fresh paintjob. I hope this will be done during spring, so it's ready for summer. This yellow car has been parted out, there was to much to do when we started to "dig" in it.
Great!, I have a W116 (280-S) in Milan Brown that I'm restoring. Mechanically is a champ with the exception of the AC that needs work. Although the paint is not that bad it has lots of dings so I'd love to repaint it soon. The W116s are great looking cars, but I'm in love with the W123s as well, too bad here in Ecuador are all gone. Keep up the good work and keep postings coming.
Archives Schelling Sounds like a nice car - and the color is cool! I have another gold one as well in pretty good shape - but needs AC work and a litte rust in the floorbards. Always something with these old cars, but they look great and are fun to drive - so different from todays cars :-)
Leaking gastank a small thing!! wtf., i think there must be alot serious rust there, the repair of the rightrearfender is really bad, the Original shape is gone
Cool! The interior color is very different, I’ve never seen that shade of brown in a car interior before.
My first Mercedes was also 1977 SE280, what a ride.
Hej Peter såg att du driver egen lackfirma har en w116 som skulle behövas lite lack och delar
Hola !! tengo tres Mercedes un 240D un 300 turbo D y un 280 modelo77, mi problema es que se me dificulta mucho encontrar refacciones
Sie können dieses Auto auch als 1/18 die-cast finden. Grüsse nach Deutschland

@@Oedegaarde hello, how is the blue one doing now?

The car has now been parted out, so yes - too much work to make it worth fixing. I have lots of good parts for my blue W116 instead.
