      The one doing the job, deserves the money. When you clean and boost the selling process you are just making the sell faster and may be a couple bucks which will never pay your working time. Larry is cleaning (doing his main job basically ) and finding cars that are way bellow their market value so the profit he makes can actually pay part of his work, but he also is creating content for us and memories for himself. He also will never have a problem with selling a car since he have so much fans and “influence”.

    This is one of my favourite Mercedes-Benz models ever!
    The W140 - with the W124 and W201 - chassis were the last of a dying breed of over-engineered vehicles.
    This specific model, the S600 V12, was the higher-end of this chassis, so all the best available at that time was through in.
    I am very glad to see you preserve a unit of this amazing car!
    I cleaned many times my father's W201, and I remember loving seeing a clean rim - which was pretty much similar to those ones you cleaned.
    Cheers Larry!

Paint's gotta be cool, clean, and can't let the product dry. Also, gotta keep the pad clean. Made lots of cash fixing swirls over the years, especially on darker cars, blacks, dark blues, etc.

    In 2004, I saw a 1993 600 SEL (that was before the nomenclature revision) for sale at $9,500. I enquired about the "low price". It turned out that the car was mostly in good shape other than the malfunctioned HVAC system. I knew that fixing the HVAC system would require taking the dashboard apart to replace some components. The repair bill would be easily $10,000 or so due to labour cost and expensive parts. The 600 SEL parked at the forecourt for a several more months with a few price reduction before it was hauled away to the auction.

    I picked up a 1992 600SEL/S600 in a nearly identical scenario. It had sat in a garage for 5 years when the owner got sick, eventually he passed and the family put the car up for sale. It was in pretty good condition and needed some work to get it running but nothing crazy. It's currently running well but having transmission problems.

      I must disagree
      The W126 has way more presence and class in my opinion.
      I never like the W140. To me it always looked way too bloated.
      A big step forward technologically and mechanically but the rest, no.
