I helped work on my first Mercedes in 1972 pulling a cylinder head off a 280SL. Professionally… I have been working on Mercedes-Benz since 1977. That beginning was working at an independent repair shop specializing on Mercedes-Benz only. That provided repairs on what was then, older Mercedes. 1950’s and 1960’s was regular. In 1980, I went to the Mercedes dealership where I worked on 1970’s up through current 1980’s models. I went independent in 1984. Decades have gone by and now.  What was once upon a time, daily or regular car models to work on, are now Classics and people want them fixed up back like they were. To me, this is a windfall, because I have found that I love working on the older Mercedes. Finding real brass and copper fittings, I love polishing them up to display these materials. Detail is everywhere on these and I love it. I have first hand experience doing engine overhauls on:

  • M100 – 600 Limo, Pullman, 6.3 & 6.9
  • M110 – M116 – M117 – M119 – M127 – M129 – M130 – M186
  • M615 – M616 – M617 – M601 – M602 – M603
  • M102 – M103 – M104
