How do you guys see my car after the restoration, is it amazing, please leave your comments

For everyone who doesn't realise what they do- this is in reverse- they film a fairly decent car, throw a bit of paint over it to try to make it look good, then actually destroy the car, pour acid on the paint to get the rust going, probably pour petrol on the body and light it too so it looks like it's been in a fire but the engine and interior are all fine, smash the windows, put trash in it- let it sit for a few months etc. Then present bit's and bob's of a 'restoration'. But think about it, the interior, the wiring loom, all the electrics - all that which is destroyed. Where do they get the new parts from? They don't. That's why it cuts to putting the seats back in. That's why the paint looks dull and rough on the 'finished' car, because it's filmed before they wreck it. Look at the tail lights- full of dirt, no reverse lights, it runs like a banger. You see dents on the door etc. Just pure fakery to get views.

Car is rusted but yet has a double fin head unit near intact. The seats don't have mold on them the carpet is in good condition. Yea. Looks staged to me.

Amazing restoration and this is proof that old benz quality is over engineer

What an amazing job. Basic equipment used and a splendid result. Mercedes should give him an award and a new car. He proved their products are timeless.

Love it how the plastic bumpers were rusty lol :)

It starts so well : we watch with amazement at the incredibly hard work involved stripping down the old Merc. And then after one door panel is carefully restored and painted in the workshop, the wonder all falls apart: it becomes quite impossible to the point that any intelligent person knows the whole show is a fake. Absolutely no showing of the replacement of engine and gearbox and wiring loom etc. etc. While admiring the industry displayed I think all viewers have a right to feel thoroughly cheated. But with 6.3 million views I should think the perpetrators of this fraudulant video are laughing all the way to the bank!

I'm impressed that you did all that on flip flops!!! I can't even mop in those!!!!

Unbelievable job. Very talented bringing back to life a dormant piece of gem. No one car do this but you guys. Thank you so so much for sharing this. God bless you talented guys. Please do more and post for the world to see. Very entertaining

Basically, you took this nice car, destroyed it, presented the whole process in reverse with some tweaking, and made everyone believe that you've restored it... and UKposts is ok with that. Very Nice!

There seem to be a few steps missing between sanding the bare frame and driving away ...

Не бита, не крашена, без шпакла и подкрасов, ездил дедушка по праздникам в магазин, гаражное хранения.

Love these videos in which old dumped car brought back to life,I am a car lover myself and I have two new model cars and one 20 years old,I love my old car more then new ones coz it’s heavier then the new ones it has more road grip then new ones even when the belong to same company just deferent model.

looks like one of those objects purposely left to rot so it makes the restoration looks more wow...

😲😲😲 wow amazing the old Mercedes Benz can restore even one person only it's very amazing and exciting to watch the next vedio thank you for sharing this video

I'm guessing the car we see in the end as the "finished" vehicle is actually the starting point. It runs and drives, has a 15-footer paintjob, generally complete. They disassemble it a little, and then reassemble it at the dingy roadside location to get some footage of the "final assembly". Then they trash it. Bust the windows, glass, and lights, pour paint stripper on the exterior, run it into a wall, etc. Come back a few weeks later when nature has taken it's toll, and film the "discovery" and teardown footage. Haul the husk off to your buddy's shop, and get some bodywork practice. Grinding off some surface rust, pounding out a few roof dents, painting a single door and wet sanding and polishing it until you can see yourself in the reflection (but also leave the door handle on there so it will get painted shut and make it entirely unusable). Edit the footage to make it look like you restored it to the "before" condition. Get 7 million views. Things we didn't see: Any engine work whatsoever, after literally ripping out everything necessary for it to run Any glass work, despite windshield having some old peeling stickers on it in "after" video. The car being returned to the dingy roadside location. Painting or reassembly of any panels besides door. Anything happening in real time, which might make it easier to identify cuts or reversed clips. I would love for this to be totally real, but there is too much that doesn't add up, in just the wrong way.

The very last of the true Mercedes look how elegant and reliable, imagine trying to fix a modern day Mercedes with only basic tools.

amazing how it all came apart inside without needing to unscrew it all.

13:14 You can see the angle grinder marks made to pour the acid on bare metal...

The celebration of Bondo that I just witnessed as part of this video was exceptionally heartwarming. It validates my complete fabrication of the rear wheel arch of my 1974 Chevy Camaro out of Bondo. I knew back then that I was onto something and here we have it before our eyes!

You have to appreciate this for what it is. A bunch of guys from Southeast Asia have a rusted hulk of a Benz that probably is worth less than a $100 to a junkyard. They ask themselves, “How can we turn this into a profit opportunity?” They hit upon the idea of faking a disassembly and restoration that would be filmed for UKposts, garner millions of views, and earning them ad money. Not the mechanical skill level to take apart and assemble a Benz with a little toolkit, but still entrepreneurial skill that has to be applauded. Making the most of what you’ve got at hand.

вот мне всегда было интересно, как долго должна тачка стоять, чтобы даже бампера пластиковые ржаветь начали?

the rest of the car looks rusty and old but the seats aged so well

Vietnam's people is full of surpised! Huge love for our people

как странно, прокатился по таким узким улочкам с такой скоростью и ни кого не сбил, респект)

И потом на Авито такой "Не бит, не крашен, в ДТП не участвовал, 1 владелец, гаражное хранение" 🤣🤣

I like how the front seat still had mold on it after they "restored" it.

@ 1:40 Unfortunately I have to mention that the level of corrosion corresponds to a *staged* situation. In other words: A lot of help was given to get this *extreme corrosion* on the outside of the body. I'm not stupid: A Mercedes-Benz "W 201" may start to rust a little over the years, but you only get the rust that can be admired in the video if the paint has been deliberately *sanded off* ! And if you look closely, you can also see that the original paint was removed with a *power tool* !

Xem tây nó làm mà học hỏi về phần gia cố lại khung và các phần sắt bị mọt, họ cắt ra rồi vá lại như zin, đằng này a em làm kiểu chắp vá bằng mấy miếng sắt gò vội trông phát khiếp.. ủng hộ anh em và tán dương về công sức phục hồi, nhưng đã làm thì làm cho đẹp và chuyên nghiệp.... Chúc a e thành công hơn nữa.

Самое интересное в этой недореставрации это то что ни один болтик или шпилька не обломались в процессе

Amazing the plastic bumper rusted into the same exact color as the rest of the body

ملكة الطريق صراحة ولقد كانت مكونات هيكل السياره كله حديد وفولاذ اما الان تحس انك راكب على مادة البلاستيك مقواة وبداخلها محرك وحشي

Amazing. What some hard work can pull off. Its really just work. With the time and resources this can be done by anyone who really wants to and applies themselves.

Nice rusting job, i imagine the time you spent to sand all the car for removing all the paint

Impressed with what they accomplished. Imagine if they had access to a sandblaster, safety googles, impact wrench, and work boots. I cringed with some of the welding practices. Really, amazed with outcome with limited resources. Cheers.

This guy sure knows what he's doing. I have 4 190e s one of which is gonna need some renovating sometime soon

Очень правдоподобно, заржавели даже пластиковые бампера и накладки по низу дверей)

Конечно выполнено много работы. Но ребята не надо обманывать людей. Лайк за проделанную работу. Коврики Эва выпускаются не так давно, магнитолу давно сняли бы, метал салона в идеальном состоянии, демонтаж монтаж торпедки - на чем оно держится.

Похоже на постановочное видео детали которые по внешнему виду мерина должны быль струхнуть очень даже живые особенно солон и неукраденые магнитофоны.

Hard-work never fail you and your team done a great job 👏👏👏👏👏👏

من الجيد أنك اخترت لونا داكنا لهذه السيارة فهي أيقونة فاخرة من مرسيدس في حقبة الثمانينات وحتى عام 1995

я нервничал от таких дорог , едет кто как хочет , люди на дороге, по середине проезжей части то куча песка, то кирпичи , проехать по встречке милое дело . я прям понервничал

I have been restoring cars for a great part of my life. Incredible how easily people are tricked today…. And I am not talking about cars restoration….

17 years ago, I bought used a 1985 190E in Hyannis, Ma. It had 160K , it had been garaged life long in Chatham on Cape Cod. It was a special order car from Mercedes Benz of Hyannis. Somebody with ton of money ordered this car special. I don't have previous owner info. All options from Germany were incorporated in this car including the rare body color, a light metallic gold, a burgundy red interior. No rust, no dents, mint interior! The 4 cylinder burned oil executively, so bad so, I had to keep replacing spark plugs every 1000 miles in order stay firing on all 4. This car , in spite of a need for engine overhaul, was a great driving experience....Later, I drove for 3 years the 1987 300D, the fastest production diesel in 1986-87, a 6 cylinder turbo, produced from MB in 126 and 124 cars, only 2 years .

With simple tools you have done a great job , but then you scare us to death with your crazy test drive between the villages and the walking people..

Love how the plastic bumpers and trim were covered in rust 😂😂😂

Very impressive! I would have not expected that it was done in Vietnam 28:38.

The fact that they got all the time in the world to restore a whole car...is impressive

There isn't enough debris under or around the car for it to have been at that location very long. Also judging by the homes in the area it would be amazing for them to allow the car to sit there for any period of time.

37:13 Wow! Restored the old sticker also! Great work!

You are an amazing craftsman. I was so much enjoying the process. You drive like a maniac, which is entertaining too.

amazing skill, to a car lover a person who can restore rusty or abandoned car is precious ❤️

No way I would touch a car restored like this.

They even restore the windscreen and all the stickers on it 😂😂😂

Your driving is insane. But awesome restoration. 👌

This dude really welded without a face shield. Props.

Car looks very good. You should make 3 videos of this entire restoration, please include the engine rebuild and more. 45minutes x 3 videos.

A correction: no restoration, yes trickery

This is the best video I have ever seen on UKposts. Absolutely awesome

Holy crap! These guys just might be some kind of restoration whisperers. I mean I was a little puzzled why the seats weren't cleaned but wow, that thing looked like it was ready for the crusher. No hesitation, just dug right in and made, if not perfect, a presentable car and with a lot of pretty basic tools. Unreal.

So that's what the guy who builds pools in the middle of the forest does in his spare time! 😄

33:51 did you see how quickly the rust came back - crazy

The tyres had just enough air to go on the recovery truck, none of the wheels sized looks staged, but still a great work

crazy driver OMFG !!!real craftman !! amazing job !!!

For a car with no glass the interior looks amazing 😉

Жестянка, шпаклёвка вообще на высоте :)

Wow, no air hose, air tools, electric wrenches, help, eyewear, boots, glue guns, pressure washers, sanders, car lifts, jacks, vacumes cleaners, etc. And in flip-flops and shorts. This is why Asian carmakers such as Honda and Toyota are Amazing.

I don't get how the main body is nearly 100% covered in rust yet the interior seems pretty much intact..

It's actually pretty slow, they just added the sound of a super car and sped up the video to make it look fast

Me after first minute: this is fake. After reading the comments: Yup, its fake.

Hello! Really like your video, and the full on removing EVERYTHING from the car so much easier to work on and replace parts. I know I'm late to this video but if you can please discuss how you keep track of removed small bits to be used again. I go overboard on a tracking system I use, color and numbered parts bags. And please, are you self thought or professional training? Thanks bro, great job!

It’s amazing! I see rust but all metal details don’t have holes on it. The floor is perfect, interior is like new but a little bit dirty. Sorry for my English, I hope you’ll understand what I mean)))

I love seeing these videos but at times I have to speed forward. Some videos do help me with projects around the house though. It’s amazing what you guys can do with such a car and skill you all have. I’m impressed.

Amazing restoration! They even replicated the stickers that were on the broken windscreen!. Or did they just kill a 190, that's not 40 years old, in the process of the reverse restoration....

I actually reminisce to a time where I would have thought a baby benz was a supercar. The hedonic treadmill is real.

You gave this merc a second chance at life, haha, nice work!

The most hilarious part of this "restoration" is that he wore a mask outside by himself while taking it apart then drove like he did on the scariest streets in the world. I love it

Мерседес в хорошем состоянии, просто сняли краску хорошим растворителем и подождал пока поржавеет, для виду . Всеравно молодцы

the paintwork at the front door is much better then the paint of a new US-Car ;-)

This is one of the best Merc ever made

He spent more time smoothing out the driver's door than he took dismantling the whole car!

Я далёк от покраски и всего остального, но думаю что при грунтовке и покраски дверную ручку надо было снимать🤔

These guys are amazing! I just love how well they can make everything look brand spanking new! I’m very impressed. I started watching the motorcycles restoration last week and I’m hooked!

amazing job restoring that car your talents are holly crap friggin love this s

Amazing how all the windows are broken out, the entire body is destroyed with holes and rust, yet there's no rips in the interior and no rust inside the car and the engine is all intact including a battery! Where's the footage showing the actual restoration, not just some dudes doing body work? Like fixing the wiring, the motor, the hundreds of electrical issues, installing all new glass and headlights and taillights etc? I don't know what's going on in this video but it sure isn't a car restoration. Also for future fake vids, here's a pro tip: Seats and the dash parts like stereo need to be bolted down, you don't just set them in place.

The guys must have photographic memory, taking everything apart without labelling which part goes where, which bolt goes into which hole, and get them all back together again!

This made me feel better about my comparatively trivial Merc issues.

It takes a special kind of vision and patience to restore a car in THAT condition. Because had this been in the States, that car would’ve been in the junk yard by now.

Idk what’s more amazing, the fact that he did this all on some random ass street and not in a garage or remembering all the bolts he unscrewed putting them back accordingly

Bit worried about the welding , shouldn’t weld over top , always cut out .

It's a difficult work more than a first made in Germany 🇩🇪 good luck from aplestinian ❤

u have some amazing talent this is crazy i can't imagine

He just destroyed his car and recorded the end before it😂👌

Oogghhh... My life needs that kind of a restoration :D

Just imagine this guy in a body shop with the tools wow wow incredible

CONGRATULATION. My FAVORITE car 190s.my THIRD car,190e sport line,1993.

This is reversed, look at the windshield stickers (4:21) from when it was cracked and after they "restored" it (41:17). They're the same.

First var i see that only “ rust” at the outside, not inside! Unique!

At least the Benz appears to work

nice work, reallu amazing! But this car would have been scrapped a long time ago in europe. What happened to the paint? Why not remove the door handles and Antenna before sanding? But still amazing work!
