First off, it's not a Maybach, it's a Taxicab with a 2 litre 4 cylinder economy engine. Second, a torque wrench is necessary to insure that things such as the connecting rods or main caps don't come loose. I give that engine about 200 miles before it's totaled by something coming loose and that is only if it driven at 30 mph or LESS. BTW, it's also not 50 years old, it's late 80-'s or later.

Somewhere in Germany. A retired Mercedes worker is watching this and having a seizure.

Love the way the pistons slid back into the cylinders without any pesky piston rings getting in the way... who needs compression anyway!

In Germany, you should probably get 6 to 8 years in prison for this - and one year extra for the paint.

I had a S650 Maybach super sports car just like this, paid about 2k for it back in the early 2000's, it was the 190E special taxi version. If this is 50 years old, I've just had my 130th birthday...

Надо поддержать автора. Годный контент. Пусть в следующий раз Боинг 747 реставрируют и взлетают на нём.

I laughed out loud watching this Benny Hill video. I learned that with a pair of tongs, a brush broom and a few blows of the hammer, you can get the Barbie doll's car with the usual high quality of Asian industry and an acute concern for ecology and recycling. Thank you for helping to save the world, your contribution is invaluable. 🤣🤣🤣

Pink exhaust... OK... Your painstaking attention to detail Your exquisite quest for perfection And your exemplary competence Has rendered me absolutely speechless. I feel like a mere mortal being exposed to aptitude I can only dream about. 😀👍

Отличная реставрация. Покрасил мотор с проводной и все что там было в один цвет. Провода покрасил, генератор с намоткой, аккумулятор покрасил, нужно было еще краской инжектор залить, коробку передач изнутри и ЭБУ тоже покрасить и все в один цвет

I cant get over the fact he literally spray painted everything lol

Best restoration ever!! The sound of the engine in the end, very smooooothhh🤣

Ни прокладок,ни колец на поршнях,ни вкладышей...вот это мастера😂😂😂!!!

На заводе Даймлер будут плакать посмотрев это видео. У меня был Mercedes С180 1995г. (111 - двигатель "плита", 202 кузов, ходовая от 124) - не убиваемый автомобиль. Как я только над ним не издевался, и он до сих пор ездит, но этот "ремонт" даже у меня вызвал слезу. Просто надругательство на прекрасным автомобилем.

It's not a restoration, it's just a movie, it's a miracle for this car to walk ...

ESTA MUY BIEN QUE LO QUIERAN RESTAURAR Y ES EL PRIMER MOTOR QUE ANDA SIN ABERLE COLOCADO LOS AROS DE LOS PISTONES ES UN MAGO EL RESTAURADOR SUERTE

Да! Да! Вот так во старые машины и доживают свою старость. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Это отличный конструктор для молодых мальчиков! Мальчик подрос и захотел поиграть со взрослой машинкой. 😂😂😂😂. Бедный старый мерседес, он попал короче. 😂😂😂😂😂. Бедная машина как жалко её. 😂😂😂😂

I don’t know what the hell I just watched😂😂 But I watched the whole thing in shock😂😂

It's nice to see how every bolt was torqued to its specifications.

You can still get parts for this model, no need to work like that. End of the Story: Car is painted and able to drive about 20Mph till it DIE completely 😂

A true legend! Many a restoration expert would swim a sea full of tacks just to be eclipsed by the shadow of his automotive restoration accomplishments.😂

Пипец. Такую реставрацию посмотрел и уже два дня уснуть не могу , в ужасе.

I never thought I'd see so much wrong done to a single car in my lifetime, and I've seen some pretty bad things. Congratulations, I couldn't do worse. And about that engine, I don't think you can make an engine run without any piston ring and with all that paint inside, so you probably got another one and put in there. But if by any means you made that engine run and move the car, I'm buying an old Mercedes tomorrow because that's probably the only thing we'll be able to drive after the machines take over.

Epic. A 50 year old Maybach restored with plaster and ..more plaster. I think the engineers from Germany could learn how to build and maintain proper Maybachs. I hope you can restore a 70 year old Audi R8 soon, since the model are very rare. Did you plaster the cylinder heads too?

YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING AND VERY TALENT AND KNOWING HOW TO RESTORE THE JUNK CAR TO RENEW AGAIN.

Very interesting video, fellas. I really enjoy restoration projects. However, in the future, make sure that when you stage your finds, there's no "green" grass under a car that's been sitting for years.

Зашибись! Это уровень! Ни разу не видел, чтобы уплотнители стекол зубилом и молотком демонтировали😂😂😂 да ещё и сидя на крыше авто🤦‍♂️

охренеть реставрация, потоптались по крыше и капоту, потом шпаклюют по ржавчине. высший пилотаж

Hey everyone, just watched this repair video from South Asia and gotta say, mad respect to these folks. Yeah, some of the repairs look off, but let's get real - they're doing the best with what they've got. It's super easy for people from ex-colonial powers to throw shade, but isn’t it a bit rich coming from countries that had a hand in messing up these places in the first place? We're talking centuries of countries like the Netherlands, France, Germany, and England just taking what they wanted and turning these places into colonies. That history left deep scars and challenges that these guys are still dealing with. So, this video? It's more than just repairs. It's about guts, skill, and dealing with a tough hand. To those from the colonial countries dropping negative comments: how about showing some respect for once? These guys deserve a like and, honestly, a silent donation to their channel would be the least you could do. Greetings from Russia

These cars are prepped to look rusty . Look at the interior , its flawless

I’ve learned such a lot here. When I think of all the time I’ve wasted in the past, bothering with things like masking up, checking torque settings etc. and investing in a decent tool set when I only needed a hammer. Got to admit I’d never thought of painting the big end journals and valve springs before. I’m also impressed how the red paint seems to change colour to pink. 🤪

This is actually 100 years old, well done finding and rescuing it

Now that’s what you call an engine wash 💯they painted the alternator and all the belt drivers 🤯

He paint the valve springs together. OMG. Master of restoration

I've never seen a flywheel ring gear repaired that way.☹️😂 I'm also wondering why Mercedes bother to use gaskets. It looks like a bit of grey paint sprayed on the mating surfaces gives a perfect seal. I don't know why they use rings on their pistons either. It's so much easier to fit the pistons without rings, they just slide right in, lol.

Everything in this video is outrageous, starting from the title. And for this no one can resist to watch it all and press like after. Genius.

I'm gonna use this video to bother my neighbours who play loud music in the middle of the night....just noise, hammering and no interaction with the viewers lol lol

Теперь я знаю, что новый масленный фильтр покупать не нужно. Просто покрась старый и он будет как новый)))) А прокладки в двигателе вообще не нужны))))

One of the scariest movies I’ve seen... you can’t use lawnmower techniques on a Mercedes!

He brushed the pistons teeth with a toothbrush 🪥 lmaoooo

Breaking glass with your toes out? That is badass.😂😂😂

Based on the fictional rebuild - the final shot of the car running must have been taken before the car was dismantled.

Я удивлён тому что они приехали на своей машине, ведь смотря на их мастерство «обслуживания» автомобиля, от их машины должно было остаться, ничего))

That hammer 🔨 is 🪄 magical 🧙

Мне кажется до реставрации машина лучше выглядела😂

Imagine my surprise when I saw all the Bondo going on. You might as well use rattle cans; you'd get a better result in your paint finish. This rebuild is akin to going down to Pep Boys, buying all the shiny plastic junk, and applying it to an 83 Chevy Chevette. My favorite part? When he took the time to scrape the gasket material from the bottom of the block, only to spray the open block with the crank in (51:06). Priceless!

That was painful to watch

A 50 year old S560 Maybach?? It‘s a real Miracle. Especially with a 4 cylinder motor

He washed the motor with a broom 🧹 🤣😂🤣😂 I can’t make this shit up lmaooo

Ведро шпакли прям по рже работают прямо как наши перекупы И даже описание такое же "пятидесятилетний Maybach"

An hour and 12 minutes of pure memes. Wow.

До реставрации этот Мерс стоял на мосту, но после такой реставрации ему место уже в речке...

He grinds gears better than my momma

Broken windows but no dust on the seats 😅

That's not seen 50 year old it's a 90s model. It looks like someone painted it with rust effect paint. Ever 600 I've driven had 12 cylinders.

Did my man just re-use a head gasket? 😂

Это просто капец какой то. Такой пахабной реставрации я ещё не видел. Кто нибудь объясните ему как надо ремонт движка производить

Never seen a bodge job like,looks like rolling death trap.

Досмотрел до конца😂 . Так и хочется сказать ,-а мне нравятся эти ребята)))ни каких шаблонов ! -Чем моете карб? -шваброй нах )))!!!

How come the wheels are so clean and rust free as apposed to the rest of the car?

I’m just here for the comments and they don’t disappoint 😂

I'm interested in knowing how the union between the hot oil and the paint is doing, also the painted pulleys vs the belt.

Не дай бог в такой "сервис" Попасть!😄😄😄

wow, that's incredible!

I didn't think it was possible to make a car you pulled out of a ditch worse, but I was wrong

I wonder if they took longer to sabotage it or longer to renovate it? 😂😂😂

If you think youre stupid, just remember that these guys exist

Зубья наварил, капец уровень 🙄... В Пакистане вообще коленвалы сломанные варят от тягачей и карьерных бульдозеров и ничего, лучше чем заводские... Шпаклю зря наносили, можно было валиком пройтись, грунт всё равно нет, заржавеет обратно

Watching for the comedic aspect. Nice rust removal and love the use of the belt sander just for starters!

Тот самый случай, когда мастер лучше бы, не подходил к машине. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

What the hell? I love 124s, and watching this will surely be my nightmare this night.

So that's how you tork the heads down to spec after you've painted you're valve springs. Noted 📝

He was in flip flops 🩴 lmaooo

Чо не так то!? Это оф.диллер в их деревне! Тачка охонь! Не бита, не крашена! Без пробега по РФ! Муха не сидела! :) Салон кожа! На маховике зуб наварили, цилиндр залудили, блок шваброй с фейри отмыли и покрасили снаружи и внутри! Я в восторге! Они просто гении! Распредвал не покрасили это конечно минус. Зато всё оригинал! За старание, однозначно высший балл! Не смогу это развидеть никогда!

I bet he really pissed that he forgot to spray the sides of the pistons!

clearly this dude has never heard of taping prep work . all those mating surfaces and inside the crank case are full of paint , the head , the oil pan , basically everything, the hoses , electrical, all paint . the alternator, waterpump, distributor cap, crank wheel , belt tensioner, this guy even painted the bushings and bearings inside and out . hoses , ufk didn't even miss the oil filter , the ignition coils , the starter wheel , man painted the clutch and plate , oh my Jesus. some German engineer somewhere is definitely saying we invaded the wrong country in 1939 . I swear I'm half way through this if he paints the ufkin tranny inside and out I'm gonna lose my shit

I've never seen a car being painted with filler, or an engine being painted on the inside

Looks like a magic hammer!!! It does everything!!!!

how can the piston just slip in - what happened to the rings??? Tightening the caps with a gun???

How can it be that rusty outside and kinda intact inside. Is it made up ?😮

I don't know if I need to cry 😢😢😢 or to laugh... 😂 😂 😂

Эталонная реставрация! Учитесь, моляры-жестянщики, это вам не по лазеру геометрию выводить. Красить? Нахера? Отличный жёлтый, пойдет под такси! А как искусно он работает кувалдой!? Снятие лобаша с последующей заменой торпеды 😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Somewhere in Germany. A retired Mercedes worker sees a 650 Maybach with 4 cylinders and collapses😂

Painted the car with the windows open , painted the door handles , painted all the black trimmings !! 🤦🏻‍♂️ he painted outside the lines as a kid in a coloring book and still does today 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

мастера от бога)) Кровь из глаз

I must say, comedy doesn’t get much better than that. All that’s missing is Benny Hill to arrive and the music to start. Sweet mother of all that is good, what have I just done. I have just wasted one whole hour on what must be meant as a long and elaborate joke. My favourite part was the welding and grinding of the cog. Aaarrrrggghhhh…..

Legend says at the end he dumped it back in the channel for 50 more years

Даже трамблерс бронепроводами покрасил!!! Вот молодец!!!😂😂😂😂

And the paint over paint spray works as a oil pan gasket too.

Ah the limited Maybach S650 Polyfiller edition with...optional extra bright pink crash bar 👌

Not a torque wrench in sight. Perfect!

Пакистанцы нервно курят глядя на этот ремонт мерседеса!!!

Как он ловко поршни вставил, и вкладыши шатунные старые оставил, только отмыл, жесть

Мне он напомнил....енот полоскун.... Тот тоже все все в речке моет 🤣🤣

Who knew? When you paint a hose/wire/casting/alternator/oil filter...... it makes them brand new!

I get making due with what you got. I wish he wouldve atleast used tubes of gasket seal after he rebuilt that motor and trans that things going to leak oil like crazy...

I see a lot of arrogant comments about Germany and its industry, but what these guys from East Asia did makes the most skilled Mercedes engineers take my hat off to them... How did they breathe life into that car? I am certain that if this car had been found in Germany in the same condition, the workers would have given a thousand excuses for the futility of this project.

God damn lol. My local scrapyard would be ashamed to have this. The literal definition of bondo buggy was demonstrated in this video

I have one word: OIL ⛽ Ohh, I have another one: GASKET 🔗 Ohh no, I have one more: TORQUE ⚙️ I laughed the whole video, but in a strange way 😳 I’ve never seen something like this, really 😂😂

Not 50 years old, Not an S650 and not a Maybach 😂😂😂 It’s a 1989 Mercedes 190e with a 1997cc 4 cylinder (M102) engine, (1990 onwards had a bigger filter over the carb), this was the smallest engine Mercedes put in this car 😂😂😂

Painting the greasy gearbox was my favourite part.
