Over 50% Of This Mercedes Frame Had To Be Rebuilt

Sandblasting exposed the true condition of the frame... and it was much worse than expected. What started as a rust repair quickly turned into a full frame rebuild. By the end of this stage, more than half of the original structure had been replaced with new steel. Not everything went according to plan, but that's part of restoring a 40-year-old Mercedes. Every mistake became another lesson. The project is finally starting to resemble a solid foundation again. If you enjoy honest restorations, fabrication and engineering challenges, you're in the right place.
