This Beat Up Mercedes Needed My Help - GREEN MISTRESS

Today we're restoring a Hot Wheels Redline Mercedes 280 SL that means a little more to me than most. Years ago I owned a green 280 SL that never made it onto the channel because I couldn't find a replacement hood. When that car left my collection, I always regretted it. Thanks to a Redline sent in by Chris, I finally get the chance to build that car again. After multiple rounds of zinc plating, polishing, paint work, and factory-correct detailing, this little Mercedes gets a second chance and ends up looking exactly the way I remembered it. 0:06 – Restoring a Hot Wheels Redline Mercedes 280 SL 0:57 – Recreating the Green Mercedes From My Collection 2:20 – Stripping the Body Documentary Style 3:17 – Fixing Oxidation and Preparing for Zinc Plating 4:59 – Multiple Zinc Plating Sessions to Save the Body 6:34 – Final Sanding, Polishing and Fresh Zinc 8:17 – Restoring the Base and Factory Tail Lights 10:00 – Final Green Mercedes 280 SL Reveal FOLLOW THE ADVENTURES 🎥 Northern Gold (Prospecting Channel) YouTube: @NGProspecting 📍 Northern Gold Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?... 🚗 Diecast Resurrection Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?... #hotwheels #hotwheelscustoms #diecast #diecastcars #customdiecast
