UNKNOWN BRABUS WORKSHOP: From barn find to style icon - 280 SL Pagoda is restored | WELT Documentary

Video Description

A wrecked Mercedes that is more than 50 years old is rusting away in a shed. For some it is pure scrap, but for other classic car fans it is a true treasure with a guaranteed top price. The headquarters of the world's largest vehicle tuner, Brabus, is located in Bottrop in the heart of the Ruhr region in Germany. Here, old Mercedes stars gain a new shine. The restoration professionals' masterpiece is the 280 SL, also known as the Pagoda. From the body to the engine block, from the smallest seam to the last washer, everything about the Pagoda is refurbished. Getting these automotive icons back on the road takes several thousand hours of work. Every Pagoda that leaves the halls is a classic car with new-car character - 60 years old with zero mileage. This six-star luxury restoration is unique in the world. #documentary #barnfind #brabus 📺 Watch more documentaries https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-5sURDcN_Zl8hBqkvZ6uXFpP3t55HU9s 🔔 Subscribe to our full documentary channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBAeFXaLV1ZqKqc-Uf3pKaA?sub_confirmation=1
