Part 1:    • Fixing Up An Old DieselPowered Mercedes  
A second round of repairs for this 1975 Mercedes 240D. My friend's been putting some miles on this car now after I demoused it in the last video. It's time to fix a few more things, like replace all the brakes and some steering components, plus a couple other items. I also included some maintenance on the 1986 325 BMW, belonging to the same owner as the Chevy Blazer I featured quite a while ago. Also, I moved halfway through this video, so that's why you may notice a change of scenery towards the end.
