The one doing the job, deserves the money. When you clean and boost the selling process you are just making the sell faster and may be a couple bucks which will never pay your working time. Larry is cleaning (doing his main job basically ) and finding cars that are way bellow their market value so the profit he makes can actually pay part of his work, but he also is creating content for us and memories for himself. He also will never have a problem with selling a car since he have so much fans and “influence”.

This is one of my favourite Mercedes-Benz models ever! The W140 - with the W124 and W201 - chassis were the last of a dying breed of over-engineered vehicles. This specific model, the S600 V12, was the higher-end of this chassis, so all the best available at that time was through in. I am very glad to see you preserve a unit of this amazing car! I cleaned many times my father's W201, and I remember loving seeing a clean rim - which was pretty much similar to those ones you cleaned. Cheers Larry!

I always admire Larry’s ability to know exactly how far to go, not trying to bring the S600 to a like new look. Such great experience.
I worked at a carwash in 1997 and had a customer with this same car. It was a beast! I loved diving it, even though it was only a few meters at less than 10 mph. The car was immaculate! 😃👍
These cars never get old. You make me smile today ☺️
I can’t help but be amazed at the work that Larry accomplished here. Reminds me of when I was stuck on a freeway near San Antonio and Larry pushed me and the car all the way to a gas station. Incredible as always Larry!
Lovely to see a Mercedes here again. Thank you Larry!
Omg, the difference, before and after. Especially after the polishing. Amazing work, Larry!!
Mercedes black paint is one of the nicest before-after transformations you will see. I had one detailed a few years ago and the paint blew me away in person.
Crazy to think there's a generation of engineers at Mercedes whose life work was building that car Nicely done Larry! Also thanks for all the "will it starts" to these videos, it really wraps up the transformations well

This car turned into a freaking mirror. Ive watched so many videos and my gosh it never fails to satisfy! I watch a lot of renovations in all forma, jewelry, old electronics, homes, woodwork, vehicles, planes; you name it; but compared to AMMO i have never seen so much dedication and pure talent and effort put into renewing anything! Keep it up please, this is my daily therapy!
This and the Lexus LS 400 were dream cars of mine. I’m in my mid 40’s and growing in private schools, these things both were pinnacles. Get job Larry. Sincerely appreciate the content. Best to you and the shop. Keep them coming. Man that two tone black and grey hit so hard.

I heard one of these things went past me just today, the V12 sounds amazing
Great job as always Larry and team. The W140 Benz will always be one of my favorites. Rock solid, great looks, comfy interior and the ride was incredible on the highway.
Love the 50 50 before and after on this paint!!! Super job Larry!
You know how Larry loves his craft. He still learns every single day but is very humble. Seeing detailing KZreadrs watching him for technique and tips, you know he got the skills to back it up without saying. Nice video, as always!
I’ve had a 3k mile black IS-F in storage for many years. I got one of those instagram famous detailers to come in about a year ago to give it some love. It looked exactly like this Mercedes did the day after he left. The buffer trails were absolutely insane.

These videos will always be my favorite detailing videos, you are incredibly thorough and in the process of being so explain why you do what you are doing. Always love it.
This was an incredible turnaround for this beautiful car Larry. The before and after is absolutely incredible on this car! A very rare car indeed the V12 model of this car could go from zero to 60 in 4.6 seconds not to mention the incredible luxury feel of this car. Mercedes has always done in right when it comes to luxury automobiles this is a very good one Larry I love it.

Wash working on the W140 is the best feeling ever. Time runs so fast, and you’re never done. There’s so many of those little inches to cover, and more you do, the more you feel something else could be done to keep it neat! Good job Larry!
This is a DREAM car....I just love those old S-classes, especially these. Wow!!!! Wish I could get one to detail. Brilliant job, as usual!!

That’s one of those things that separates pros from armatures out in the field. I used to do mobile detailing and you wouldn’t believe the difference it makes. Especially on big aftermarket wheels where you can see it easily. Customers knew you did your best if you did that. That, and streak free glass and cleaning visor mirrors. Customers noticed and outs you a step above. Like exhaust tips. Hell I can go on and on lol.

Thanks for your videos been watching for years. I now detail on the side for extra money when someone needs their vehicle done. There's so much pleasure seeing someone's face light up and tell you the car looks better now than when they bought it. 🙏
There is nothing more satisfying for me than polishing or seeing really badly swirled and oxidised paint being polished. It still looks and feels like total pure magic to me.
Keep up the good work!!!
incredible how well built these old mercedes are, the quality of that leather and the paint is amazing, it immediately become back new after just cleaning i
I very much appreciate the job you have done on that beautiful W140. One question came up though: Doesn't the foam and water mixtures affect the electronics around the engine and the inside?
This Mercedes it's alive !!!!! No words the 50/50 Great job Larry 👌 As always Sorry for my English 😢 I want to improve it and learn detail with your advice , I'm detailing, but no like you , you are so great you are pro That's why I like your videos Thanks Larry 👍
You are amazing. I watched the entire episode with some kind of joy. It is also very important to revive a classic like the S600 because they don't make car like that anymore. Thanks again.
You inspired me to get a proper detailing training and maybe one day I will also do what I find satisfying on a daily basis. Thanks!
Best at what you do --- Hands down! Keep up the great work, videos are AMAZING!

I've always been a fan of the S600. There's just something about the style. Nice work Larry!
What a finish Larry. That looked like one of those jobs where half way through you sometimes feel like giving up. Definitely worth it! Well done

This video was therapeutic for me as it was for you Larry. A lot going on in life and your videos help me decompress.
Many years ago I watched a wash vid by Drive and saw comments about Larry. The years it wasn't a trend to clean cars. I saw a passionate man with no bs. I supported and kept following until I ran into Guru. Wow, 2 unmatched car detailers. I used to wash fam cars only, ended getting a moto and I dont really have to deal with cars but I do something see the videos that have me speechless. This guy cleans even the under area, treats the car so unalloyed. Keep it up brother 💪

I see an AMMO NYC video, instant serotonin supercharge for me. As always, I really enjoyed the video so much.^^
Great video Larry. I love these early W140s before the styling was toned down. Much maligned for decades, I think the design has aged very well now.
Larry excellent job. You sir giving joy to many people 👌. Not to mention your passion is appreciated 👌

The paint looks fresh and new. And the inside looks great again. Beautiful job.
Another amazing transformation Larry!
I have been watching your videos for some time now and I must say hands down you are definitely by far the best of the best car dealer.
It is so satisfying to watch, great job guys! Love your work.
Larry, I wouldn't call swirls a detailer signature. It might be a hack's signature. I've been using wool pads since the 80s. Just gotta understand a buffer is a tool that does the work. Paint's gotta be cool, clean, and can't let the product dry. Also, gotta keep the pad clean. Made lots of cash fixing swirls over the years, especially on darker cars, blacks, dark blues, etc.
Larry I always love your videos and the knowledge you provide. I'm laughing because I had a video from a few months ago with the same title but not a v12. But it's so great to see your version and I always look forward to the next. 👍
I always wish your videos were a bit longer Larry, love the cleaning process. Love from Manchester, UK 🇬🇧
