Thank you for this video !! This SL is NICE NICE NICE!!!
Nothing Classier then a Vintage R107
An SL is a great place to start .
What a beautiful machine 👌
Thank god engineers and mechanics like you are able to keep this Gorgeous cars safely on the road even 45 Year’s later upgrading tuning up upgrades and many more makes these cars even better and faster thanks to my 450sl v8 still runs like a champ with 244 thousand miles with maintenance and regular oil changes
Extraordinary work, I love mercedes sl r107
Owner of a 1977 450SL here in South Florida. I approve the SportLine! Wow!
Beautiful 💙
The stance and ride height of thís car is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!
I believe you are correct. Your shop's passion has lifted this car and, potentially, other remaining 'donor' cars to a wonderful level.
These guys did not ignore the design aesthetic but *enhanced* it
Wow beyond words, what a tasteful bunch of mods. Everything awesome expect the gauges and the leather bits
It’s brilliantly executed.
LOVE, LOVE ,LOVE! I WANT!
Brilliant job guys, proper restomodding!
How can i get one 😭😍🇲🇦
Nice hopefully I'll get my SL to that level.
Just perfect!
This sl in my opinion is perfect. Love the straight 6
Just wish these were available in the USA...
Truly Classy SL
great work looks fantastic! well done guys! more SL sport-line videos required!
Great video, especially using a drone for the aerial shots.
Excelente descripcion de las prestaciones. Tengo un 350 SLC 1974. .
This car is beautiful I really it is a classic they do not make jewelry this car✌😚😍🇪🇸
Beautiful film, the car looks fantastic. Great work
You are the best with the W107 in the entire world!!!!!
Absolutely outstanding Sam!
Those wheels aren’t standard size Barock - are they?
Amazing. You guys are the next Singer Vehicle Design.
Beautiful.
Well Done !
Nice clip!

if I ever can afford one, I really want one like this
Dream Car ...
What you need to do is open a shop in America. Northern Virginia would be a great place, if you want my opinion.
Awsome car but that sound in the background noise makes this video is hard to watch that noise is like a distant siren!
I'm in love
Nice car , nice job :-)
Hopefully I can get one of these
The SportLine is stunning! I really want one!! I dare you to lower Bruce's next tho.... ;)
Lovely
Beautiful job. You have truly understood the mind set of a niche group of enthusiats and catered to it perfectly. Thank you for sharing. What is the cost of the entire project? What is the final bhp and torque on the upgraded car? Thank you again
Well done.
I’d like to see the performance enhancements of the SportLine mated to the look of the 80s AMG bodykit, monochromatic paint and all.
What aaaaaaaaaaa car,what a car
I hope you do the 500sl 1989, hopefully mine will be the first sport line 500sl edition!
Need your help for my 230 TE station wagon 1989. I need transmission kit( matic) original parts. I’m here in the Phils and maybe you can send me email ad or website of store where i can place my order. Tnx
Sam I am taking mine to this level, once we do the bulkhead

@@nikoskonstantinidis4864 Nikos, Yes I did get a quote from the preferred shipping agency. I'd ship it out of Charleston SC to the UK. Presently working on timing, as I have ordered a shotgun from Longthorne's and I want to pick up both in the UK, drive to Scotland for some grouse shooting, then ship both toys back to the USA. Jeff
Looks too small without the larger bumpers.
I Think the engine is much better than the 3.2amg m103.Where I can buy such exhaust manifold?It looks really great!Thank you!
Which wheel dimensions did you use? Was it 205 60 or 65 R15?
A-----MAZING it looks so hot, i am a purist, but what you've done is tastefully enhanced a car and made it so much better with modern tech and know how, i have a SLK230 2000 can you do this to mine, lol
Jony Ive's brother? Nice video, nice car! Would love that 5 speed in my 560SL
did you guys used the blackline dkubus 107 ?
Nice upgrade. Is it me or is the drivers (offside) wheel offset different to passenger (nearside).. ie sticking out more ? If so wouldn't that be detrimental to the SL's handling ?
What you have done with the m103 to increase to 250hp makes me wonder if the the m104 in my R129 300Sl might be able to reach 300 with headers, modern efi and ignition
my most affordable dream car.

Likewise this was the first Mercedes that I fell in love with at the tender age of 6 and now im 33 and I love them more now then I did then
my favourate car,and youve just brought it into 2022 a real car .i wish i new the cost ,got to be around 20 grand .i paid 8 thousand for my 300 sl .or is this 300sl still slower than my freinds 500 sl .
What mercedes are the Mexican hat alloys off? There a little wider?
Tastefull...!
Almost perfect “recreation”. But why.is there a difference in position of the two front wheels? ( left side more to the outside than the left one ). And why no airbag ( our 1985 has one ) and not the original switches for the heated seats? I like the details.
Fantastic vehicle. Love these cars. Found out you are not far from where I live, so will be calling in soon for a better look!

The SL Shop Yes and also because the R230 is a little bit of a poor relation now to the 107. Just the way things are these days. Would have bought one some years ago but got tempted by something else German and in mint condition :-)
That shade of red is amazing!. What code is it? looks like mars red maybe?

I live in Italy and I'm torn between the R107 and the R129, why are R107's becoming so overpriced? Do you advise me to get an r107 and rebuild it with a straight 6 M103 with a 3.0 Engine? I know this engine like the back of my hand because I've owned several W126 and W 124 models in the past. Can you please help me ?

R107s are so nice; why not M110?
Only the villainously puritanical could deny this car it’s existence .
Where can I do this in NYC???
This car is like custom made for the client, have you studied the possibilities of incorporating blue tooth technology, so it can compete with the rest of the cars.
How would an SL owner "upgrade" their vehicle to a Sportline ? Does the SL shop sell a kit ? Even a partial kit ? Would love to find out. Thanks.

How feasible is it to create a 500SL Sportline with Manual Transmission?
@franksteinmann6926

AMG did some conversions of the M117 5.0 V8 to a GETRAG 5-speed manual (the Mercedes box couldn't handle the torque) in the late 70s and early 80s - only a few ever made, but I think it could be done - maybe even to an 560 SL, which has the same engine block but a bigger crankshaft.
15” Bundts are unobtainable….
hope you checked the wiper motor as they can rot off the bulkhead and rightoff your mintlooking engine car
