Classic Mercedes Specialist Restoration

At The SLSHOP, we’re driven by our customers. In the beginning, we were a small Mercedes specialist focusing solely in the R107 variant. Since then, we’ve grown into a full classic Mercedes-Benz Specialist with 60 members of staff dedicated to models from the fifties to the 2000s. And now, we have customers on all continents. Through servicing and restoring 107 SLs, we’ve been asked to handle various tasks, big and small, on all manner of classic cars. As a result, this has given us the experience and skills to restore, maintain and service any classic Mercedes-Benz. As well as our well-known work with the R 107, W113 and R129, we’ve restored and worked on many Mercedes models, including 300 SEL 6.3s, W111 280 SE 3.5s, Pontons, W116, W123, and more. So, if you have a classic Mercedes-Benz and are considering some improvements or a restoration, do get in touch.

SLSHOP Craftsmanship

Ultimately, the quality of a finished piece lies in the strength of the craftsmanship throughout. Therefore, we apply the same detail to every aspect of your build and restoration. Not only does this include the final fitment of chrome, but everything from the way we bolt the seats to the paintwork. After all, with our years of experience, we know these cars well enough to understand how the little details ﬁt the big picture.
