RUST PROTECTION FOR HERITAGE MERCEDES MODELS
On the surface, your 1950s or 1960s Mercedes should possess the sparkle of a sixty’s celebrity, but it is underneath where natural, corrosive elements could be eating away at your prized possession.
Now over 50 years old, these vehicles require complete CARE and attention to ensure they are protected from the elements.
There are key structural elements that require inspection and protection on a regular basis to secure your vehicle’s long term usability and financial value.
HOW WE PROTECT YOUR ASSET FROM RUST
Our Heritage Craftsmen understand the specific areas of fragility found on models built throughout the fifties and sixties. This experience comes from years of work restoring almost 100 different Mercedes models from this era. They will take the time to inspect, strip , address and apply protective treatments to rust prone and affected areas. Where necessary, we can completely restore your vehicle should it require it.
WHY SHOULD I APPLY RUST PROTECTION?
It is likely that many years have passed since any form of protective products have been applied to your vehicle. If your vehicle has been restored, we urge you to check what protection has been applied to prevent natural elements from reversing all of the important work carried out. SLSHOP utilises industry leading products when dealing with restorations and completely original vehicles.

Pagoda & 60’s Shop Tour
In the beginning, R107 customers started bringing their 1960s cars to SLSHOP. Following this, we’ve grown into a dedicated workshop specifically for cars of this era. Here, you’ll find a wide variety of Pagodas. Of those, some are here for final touches, some for initial assessment, and everything in between. After all, every Pagoda’s needs are different. And it’s not just SLs in this workshop, either… In addition, we regularly see earlier SLs and all manner of saloons, coupes, and convertibles from this glorious era of style and statement.
So step back in time and browse our 1960s workshop here. Because who doesn’t love eyeing beautiful old cars!
