Part 4 of the Mercedes 190E Build! Sorry for being MIA a bit on the videos recently, a car accident will do that to you. But nonetheless we are still trying to make progress on the Mercedes here soon! So here's an updated plan with what we're doing with the OTHER Mercedes I just bought!

I'm thinking it's definitely prone to run after a few tweaks and checks here and there! Let me know why you guys think though?

This place could be a GOLD MINE for the right car and definitely shouldn't be ignored by new project car owners! However my trip didn't really go as planned lol. But back to working on the engine this weekend I have a good feeling that she'll be breathing here come Monday.

I love adding more and more things to the list of "Need to fix" for the build! That was a joke but we got some work ahead of us and it'll be all worth it by the end! Let's see what works and doesn't work in the interior

I told you I was going to record everything, even the slow and partially boring stuff with trying to get this car running again! So let's dive in a bit and see what we can find that might be causing my no start!

Here's the final reveal of the new project car!! Super excited to learn more about this platform and it's potential. I have a really cool vision for this car and I can't wait for all of you to see how it turns out in the end. A huge shout-out to for selling me the car y'all should definitely check him out if you like Mercedes builds! Thanks for sticking by me while the Z is down and here's to another cool build 🥂🥂

It's been a while y'all...

Me and have been working on the car as much as we can these past months! Lots of two steps forward and one step back moments during this build but we're still making steps foward. I also took a break from the content with my son being born but I am back and going to start doing videos again on the process (Hoping weekly at least). The 8HP swap is just waiting for this engine to breath life again. It was a good and bad thing that the engine kinda blew right before I was ready to start the transnational swap. On one hand it's taking MUCH MUCH longer than I intended but on the other not only are we getting a badass transmission we will also have more powa baby! So stay tuned y'all! I keep saying this but the comeback is going to insane!

Your car didn't give up on you till it couldn't move anymore so why not do the same back?

I am still making progress on the rebuild and getting really close to the new engine being fully assembled and put back into the car! More update videos coming soon!

Seriously can't thank you guys enough for the support through 2025. Funny thing was I flatlined on growth for the entire year til these last two months! So what changed? I posted for myself again, not for the engagement. In addition you guys welcomed that type of real content with me talking about plans, struggles with the car, and stuff I'm learning along the way. So while 25 was a very big learning year for me. 2026 might be one of thee most insane years for my Zs build and I'm excited to share that with y'all in a very honest format so you can enjoy all the ups and downs in the process!! Love y'all ♥️ see you next year!
