Of course, most of the cars we repair are like the cars we actually drive. . . Hondas, Fords, Toyotas and Chevys. But we really enjoy getting to see and work on so many exotic and classic cars at the shop.

1989 Mercedes Color Restoration

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1989 Mercedes 190e. This car came into our lot with a mismatched fender, instead of matching just the fender, the owner decided to refinish the entire car black, and lose the grey "Two Tone", with our Enamel paint package and had this classic Mercedes shining like new again!

The Price of Swagger: 2011 Maybach "Custom Convertible" by Jay-Z and Kanye West

Uhh. . . not sure what to say about this. . . most people have never heard of Maybach (Mercedes Benz's super-ultra luxury division.) Fewer have ever seen one. The "cheap" version retails for $375,000 USD. If you are interested, the Jay-Z/Kanye West Custom Maybach in this video will be auctioned with proceeds going to relief for the East African Drought Disaster. Hopefully it brings a lot of money but we think you may be able to own a new Maybach for a fraction of the original cost.

From our buddies at WreckedExotics.com comes this photo of a 1-day old, $200K+ Mercedes Benz SLS AMG gullwing in Bosnia. The owner picked-up his car the previous day and was taking it on a high-speed excursion. A tour bus got in the way and the SLS crashed into a Volkswagen.

Built Like a Tank but Shouldn't Look Like One

Today's Mercedes is one of the huge old built-like-a-tank S-Class models with a diesel engine that will run forever. The camouflage paint scheme is purely by accident. The interior was in great shape and the engine was strong and ran like new. But this was a car seriously in need of a paint job. Almost Everything sanded off all the old, failed paint and got the surface smooth then we applied a new coat of primer/sealer before repainting the car.

2001 Mercedes Benz E320 with key scratches

Today's Car of the Day is a nice 2001 Mercedes Benz E320 that came in with key scratches, scrapes and dents. Almost Everything Autobody recondition all the key scratches, repaired the scrapes on the front bumper cover and repaired the dents on the decklid. Almost Everything Autobody prepped and painted the entire car with the Presidential paint service. The customer liked the results so much that decided to paint their second car, a 1998 Bmw 528i that we are working on right now.
