280sl automatic service in San Diego
« on: March 03, 2018, 20:41:01 »
Looking for recommendations to service my 280sl and help me develop a restoration plan. Does San Diego have those services or more towards LA area?

I would suggest you get in touch with Silver Star Mercedes in Escondido or Onager in National City.

I am going to Onager tomorrow, hopefully it will be a good choice, although the street view on Google does not give me a lot of confidence yet

They seem very competent, and they had several 280sl's in their shop. Think it will work out ok

I received my car back from Onagers this week, and am so far happy with the results
The work was not inexpensive but it seems as if they know what they are doing and their work was conscientious
I would recommend them to anyone in the area

I can help you with a couple of places I am having my 280sl restored with in Los Angeles if you decide to do it there.

Chris,
May be you can help me. I am still looking for a place or shop (greater LA area) to do the final blocking and paint on my car.
Thanks
