Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Turn on subtitles or view the transcript at the bottom of the description if you'd like explanations on what I'm doing throughout the video.

Part 1: https://youtu.be/W-9RtCE5t48
A second round of repairs for this 1975 Mercedes 240D. My friend's been putting some miles on this car now after I de-moused it in the last video. It's time to fix a few more things, like replace all the brakes and some steering components, plus a couple other items. I also included some maintenance on the 1986 325 BMW, belonging to the same owner as the Chevy Blazer I featured quite a while ago. Also, I moved halfway through this video, so that's why you may notice a change of scenery towards the end.
