Gemballa 500 SEC: Understated ’80s Opulence

💥 MERCH IS HERE: 💥 Gemballa is known as one of the most extreme ’80s tuners. Primarily focusing on Porsches, Gemballa did do work on several Mercedes models like the SEC and SEL. Known for lavish interiors and revolutionary technology for the time, Gemballa spared no expense. This example, however, a 1984 500 SEC, is a rather understated example of Gemballa’s typical work. A beautiful leather interior is capped off with the signature Gemballa steering wheel that features radio controls - the first to do so in this era. 👇🏽 Follow Us for Day-to-Day Content 👇🏽 // Instagram 📸: // Instagram 📸: // Music 🎶: From the famous AMG Hammer to the Koenig Specials 560 SEC, The Patina Collective is home to the world’s most unique and influential Mercedes-Benz.
