1986 560SEC restoration

Hi guys, new member here. I got 1986 560SEC in my garage and I am ready to start with a restoration but I have no idea where to look for a shop that specializes in these beauties. Any suggestions? Any of you have an experience with this?
Many thanks
BR

Where did you het that ??
ok. Nice car. Do you have Any idea where to start.

do you have any tools, if so are you handy with them. Do you have a common knowledge of basic automotive theory. Like intake, compression, power exhaust

some ares of these vehicles are simple others not so simple.

kip it very simple in the beginning and move forward very slowly.
