Hardtop wood trim dimensions
« on: March 29, 2016, 09:27:01 »
Hi all,

I am in the middle of my 230Sl restoration. Hardtop wood trim is missing and I need to make it a new one. Just wondering if anyone knows dimensions of the trim: thickness, width, type of the wood etc etc?

Thanks in advance.

Srba

Sounds like you will need a loaner set so you can make a set.

This does not give you dimensions, so probably will not help, but they do make them and photos may help:
