1967 rims??

Did the wheels on the 1967 230sl only have two pieces or did they also offer a one piece hubcap that year? thanks mary

Only two-piece wheel covers.
You can find all of this by searching the Technical Manual. Try it , it wont bite.

Thanks 66 and blue for your help and I did get the info from the link you provided..the bite only hurt a minute or 2 when I found out the price on the two piece ring and hub cap LOL.. I noticed you live in SB...great place...my family has had a place there on Pacific/Solana vista since 1959...Maybe I'll see you around there some time..Again thanks for your help! Mary

Mary,

If you have the patience, these hubcaps and rings come up on ebay every once in a while. The tedious part is painting them to match your car. Pricing for replacement parts for our cars run the whole gambit from "Is that all it costs?" to "take your breadth away"...hopefully you won't need sunvisors any time soon.

Have you posted pics of your car, yet?

No I have not posted pictures I just had the car delivered on Thursday 11/11/10 and brought it to the mechanic first thing to check it out completely..He said it was in perfect shape on the undercarriage and he should know because he worked on the brand new ones off the line in Germany when they were first made..I liked hearing the good news with 90,000 original miles. He said it only needed points adjustment and oil change. It is in beautiful shape and I am thrilled to get it for only 20,000. Good deal. I will take picture but I need to join this group first too! You all are great people and interesting too! Thanks Mary
