It's lovely. Any idea how it got those little round clearance markers?

The parking light circles were added when new by the first owner.  Quality chrome illuminated lights.

Looks like a great car with few add-ons. Beside side markers the bumper guards also come from elsewhere.
Welcome :)

Did you see the bumper guards listed on the original 1966 invoice?

They were dealer fitted and not a MB option I believe, like the fitment of the radio with wiring done by MB but radio fitted by dealer.
