parts catalog
« on: January 15, 2021, 21:50:43 »
Does anyone know what parts catalog an early 1967 250 sl
would have come with?

I noticed parts catalog B is for 250 and 280 models and is dated 1968
 also what other brochures would have come with a car sold in USA?

I have an owners manual and that is it.

Thanks

JN - take a look at Pagoda Notes Volume 2, Nos. 3 & 4 - there you will find a discussion about the items that came with the Pagoda and various other sales brochures, etc.

The only items specific to the Pagoda are the parts manual and the owner's manual. (for a 280 SL there is a specific item for consumer information, a US item for stopping distance).

Some of the other materials and books that came with the car would be date specific - dealer directory and maps for example.

The small parts book is 12128

Thanks Johnny

That is a great resource that I forgot about!
Do you know if any of the maps and dealer direct items are available anywhere?
I am trying to complete my 250 California Coupe as much as possible.

Your best bet is to set up standard searches on eBay for each item you are looking for. These are all generic and not specific to the 113.

The dealer directories were updated on a quarterly basis, so keep an eye on the dates if you feel the need to be consistent with the year of the car.

I am not sure about the update frequency on the map books, there are at least three major regional books, Americas/Africa/ Australia, Europe, Germany. Not sure if there are others.

There are two types of map books, one that is the size of the owner's manual that would fit in the plastic pouch usually stored in the spare tire. And a smaller one that would be stored in the glove box.

The service record booklet - but there are two types an early version up to 1965 (not sure of the exact date) with a silhouette of a 111 coupe and the later version with a silhouette of a 108/109 sedan. These are relatively easy to find, but they will almost always be written in. I have not been successful in finding a completely clear one.

What I did to assemble a full set was at times to buy a set from a sedan or some such just to get a seat belt book, or the map, etc. I did end up with  odds and ends, but was successful in getting all the items, even a blank dealer's welcome letter form.
