Sh!  Don't anyone tell Dan his steering wheel is incorrect!

Don’t tell anyone it’s not the correct wheel for the car….

The one that Jaime helped me get is actually the correct wheel for 66-67 W110s. 
It’s fatter and has two grooves in it. The original wheel for the earlier 
W110/111/112 models is thinner in cross section and has no grooves.

Of course, I’m not complaining and it’s only something that a purist would know.

with the center pad, it is for sure an object of art.

It is a thing of beauty. I wasn’t sure the dealer was going to let me have it - 
they opened it and had it hanging on the wall in the parts department like an

I tipped dan off and failed to get one myself somehow.  I partially blame
my dealer.  And myself :-(

Last one of two new steering wheels in the world that Mercedes had. I bought 
one the first of April and the other one in inventory was sold a day or two 
after. Mercedes did a price drop that lowered the price below half of the list 
(over $1,000) so I snapped this one up. 

It is a thing of beauty. I wasn’t sure the dealer was going to let me have it - 
they opened it and had it hanging on the wall in the parts department like an
