A color change would hurt value if you want a show car, or want to eventually
sell it as a show car, because it's no longer original.
Otherwise I think it's just whether you like the color or not, and how well the

Desirable for what? For driving - either the very early 350/450 or the 560.
The early ones don't have ACC to fight with. The 560 is the most refined

What about 110? 110 and 111 are the same, but 13" All larger
wheels will work on the 110/111, but the 13" wheels will only fit on

If I found 15" bundts, they would look original. I'd rather have 8
holers to take care of, b
So - yes. You can get the pancake wheels from a 126 and look like a 560SL.

Need to get tires for the SL. It has 205/70-14 bundts on it.
Everything else I have runs 15" wheels. TO standardize, I am
pondering what other wheels will fit. Specifically, does anyone know
if wheels off of a 123, 124 or 126 will fit?

I have a headlight switch that fits 107, 108, 110, 111,112, 113, 114,
115, 116, 123 and 126 v1 and possibly 126 v2.
If anyone wants it make me an offer. New ones are over $100. If no
takers here, it is going to fleabay.
