As I have mentioned before, I have recently inhereted a 1968 Mercedes 230S in need of some love. I have been looking on the internet for parts for the car, and have found a few sites that carry the basic mechanical parts, but I have yet to find anybody that provide me with body and interior parts. Does anybody here know of some Mercedes owner's clubs where I could make some contatcs? There are several parts that I need for the car like rocker panels, upholstery and carpet, A/C control levers and the list goes on...
I plan to bring the car back to the condition that my grandfather had it in before he died. The car isn't in good enough condition to even consider a full restoration, and frankly I don't have the time or money to do so. I just want a nice driver that will basically be a tribute to my grandfather and how much he loved the car. I have linked the pictures below. The car is pretty rough in the pictures, but I have cleaned it up and will be buying a cover for it soon. Oh, and the lisence plates - OL AG 44, my grandfather graduated from Texas A&M in 1944. Those plates were a birthday present to him two years before he passed away.
Thanks in advance for any help, I know I won't be disappointed.
