Wow!  Nice website too!

To me, the 109 and the pre-1970 SLs are the sexiest postwar MBs.  I 
appreciate your efforts to save a classic.

This style isn't bad either. How hard is it to find uncracked ivory steering 
wheels?

I have one that's close.  It has surface cracks where the center
supports join the rim, but no separations on the rim.  Could be filled
with bondo or similar.

There used to be a guy I knew who restored the ivory steering wheels for VWs. 
 it wasn't that expensive and it looked very nice.

I have seen DIY instructions for it as well...

If you buy it, I have a nice set of bumpers for it I'd like to sell.
