Anyone ever have a RIM JOB???

I HOPE this isn't a frequently asked question..(since I didn't search the archives before posting)..

I've been told I have a bent wheel on my 1969 MB 250/8....I'm ASSuming that they're talking about the RIM..

Is this something that one has FIXED or do I look for a "new" OLD rim SOMEWHERE??

I don't have a clue!

It'd great if if can be fixed. From my experience, which isn't very much anyway, fixing a bent wheel is quite a difficult task but nevertheless not am impossible task.

The 300SE wheel was so bent that it couldn't be fixed. Ditto for the 123 - and the new wheels look darn groovy.

The 260E had its wheel fixed - for a slight bent. Now, that was a good 2 days job done.
