You folks got me curious, so I pulled the file with the original invoices and window sticker.

From the window sticker - undated:
a. Qty 1 Mercedes-Benz 220 D Sedan serial number 115110-10-115720

b. Imported to port of Baltimore then Chicago warehouse, delivered to Northand Volkswagen in Marquette, MI.

c. Standard Equipment: Diesel fuel injection system, pwr brake system with 4 wheel disc brakes, fully reclining front bucket seats, electric windshield wipers, steering lock, electric clock, plasticized undercoating, black MB Tex interior, manual trans 4 speed flor shift.

d. Options: $162.00 Becker Europa AM-FM radio, $11.00 rear bumper guard, $72.00 tinted glass, $29.00 whitewall tubeless tires.

e. $113.00 shipping and delivery, $77.00 inland transportation & handling, for a total suggusted retail price of $5531.00

From the invoices (Delta Import Motors of La Crosse, WI) - dated 13 and 14 July 1970:
a. $5606.00 cash delivered price, $1100.00 trade-in on a 1966 VW 311 2dr Fastback, 4% sales tax, $1.00 license fee, for a total of $4,686.24 to the customer.

So...
1. Wish I had that Fastback, too.
2. I don't have a very good memory; the "optional" passenger door mirror wasn't mentioned.
3. Maybe I'll just keep the whitewalls.
4. Yes, the paint is original, from previous post question.
5. Must be a W115 body.

Now my questions:
1. How do I log in? Currently I have to pretend to edit my profile to be able to post a reply. Call me computer stupid.
2. Do the Service CDs have part numbers? My current drill is to take my old catalog to dealer, dealer pulls microfiche to confirm, dealer then crosses over to new part number on computer.
3. Is it unethical to sell some air conditioning parts here? Was going to put it in from parts car and I can't get tempted again if the stuff isn't here anymore.

Thanks,
daBenz
