1) VIN was misspelled in the request form;

Thanks for trying, someone said it isn't much help prior to 1980 or something.

WDB 107 023 12 012951

I think the 11th digit should be a letter.

WDB 107 023 12 012951

Here is the decipher.

WDB - Daml/Benz- Euro Market Spec.

107 chassis w/116 motor
023 -350SLC -'71-'73
1 -LHD
2 - Auto Trans
012951 --serial#

Thanks, is there a site where this is listed? (just curious) The car I'm looking at is supposed to be a 1978? Euro bumpers, lights etc. From reading the SL forum here and elsewhere it looks like some of the 450SLC's were re-badged 350SLC's due to emissions. Anyone know how to tell which engine it has from appearence? From pictures I've seen, it looks like the 350's air intake to the air filter is on the right (drivers) side vs. the 450's being on the left. Is this correct or accurate?
Thanks,
Tom

A 1978 version would be a 107.024 chassis.
Makes no difference what the badges say, The chassis # is what you go by and your chassis info/yr, etc. is as I stated .
You have a 107.023., not a .024

..and if it is a .023 , it is a much better deal than a .024, providing it has the 116 engine still in it.
