1967 250 SL : Help! How many were made?!

[1967250SL]

Hi, Does anyone know where I can find out how many 250SLs were made in the one year of production - 1967? I know 149 LHDs were built but not how many RHDs!

According to James Taylor's "The Mercedes-Benz Since 1945, Vol 2: The 1960s", W113 250SL production was: 1966: 17; 1967: 5,177; 1968: 2.

He doesn't distinguish between LHD & RHD but, assuming his figues are correct, the LHD production would certainly be higher than your figure.

You might get more info by searching one of the US or German Pagoda-specific forums. Or maybe MB Classic could help if you e-mail them.
