Angelo,
Data cards - They are available thru the MB Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) Full version or the Compact version. Yours is one of the cards that is not available in the EPC.
You can also go to the MB Club of Russia and they have a program to decode the VIN/data card info.

A warning about this web site, I have found on some vehicles that not all of the option codes are listed, when compared to the MB data cards.
According the MB Classic Center in California, there were 2769 vehicles (107026). But I know for sure that VIN # 2770 exists. I asked MB CC in Calif. about this, and they refused to answer (or more politically correct, "they haven't answered yet").
Crazy - I'll try and uphold that description.
)
I have all kinds of info on the 107026s, 8 GB + of data. Price of a particular option versus time, sales brochures, photos of MB documents (tech books ......) 1000s of photos while doing work on my ladies, etc.
Model Years - The way it was explained to me was : the model year changed on 01 Jan. So Aug 1980 would be a 1980 model. I had to get this explained to me because my middle ladie was built on 19 Dec 1979, But here in the USA is is titled incorrectly as a 1980 model, should be a 1979.
NOT ALL OF THE DATA ENTERED as of yet. - Distribution by Continent. ~76 % of the vehicles sold in German dealerships. ~1 % sold to tourists or foreign diplomats and ~ 22.5 % sold in Europe (excluding Germany) and 2 vehicles sold in Turkish dealerships. Thats pretty close to 100%. In summary, I have only found 2 vehicles (Turkish) that were ordered by dealerships outside of the EU.
If some one was thinking of the "4" vehicles that have the "USA Version" option code 491; first I will state, there were 5 vehicles and all of the vehicles were rally cars (taken delivery in Germany, destination code 291).
Data Cards help - Let me finish what I have undertaken so far and get that info entered. After that when we both get back from our travels, maybe we can work something out. Thanks
Number of 107026s in the USA - I think Steve G. maintains the registery info and can chime in on the exact numbers.
