MBWorld Fanatic!
I think that replacing wheels on the older car will look bizarre.
The new one is good to go with whatever you like. I personally don't like the look of monoblocks, as I prefer a more open spoke look. Try Tirerack to see what each car would look like with different types of wheel. That's a handy little feature.

I understand why people like the open spoke wheels, but I'm a little old fashioned when it comes to my tastes. I really like the AMG Aero II but alas they only come in 17" so far aas I've found. I did find a set of 18" Brabus Monoblock IV five holes for $900 though. I can't replace the wheels on the 1977, my girlfriend would shoot me, or run over me. She's loves the hubcaps on her car.
