It could be worth it simply for the red interior.
Seems to me like Styria should buy it ... ? He may prefer to buy the whole car rather than the hole ...
Regards,
Brian

Going on the condition of the body I would tend to agree as body condition with W116 is the most important part. :)

Geoff, I appreciate your assistance in linking pictures to the car. I still prefer to abstain, probably because of age constraints, as well as space issues. Possibly, for someone a bit younger, this could be a goer. Regards Styria

Not for me as I have one project and will not change course until it is completed to my satisfaction. Which is a high level so it will be a while. :)

And pulled apart as it is it should be easy to asses body condition on inspection. :) But as I said my 6.9 is my priority right now. :)
