It looks like your rear is too low.

It is not unsual for 126 cars to need replacement of rear springs.

The front looks too high.

The proper attitude is for the rear (car with full tank of fuel and no passengers or luggage) to be slightly higher than the front, as veiwed from the side.

My old 82 300SD was what I called an "ass sitter" and absolutely needed the rear springs replaced. Afterwards the car felt transformed.

There was recently a thread all about this. Use the search feature. Try using my user name and ass sitter.
