FWIW, I just looked up the VIN in the EPC, it comes up as a factory LWB W123 300D (W123.132)? I see now it's listed as sold for $18,000!

Mercedes produced specifically designed LWB chassis of both the W123 & W124, either as a factory bodied 4 door (W123), 6 door (W124) or
with front clip only for ambulance/hearse/van conversion by other coachbuilders (Binz ect.).
