I saw the most beautiful 300SD

I've ever seen. An 82, and it's for sale. Not listed, it's at a yard sale. When I go back that way today I'll try to get pics.
Gold with Camel Tex
Near perfect paint and interior, uncracked dash, seats are not blown out
AC is ice cold
zero rust
new hood mat, window rubber is all new, receipts for tranny and valve adjustment and about 2 years' worth of service. Underhood is not detailed and is remarkably clean, no leaks or weeps.
It has a greasecar conversion, but the owner says he didn't use it after a couple of tanks as WVO was too much hassle. This is a negative for me, but I don't know what to look for to see if running grease has hurt the motor.
The car is almost too good looking to believe. It has about 275K miles but sure doesn't look it, more like 27.5K
The guy is asking 5500 bucks though and I'm a bit short so I'll probably pass, sadly. They just don't bring that kind of money around here.
