What year/model is this? Ideas? Just curious.

I know that he drives a r107 now as his daily driver, but am curious if anyone can identify this particular model and year? The photo was taken in 1976.

The matching (non-black) dash color and the tu tone doors make it an early R107, but we already knew that....

looks like an SLC, seems to has what looks like the top of a back seat, there is also one out the passenger door window. ( SLC) The silver wiper blade holders ( appear that way ) are 79-83?

Interesting observances. I knew you guys could find everything. I thought it might be an SLC too, but wasn't sure. The photo is from 1976, Bob Dylan and his wife Sara Lowndes. I know that Dylan drives a R107 SL now. Was curious if it might be the same car, but I guess not.
