Same color as my 62 190c.

Mine had navy interior.

Loved the ivory steering wheel.

Very, very nice, but ....

Aftermarket exhaust, at least center section

Wrong exhaust tip - should have outward ring at rear

Aftermarket rear shocks - Bilsteins are black

Exhaust - air cleaner hose should be black

Plug wires

Sacré bleu. Easy on the nitpicking... enjoy it for what it is.
I doubt it's a museum car but just a fine driver that's likely nicer than most of our MBs.

After this many years the underbody has a good reason to have some dirt on it.

Both of those are very nice examples of fintails, you don't see them in that kind of condition much these days.
