It's one of 051339 made, with an automatic, up until that point.

I think you didn't catch the methodology he used to figure this out. Look at the number he gave...and the serial number provided.

I'm afraid a '76 300D is not a rare car. It is a good one, however.

Oh, and I always wanted to use this smiley:

Not reading your numbers correctly.....................

Your chassis is a 115.010 and your car is the 70,071st car to come off the line of 128,399 produced...10/67-7/73

Since I now have a Ford, I cannot understand their numbering system. It looks like Greek to me.

The MB system is so much more simple.
