Can a W123 280E be used as diesel body donor? Anyone want one?

I happen to know of a 280E which has severe fuel system issues. Add to that that the interior is complete but not great, and that it's a 1978 with the dreaded climate servo, and I'm thinking that its rust-free condition with intact glass is its major selling point.

Hypothetically, would anyone pay a few hundred dollars for this car? Or is it scrap? The AZ climate has treated the metal well, and as we know, engines/trans can be replaced but rust is forever...

Curious to know your thoughts...
