Euro W123 280E at Windsor (N. Cal.) Pick-n-Pull

Nik and Justin drove over from Sacramento to meet me at the Windsor (north of Santa Rosa, in Northern California) Pick and Pull. In the lobby we spotted this nice Euro 123. Someone really should pick this one up, it looks nice. In the photo, that's Nik on the left, Justin on the right.

It is a 280E, VIN 123.033 12 021010 (if that isn't enough digits, make the last number 0210010).
It has 209000 miles on the odometer, manufacturing date 02/77.
They started the engine and it sounded good (for a gasser). We didn't drive it.
It has no sunroof, lefthand mirror only, didn't notice whether the windows were manual or power.
Seats were in pretty good shape, body was straight, new paint in the last few years, the hood star is missing.
Full wheel covers, not "hub caps."
I only got the one picture before someone came over to tell me you can't take pictures in P&P (why?).
