Seats could have been reupholstered, but the door panels suggest either a thorough job, or that they are original.

What scares me is the location and the W116 body. These cars are rust magnets, and the wonderful state of Ohio is a big salt user.

Look closely at the anti sway bar mounts in front, common rust out area, and the cost of repairs effectively totals the car. Sway bar runns high along the firewall.
