It was not on the 123.
But, like I said the Tow Truck Driver drove a Plastic wedge between the Door and the Frame/Pillar at the top of the Door.
I don't have a plastic Wedge to try that so I can't say if it will work or not. Part of My point was that the Driver knew what He was doing.
OK I just tried this with a Screwdriver and folds of Newspaper over the exterior Paint so I would not scratch it and I could with out much effort (I did not want to damage the paint so I did not push it hard) on my W123 open a 1/4 inch gap between the Rubber Molding and the Pillar.
That would be enough to get a Coat Hanger throug; and I have used a Coat Hanger on another Car before so I have some experience at that; extremely frustrating but it finally worked.
I am guessing if I had the proper Tool I could open a larger Gap.
Added that was the Rear Pillar on the Front Door at the top.
