Meanwhile, probably some guy who has been wanting a W116 300SD for years finally works out a deal on a rusty one with high miles and a trashed interior that was for sale by a guy who wants some outrageously high price for it.

So now he spends a bunch of money replacing the interior with parts on eBay and welding in new patch panels and has a fortune into the car, and it's still not much of any good, plus it needs paint.

It seems that only the rustiest, roughest cars ever go up for sale (except the ones that are listed at high bluebook prices) and the sellers want way too much money for them. And then the really nice examples like this get scrapped.
