Yes, and the engine shows fuel leaks on the intake manifold. Probably needs new seals and return hoses. I wouldn't be surprised if the seller has a fairly high reserve.
My '87 300D came with records from the PO for all the work done at the dealership including the campaign to removed the trap and installed a CAT and a new exhaust line and mufflers. To the tune of $1800 as I recall (factory gets invoiced by the dealer for the charges) and there were still paper stickers on the mufflers when I got it.
My 300D came with the factory window stickers too, it sold for over $38,000 in 1987. Keep that in mind when looking at the SDL, they must have sold for close to $50K!
