What the heck? A 3-speed manual W123?

The 4 is worn off.

are you sure? that does look like a very convincing 3 speed...

100%. There was never a 3-speed manual in the W123.

then is it possible that it could be from another car? w115?

If there was, it was probably in the early (Late 60's) 220D. However, the listing says its specifically for a W123.

Look closely at the knob and you can see the "4" outline.

Nope, not in manual form. They were all 4 speeds too. The automatics were all 4 speeds.

I have driven a 180D, a 190D, a 240D 115, and my 24oD 123 -- they were all 4 speeds ...

Don't worry about it.
 
Here's why. That stupid Ebayer is going to sell that 3 speed handle to the same idiot he is going to sell the 3 speed linkage to. Just watch it.

I hope a LoveCrap supporter is the idiot...
