*MINTY* green even. Or just faded? Interior looks great (for being a color that reminds me often of my baby's diapers).

It's the original color. Quite a few of that era were in that color. There's a 73 450SEL for sale in Houston right now in that color too.

I'd take it just for it's "coolness" factor as well. Except, it has no AC, and I'm in Phoenix so...

The only problem is it has an EVIL carburetor!

Power of a 230TE, economy of a 280TE...

M123 sounds better than an M110 through that Solex carb.

I'd wait for the 280TE and one that has AC. Nice color combo though - I like it.
