The car had minimal stuff replaced. Fundamentally a 35 year old underpowered car with some flaws and a lot of expense required to bring it back to good condition.
I'm with Allan. 16k is a fortune for that car. You could easily put 10k into it to make it nice, and even then it would not be perfect. Insurance did just offer me 6k to fix a clapped out 83 wagon after it got hit by a car transporter, so they must think even a poor example is worth at least that much. Not even sure I will fix it. The BAT price history graph shows not many 123 wagons selling for under 10k. So that seems to be the floor for a presentable example.
