Please see the videos linked above this ^ Thiswas oneof MB"sfirst new model s after the war. The "S", in SD means steel frame. These arefairly hard to find now. Quite an advanced car for the time, Overheadvalve diesel, 4spd, independent suspension, self lubricating systemfor the joints. Aclaimed fuel consumption of over 40mpg.
Ithas a clear VA title in my name. Ihad it running at one point (notrunning well) ,then found and swapped in another om636 engine (froma 180d) .It was soon realized that this engine too needed a rebuild. As of now neither engine is running, and will need to be rebuilt.
I putin some new style pencil glow plugs, and rebuiltthe brake system, but I"m certain someone else would do it again…
Seemssomeone in years past started to restore it, and either gave up, andor lost most of the trim bits.
I dohave a rear glass, runningboards, fuel tank, front bumper bits. andsome side panels for under the hood( theunder hood panels will need to be modified). Have a new set of rod,and crank bearings to go with it.
Allglass is in the doors, I have a donor windshield for a templet (flatglass).
Itshad numerous patches in the floor over the years, alsobeen stiffened under the door edges of the body .
Soit rolls, and stops as of now. Mainly needs an engine rebuild , amongeverything else. . (comeswith another engine of the same type).
The car is located in Maurertown, VA 22644
I have a some home printed MB service books to go with it. Yourwelcome to have it shipped( this is all up to the buyer), I’ll helpas much as possible. Since it comes with another engine, and itdoesn’t run- this should be taken into consideration.
Iwould like a non refundable deposit of $200, within 24 hours. The car should be payed for in full within 7 days from listingending. I"m very flexible about a pickup time. I"ll behappy work with you on a time frame, just ask up front. I"m also opento vehicles like : King Midget , DAF , Trabant , Borgward , FordModel T , Lada , GAZ , Skoda , Wartburg , NSU , Crosley , Bantam ,Austin 7, Hillman , Rootes group , Rolls Royce ,Citroen , Peugeot , Renault , Panhard Car , Honda dream , Framo , UAZ, Barkas , ZAZ , Unimog , Fiat , Alfa Romeo , Lancia , Hudson ,Packard , Cadillac , Marusho , Ural , Mercedes , Lloyd Alexander ,Velorex , Tatra , Jawa , Royal Enfield Diesel .
