Long shot, but I'm trying to avoid a trip to the west coast for obvious reasons.

Pretty sure someone on here had one for sale a while back but can’t seem to find it now. Someone with better skillz may be able to find it??

@BIGWOODY may be able to help

He put it on fb marketplace, don’t know if it sold, but he was casting a larger net

For clarification, I'm talking about the car (MB 300SD) with that engine (OM617), its a popular engine to swap into a lot of things so the thread title may have been confusing with all the numbers.

So you’re looking at the whole car or the motor? I guess I’m confused now but, @BIGWOODY is the resident Mercedes Benz officianado.

Whole car preferably running and driving.

I got 2 in my backyard! There actually not mine though. Belong to a friend. One is for sure for sale but its the 300d. Runs and drives needs brake work. It ain't pretty. But comes with a manual transmission to do a swap. With that said my ferrier is interested in it he comes back in a couple weeks I'll find out how serious he is. Ill find out from the other brother if he wants to sell his SD. I dont think he does but I'll find out for sure.

Too clean for Craigslist, tbh. I'm looking for the 300SD though, its a full size 4 Door Sedan with a longer wheel base and more interior space.
