1955 Mercedes Benz 170 SV-D Pickup Truck. This is a factory built diesel pickup truck with a production of fewer than 80 built. I picked this truck up 35 years ago and drove it for couple years before the transmission output shaft bearing made it's escape from the rear transmission cover at which time I retired the truck to source a replacement cover. The truck has been in dry storage since. The engine still turns free. I have spent the last 30 some years meaning to restore or rod this cutie but have reached a point in life where I'm realizing that's probably just not going to happen with me. The truck overall is in very good restorable condition. the only pieces missing being the front bumpers. clock and rear bumperette's. Included are a complete new gasket set. new piston set. and new main and rod bearing sets. two sets of new rear axel boots. new horn ring. new radiator cap/escutchion/star ( a one piece unit) and assorted new and used sundry parts. The original transmission and a spare are in buckets in the back of the truck. The canopy is not stock but is a remarkably appropriate custom fit built in the period the truck was new. After owning this vehicle for more than 35 years and avidly searching for others I have only located two other factory trucks of this production run. This is a very modest but rare model of Mercedes manufacture. As e-Bay requires a title designation I have listed it as "Clear" however there is no U. S. title. I do however have the last Aussie title and importation documents in hand. Please address any questions to me that you may have before placing a bid on this listing. Thank you.

You mentioned the canopy is original but built in the same time period. Is the canopy removable so you can expose the flat bed of the truck? It’s hard to tell from your photos.
