Import from Germany via the Netherlands, 1973 Mercedes Benz 406d camper. High roof. Probably the only of it's kind in North America. It ran to where parked a year ago but has (badly) blown head gasket & serious rust issues & roof leaks etc.

Camper interior, not a bad start to a project overall but there are some serious areas of water damage, wood rot, rust & etc.

Mechanically besides the blown head gasket, everything including the transmission, brakes, suspension, axles, radiator, etc was solid. Sale includes some service etc history, and a large sack of hard to find Repair & Parts / Service Manuals

406d = 400 series merc commercial bus truck chassis, 60hp engine (yes really only 64-ish hp, but gearing makes it not too bad), 55-60mph top cruising speed (100km/hr), 18-20mpg, includes straight veggie oil conversion installed never used (no tank or filter). Manual trans good shape, dual rear wheels, fairly low original kms at around ~139,000kilometers. Its been on at least 2 long trips across the continent & I would love to find a dedicated new owner who might take it on more adventures.
