This was the "300D 2.5 version, I think the engine is an M601 or 602, like the 603 engine with one less cylinder. The "rod-bender" 350 engine (punched-out 603) may also still have been available -- I don't know when they dropped it.

It's a 5-banger like the 617. I wonder if it's smoother? Hard to control things with one piston "missing." Supposed to be a good engine, reasonable power and good economy.
