Years ago, I saw the SLS setup on a W115 220D.
Car was euro import, had been a taxi at one time.

I would love to have this car to remove engine and all tranny/shifter components, not to mention the rear SLS, but with the climate at home [] it really can't even be considered.
I've gone and looked at this car and it has zero value to fix up. Trust me! Parts car only. Engine does turn over but there is a serious short in glow plug system, which really is no big deal.
I think this car could be had for $500 or less. They just want it gone!!!
Good opportunity for somebody. Wrong timing for me......

SHEESH!!! This thread seems to be doing about 3200RPM in a 300SDL. I'd LOVE to have that car for parts. Any guess why it won't start? Does it have a #14 head?

Correct! Also the battery in the car was long since dead, plus it was little bitty. The glow plugs were inop, the car hadn't been started in over a year, and all I was using for battery was one of those portable boosters, so engine wasn't spinning near fast enough. But it was spinning.
Trust me, there are 6 intake tubes there, and you can a bit more easily see the 6 exhaust tubes.
Car only had about 124K on it. I didn't look at head #, but you can bet is was original....
The car itself has absolutely no redeeming quality what-so-ever, it is purely drivetrain.....
