Starts without issues? No leaks? No smoke or exhaust issues? Thank-you" The car runs really well and actually has some pretty good pep... I have another 1951 170 V Sedan and with the exact same engine and this one definitely has more notable power than the other. I also know the previous owner rebuilt the engine sometime in his ownership because I have found a lot of parts catalogs with hand written engine rebuild notes and electric wiring diagrams from him. He actually rebuilt the original diesel engine in 1991 and then sometime later he rebuilt 1951 petrol engine and placed it in the car. I actually believe that he had no idea that the car was a Police Car and maybe thought the diesel engine was incorrect as this is one of the only times Mercedes put a diesel from the factory in a sedan roadster body. The car drives well and brakes good. The electric wipers work but they are little slow but the fuel gauge, oil pressure, temp, amp gauges work as with the speedometer and odometer.
