A unique Mercedes-Benz 220D from 1971 transformed to a pickup has been listed by Sedgefield Classic Cars.

The vehicle was initially a sedan and has been converted to a sporty looking commercial pickup. What’s more interesting is that it is powered by a Lexus V8 motor with an automatic transmission. No technical details are available.

The seller says the Mercedes has a “good paintwork and interior” and “drives very well”. Currently located in South Africa, the pickup is up for sale at 75,000 South African rand or around $6,850 (5,340 EUR) at current exchange rates.
