Well. They are not original MB engines, just replacement engines. The
original would have a 638632 casting number. The 908756 is a much later
casting. I would give the date of this engine around 1954 (at the earliest.
The 6-226 Station Wagon and Sedan Delivery had complete engine part numbers
of 908058 in this same time period.) Don't have much information on this
engine. Sorry.
