Abandoned almost 40 years: Mercedes 1113 truck is still 0KM

Another stories of a Mercedes 1113 truck that was abandoned. He was found after more than 30 years, still zero KM.

The company Mercedes Benz started in the production of vehicles in 1956 here in Brazil. And his first truck model was the L 312, which was known at the time as the “Torpedo”.

Only after the launch of the L1113 in 1970 did Mercedes gain recognition and become the best-selling truck brand in Brazil.

At that time, more than 200,000 units were sold.

The Mercedes L 1113 truck was produced from 1969 to 1987.

Despite everything, even with this history we know that the truck has always been great to work with. So nowadays it ends up being more difficult to find one of this model that is still whole and preserved.
