The four-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 2,287 cc. At 7,300 mm long, 2,080 mm wide and with a 3,750 mm wheelbase, the vehicle weighs 2,248 kg unladen, with a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg. Top speed is 160 km/h.
The type designation 35S11 follows a pattern common on light-truck chassis, where the first number indicates gross vehicle weight in hundreds of kilograms and the second the engine output in steps of ten hp, which matches the recorded 3,500 kg here. At 7,300 mm long against a wheelbase of only 3,750 mm, the vehicle has a long overhang, the kind used for bodies with extra storage space or specialist coachwork.
When buying such a bodied chassis, assessing the chassis and the body separately matters most, as the two parts age differently and can come from different makers. The joints between the chassis frame and the body should also be checked for corrosion and loose fasteners, as these transitions are a known weak point on special bodies, and any signs of frame twisting after long service should be taken seriously.
