IIRC 61-65, maybe even earlier, Mercedes diesels came with manual transmissions that'll bolt right up, at least according to shopforum (you would probably want to do more research if you pursued that), and most of those earlier cars were manual as opposed to automatic. You should be able to find a rusted out pre-66 manual Merc for ~$500 or so sooner or later.
