Has anyone seen an actual factory Checker Marathon Cab with a diesel?

In case you dont know what a checker marathon is, its that vehicle that is comonly known as the checker cab. they were made by a private company in michigan. they were almost the same from the 60s till 1982 when they ceased production.

in the late 60s they used perkins diesel. supposedly they used some old gm olds diesel in the 70s but i havent found any official literature on those. i have always wanted one but i have never seen one anywhere.
