Vehicle Detail
1961 Mercedes Unimog 404 Fire Truck This CLASSIC off-road utility truck screams expedition potential. Whether you're interested in overland tours, off-roading, back country travels, classic fire trucks, or simply vehicles that turn heads - this truck is for you. Aside from being able to go almost anywhere by design, this vehicle is near mechanically perfect - quick start, smooth idle, smooth shifts and a perfect drive for a truck of this size and age (thanks to Jim Laguardia from Goatwerks for the minor tunings it needed!) I encourage anyone who might be interested to contact him for his unbiased opinion and details on the mechanical condition - http://www.goatwerks.com/contact_us.htm I'm also happy to answer any questions that I can. Less than 10,000 miles 6 cylinder gasoline engine 2 reverse gears 6 forward gears Locking front and rear differentials New Pertronix Ignitor (as recommended by expedition imports) Perfect seats Passenger side flood lamp Passenger side roof hatch 3rd Passenger seat and roof hatch Original Mercedes badging (metal) New roof hatch seals Newly powder-coated bumper and tie-downs Front PTO Perfectly running PTO pump and hoses 300 gallon onboard water tank Nearly new Continental tires and spare Very little rust New mirrors Dual gas tanks ALL interior, work lamps, and siren signals function Original stretcher and hose tools/accessories Complete shop and operating manuals And much more! The vehicle is currently in Los Angeles, CA and could be shipped or driven to about anywhere in the US. After searching several years for the right and under-appreciated unimog, I purchased this one and have loved everyday with it - knowing it only needed the basics when I bought it. Sadly, just as the summer ended, I took a job in NY and am being 'forced' to sell SIMPLY because this kind of truck doesn't work in a city like Manhattan! I would love to know it will go to someone who can treat her well - overland tours, as a collector vehicle, a surf and ski truck - even as a now popular food truck, this unimog needs to be seen!
