:D found these about 20 years ago , and they've hardly moved , well the rolling cassis has been moved to a better barn , no sign of the cab
(convertible) the one with the cab is fitted with a tipper body , petrol ,
These unimog fire trucks would they be fitted with the larger 2.8 engine ?
might it have a PTO ?
Where to find the chassis no for finding the age ?

anyone know of any of these 404s that were rebuilt by a firm that used to advertise in the farmers weekly in the mid 80's , they used to rebuild them ,,they fitted them with VM 2.4td engines and a GRP cab ?
i've had a go at buying these in the past to no joy, owner either not wanting to part or a high price , not sure what he'd value them at at the moment ? ,

Re: unimog ex fire plus chassis

:D with a bit of luck will be getting the above unimog with lots of other parts in next few weeks , was put on hold as been very busy , plus just got this

:D Found this about 20 years ago been in a nice building for nearly 30years ,Munga Auto Union Which was part of mercedes ( i think ) latter took over by VW and the follow on of this vehicle was the iltis :D

3 cylinder two stroke took a couple of days to get running but did not want to buy if coud'nt hear it going ,, very compact engine that runs realy sweat ,,the vehicle is in great condition with very low use

Think it came over from Holland in the late 70's ,after very little service ,,
chassis is very good , suspension parts look the same front and rear so could be made to have four wheel steer 8)
