1966 3.0L Diesel Mercedes-Benz Unimog 404.114 - This truck is also listed locally and this listing can thus be removed at any time.
VIN: 404.114-043266 (The side window shown in the picture is NOT included as it is now part of another Mog for sale. The cab doors are included.)
I bought this Mog in The Netherlands and shipped it over to Houston a few years ago. It has been imported as a farm/off-road vehicle so there is no title. It does come with German "Bundeswehr" papers, hich could be used to get it titled.
The typical Mog characteristics:
- Rear wheel drive that can be shifted into 4-wheel drive on the fly (at any speed) and diff lock front and rear (also on the fly)
- 6 forward speeds and two reverse
- Removable doors
Custom:
- Mercedes-Benz Diesel engine conversion (engine# OM617.910.12.000293) from a sedan (most likely a 300D) - Starts and runs great.

The engine is inserted straight up and not on a 15 degree angle. This way no oil pan mods necessary.
- Converted to 12V so only need one battery (new Optima yellow top included)
- Custom stainless steel bed with fold down sides and ramp for ATV, obcat etc.
- Bed sides are removable as shown. Tail gate is included but due to the ramp does currently not attached to the bed.
- Modern style fuel tank built in between the frame rails for optimal protection
- Continental 12.5R20 MPT tires with as-new thread, ee pix.
- Ball hitch and (hidden) stock military pintle hitch
- Vertical tail pipe
- Electric fan that is manually switched on/off (great advantage)
- Throwing in two original "jerry" gas cans with spouts
- some spares available that can be added for an additional price.
- Its an outside truck. So there are rusted areas, ee pix. Most areas are just surface rust. The 404s are notorious for cab rust as its made of 50+yr old sheet metal. The core of the 404s (engine, rive train, rame, tc.) have proven to be much more resistant to rust. I have many 404s and this one is no exception to the rule :). So the core is in good shape, ut the sheet metal parts have rust. It might look rough but this is a very capable truck, n any terrain.
- Engine bay wiring could be cleaned up a bit. Front driving lights and dash lights work. The rest (rear, rake, ndicator) are not working (i suspect needs hooking up as wiring seems to be in place).
