64,242 units of the Unimog 404 were built, making it the brand's best-known model.
Unlike its predecessor, the Unimog 401, the Unimog 404 is more of a small 1.5 tonne off-road truck than an agricultural vehicle. It was often used as a chassis for fire engines and military vehicles.
It is powered by the Mercedes Benz M180, a 2.2-litre in-line 6-cylinder single overhead camshaft engine that powered the 220 W187.
Like many of its predecessors, this model appears to have come from the French army.
As a rotary engine, it needs some work to restore it to its former glory, so that it can pass the roadworthiness test and be duly registered in France (VL).
