This 1966 Mercedes Benz Unimog is a gas six-cylinder-powered truck offered with little info not provided by the photos themselves. We like the civilian colors and simple, road-tractor spec, but lots of questions remain including mechanical health and the extent of potential rust. Find it here on Craigslist in Boise, Idaho for $5,800. Special thanks to BaT reader Taylor B. for this submission.

The dropside bed is a very useful feature, and relatively small tires give the truck a distinct look when compared to many on the market. There’s something funky going on with the canvas top, and photos aren’t much help here. Rust should be any potential buyer’s number one concern, as these trucks are frequently given quick-and-dirty filler and paint jobs to cover previously existing corrosion.

Matching orange interior sheet metal suggests that the color could be factory correct, or possibly applied long ago as part of preparation for public service works. These earlier trucks were often classified as tractors, a description supported by the incredibly crude and agricultural cabin–looks like a lot of fun to us. No engine bay shots are provided, but the seller does list a 6-speed transmission with high and low ranges as well as “two axles”, the latter of which seemed plenty obvious without explanation.

Though “fast” axles and big tires are often preferred, this one is towards the lower end of the market and could be well-bought if everything checks out.
