1983 Mercedes-Benz - 1222

Fahrzeugbeschreibung

1983 Mercedes-Benz 1222 Fire Truck, finished in white/red with a black interior. This Mercedes is a German-spec fire truck. Imported from Germany in March 2020 by the seller, it’s equipped with a metric instrument cluster, and its odometer currently shows approximately 43,100 kilometers, which represents about 26,800 miles. This truck reportedly served with the Sindelfingen fire department up until 2017, when it was sold as a surplus vehicle to a German dealer. The most recent German “TUV” technical inspection was performed in 2019. It’s presented in its stock fire-fighting spec, which includes a PTO-driven Ziegler water pump, a 1600-liter water tank, or approximately 352 gallons, 4 containers of foam suppressant, working sirens and beacons, 2 ladders, and more as listed below. The fire truck also offers seating for 9 occupants in the rear cab, which still carries some of the original tools, as well as lots of storage space in the exterior side compartments. The Mercedes “NG” series of trucks -short for New Generation- became famous for their durability in the 1980s as they worked tirelessly in every industry imaginable, serving as haulers, dump trucks, military vehicles, and of course fire-fighting machines. Power for this Mercedes-Benz 1222 Fire Truck comes from a 10.8-liter diesel V6, rated at 220 horsepower. Output is sent to all 6 wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission and a dual-range four-wheel-drive system with locking center and rear differentials.
