Vehicle description
This is a Czechoslovakian made 1955 Tatra 805 military truck. Very similar vehicle in size to the Mercedes Unimog.
This truck is powered by a 2.5 liter air-cooled V-8 Hemi motor. Yes, you read that right. Light weight independent torsion bar suspension, positive camber wheels, portal axles, fully lockable differentials, 4-speed transmission, 2-speed transfer case and a 12 volt electrical system. This technology was light years ahead of it"s time for the 1950"s giving this truck unstoppable off-road performance. This is a turnkey vehicle, street legal and licenced in Ontario. It runs, drives and stops perfectly. All electrical works. The rust you see in pictures is surface rust only. All the steel on the truck is in excellent condition, no thin spots or rust perforation anywhere.
The attached Youtube video is taken of this very truck in the Chech Republic before it was imported to Canada some 15 years ago.

The Tatra 805 was a low production truck limited to only 7,214 units, produced between 1952 to 1960. It is an extremely rare vehicle to find even in Europe. Running trucks range in price between 20,000 and 40,000 Dollars. Transportation of such a large military vehicle along with import costs, duties and taxes to North America can cost upwards of $10K. Therefore, please keep in mind that my asking price represents only a fraction of the true value of this historically significant and fully functional vehicle.
