"A utilitaires eller véhicule commercial commercial in French—a utility or commercial vehicle—rarely becomes a survivor. But this example already is one and also has the potential to remain a fine survivor."

Description

It was delivered new to its first owner on October 11, 1974, by Sandströms Nya Bil AB in Halmstad. The car comes with charming and interesting documentation, including the warranty certificate, owner's manual, and service booklet. The owner ran a carpentry business, and the vehicle has simply spent its life as a hardworking craftsman’s tool with a single owner.

The odometer currently shows 82,870 km, and it is highly likely that the total mileage is 182,870 km. The most recent approved inspection was carried out on March 21, 2013, at 81,980 km. The car was taken off the road in 2014.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine starts easily with a new battery, and the gears shift smoothly via the column shifter once you get accustomed to their positions.

    The brakes are slightly engaged and require an inspection—naturally, the car is in general need of a thorough check-up and service after having been parked in a garage for over 10 years. The rust protection on the chassis and underbody appears to have been applied consciously and maintained regularly.

  • Interior condition:

    The instrument panel, controls, and buttons are intact and functional. The headliner is in good condition, while the door panels show some wear, and the door handle on the right side is missing.

    The seat covers are intact, but we have not removed them since the padding crumbles when disturbed. To avoid a major cleanup during documentation, we chose not to inspect the original upholstery underneath, so its condition remains unknown.

    The speedometer makes a loud noise and displays incorrect values—this is most likely due to a faulty cable, though it could also be an issue with the gears in the transmission or within the gauge itself.

  • Exterior condition:

    The original color appears to be white, and the owner has done extensive touch-ups and sealing work. In addition to paint, various materials have been used to seal areas such as the windshield wiper shafts, fuel cap, body gaps, engine bay, and more.

    The canvas cover is largely intact, but several rubber straps are dry-rotted and/or broken. Interestingly, the car is still fitted with older Michelin X tires—the same type it was likely delivered with in 1974.

  • General condition:

    An exciting and fun passenger pickup with various needs and possibilities. The mechanical work required is essential for passing inspection, while the cosmetic improvements will depend on the new owner's definition of "representative" and "presentable." However, one thing is certain—the car has strong enthusiast potential, no matter what.

Facts about the model

The Peugeot 404 pick-up, designated as model U10 and known in French as camionnette bâchée, was introduced in 1967 for the 1968 model year. Built on a ladder frame, it was designed as a sturdy and reliable work vehicle. It was available with both petrol and diesel engines and had a payload capacity of just under 1,000 kg.

Its robust construction and relatively simple mechanics made it popular in many parts of the world, especially in Africa and South America, where it became renowned for its durability and long lifespan. Production continued in several countries long after the passenger car version ceased manufacturing in Europe in 1975, including in Argentina and Kenya, where it was built until the late 1980s.
