The first prototype under the designation Š 979, which differed in body design, was built in the spring of 1957, this prototype was powered by an engine from Škoda 1201. In cooperation with ČZ Strakonice, the Š 998 agricultural vehicle was to be built on the Š 1203 chassis in the manner of the German Unimog, completely however, only 23 examples were produced. Production in Trnava was only stopped in 1999 due to sales difficulties for these already very outdated cars.
