1974 710M for sale

I am thinking of selling my 1974 710M. I have owned it for about 12 years and have had it serviced by a master mechanic in San Marcos CA who does full Rolls Royce and Jaguar restorations. I have a back injury and parked it two years ago and I think its finally time to sell it as my back isn't gettin...

Re: Finished work on the 710

I bought the truck from Scott, I think his last name was Simon? Good guy. I bought the truck from him in AZ. Great truck but it needed a little cosmetics which we just finished. He made the brushguard. I think he still checks this forum out and he is also friends with a few guys on this board. Maybe...

Finished work on the 710

I just spent a few months fixing up my Pinz. A few of the things we did. 1. Line X the back floor and doghouse as well as the cage behind the driver. 2. Removed the rust underneath the windows. 3. Repainted the whole truck. 4. Replaced side rails with black hard rubber side rails. 5. Powder coated t...

Re: Side Rail Replacement

All look good but I am usually a guy who keeps things stock.

Maybe I will sand mine down and see what they look like..

Side Rail Replacement

I have a 710M and my side rails are looking a little worse for wear. I am debating whether to try and find new wood ones, new rubber or metal, or sand down the ones I have a repaint them. If anyone knows what the best way to handle this is, please let me know. Also, any sources, prices would be appr...

Re: Intro and Questions.

I drove in Justin's truck last week and it seems to run really well. One thing to consider: I tried to rent the same U Haul trailer and they said nothing with tires over 31 inches..

Re: Tire Question

I had Justin come by today with his 710 and we took it to my mechanic. Same gear whine so he isn't panicked anymore. Justin has Rhino lined his bed and mine is stock metal so his was a little quieter but not too much different. I am finishing up the rust at the top of the doors and powder coating th...

Re: Upgrade from the Pinzgauer?

If you don't want to spend the 300K for that vehicle you can always get one of these..

I have one and it is pretty cool.
