A G-wagen I had.

I'm going through some old photos and found these of a G I partially restored (it didn't need much). Nothing too exciting but I liked this one more than some due to the cool red color and lack of any extras, like the often seen fender flares, extra bumpers, aftermarket wheels (these are stock, mil. ...

Re: Gauer Garage selling winch bumper... $2,250

Apparently a childish reaction went overboard on the forum and unnecessary things were posted with some being deleted. Sorry but for the second time this year (with many many years of it never happening) I am deleting another account. Opinions are hard to take sometimes but they do need to be dealt ...

Hopefully everyone on both sides are better off with this thread being locked and one account being permanently deactivated (a VERY rare occurrence).

I'm looking in the thesaurus for better alternatives to the word "impressive" but maybe I'll stick with that one for now!

Re: Gauer Garage selling winch bumper... $2,250

and slams others builders!! Don't like their selling tactics and I question their design - width, weight, winch placement and their asking price! Oh and for that price you may need to tweak it a bit when mounting :shock: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PINZGAUER-710-712-WINCH-BUMPER-CUSTOM-UNIMOG-4X4-MILIT...

Re: Volvo C303 w/ Chevy V-8 on Ebay

Re: Pinzgauer Cost in 70s?

An experienced body shop guy painted another G-wagen I had some years ago. He had to cut some rear panel metal out to fix some rust. When I showed up to check on things, he cussed at me saying he ruined two or three air-chisel bits while cutting the panel out and had never dealt with metal that was ...

I need one of these for the Gwagen so I can fit a 5gl can back there and maybe a high-lift!

Biggest POS ever?

'70 Subaru 360

Not exactly a 4x4 but... I just saw this very cool 2cyl. Subaru at a car show. I hadn't seen one before that I can recall.
