Re: Post Pinzgauer Project

Work has continued on the van. A bed platform has been constructed bolted into the existing cargo tie down points and the sides carpeted and cargo D-Rings installed. The bikes will fit even with the bed in use.

Re: Post Pinzgauer Project

The conversion has started. A swivel has been fitted to the passenger seat so that it can be swung around to face the back when camping. This will allow two people to sit opposite a table whilst freeing up the rest of the space for the bed and storage. Most of the work though will be hidden. Insulat...

Post Pinzgauer Project

So with my Pinzgauer sold the gap has been filled with a VW T5 4Motion The plan is to make it a true multi purpose vehicle with the ability to carry two mountain bikes internally, sleep in and carry all expedition gear. The vehicle is deliberately on-road orientated with no suspension lift and at th...

Re: Expedition Pinzgauer 710K for sale

[quote="Haf-e"]Also - Those guys in Germany (Seikel) do offer portal axle box conversions for the VW T5 vans - so it should be qualified to be on this forum! This highlights the point I made; it becomes tempting to try and re-create the off-road prowess of the Pinzgauer when, of course, if...

Re: Expedition Pinzgauer 710K for sale

I have been so heartened by the feedback and comments, both whilst owning my Pinzgauer and even now upon it's sale. I'm sure many other Pinzgauer owners have at some point moved on to other vehicles for various reasons. I know the lucky ones simply add to their collection, but I have neither the mon...

Re: Vehicles seen whilst on "Nordic Tour"

Sorry don't know what tyres were on the Volvo. Massive tyres are the norm in Iceland.

Sprinter super jeep, a "solar powered" Mog from Scotland (no not really but they did have a lot of solar panels on the roof) Some other nice Mercedes, Zeatos and more Unimogs

Lovely spot to breakdown though right next to the fjord. Only problem was DHL taking 6 days to get the parts to us (so much for next day...
