I was just doing a search for: "How to mount a dozen lights, Mercedes emblem, 2 ammo cans and a useless little good for nothing solar panel above the windshield" ...and that G popped up! Go figure.

Well the guy has switched from a g-wagen to a sprinter van now for expressing his creativity:

Oh, my... Don't you just love that bathroom wall treatment, and the extra mirrors hanging from the rack?! But wait, there's more!

I can't believe this is a real thing. :o

I'm trying to follow some of the logic here.. any theories on the chains? There appears to be a 2000lb winch stuffed behind the bumper, judging by the micro-fairlead. And is that PVC pipe on the sides? Amazing.

Points scored for originality... and that's it.

I especially like the lights in the side bars, begging for the first gravel to come from the wheels to break them...

Also, the lights above the windshield, shown in the "map reading" position :lol:

Maybe they drew inspiration from the Quadrophenia motorcycle?

What's the contraption behind the rear ladder? Two chains and bungee cord? Washing line? Come to think of it, why two ladders? What's the tube under the rear end? Storage?

Lots of "What's that"! on this vehicle!!
