NMS Airshow Scotland
National Museum of Scotland's Airshow 2014
Mine was the only 'old' Pinzgauer in the ground display. The army had a 6x6 TD towing the 105 mm field gun.

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
Not sure what this bracket behind the rear wheel is for?
Look at the paint colour difference, this was referred to somewhere in another thread.

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
Isn't that the wheel-chock bracket? I bet it has a different name over your way!

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
Yeap, that is a wheel chock bracket.
Interesting is the SDP logo and what looks to be the corner of a plastic doghouse, that would indicate it has a 5 cyl TDI engine to me.
I would have thought it would have had a Pinzgauer logo. But the radiator shroud could have been changed at some time...?
It's getting to I can't tell which TDs have what engine in them from the exterior

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
BTW, that "rusty" piece of metal that appears just under the chock bracket is the rear blackout light that illuminates a white 'paddle' just forward of it, as a marker for the driver in the vehicle behind . On any other MV, they just painted the rear diff cover white
Hmmm, I need to check GG for any other badging. I only remember the one in the grille. My old 716 had SDP badging front and rear

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
Yeap, same as the Pink Cow. I think I still have another of those SDP license lamp...GG's is blank
BTW, I liked the simple, clean winch mount used on the later TDs so much, that I used it as a pattern for on the 716

I think you should be banned from posting photos of a pinz without pics of your girl

Re: NMS Airshow Scotland
Now, I know it's really ScottishPinz. Back to his old style.
Was worried there for a while.
BTW, I think that wearing goggles while driving the Pinz is rather stylish, and further sets us apart from the motoring world.
