rare doorless hard top 710 (710MS?) on youtube

Post by bonefish635 »

Most of the trucks shown playing here are the usual Ms or Ks, but one has the K's hard roof with no doors. From the title of the video I guessed it was a 710MS.

Anyone know anything about that variant? It would reduce the effort in keeping my 710K's doors rust free and leakproof!

Actually the 710MS or Amb-Y is not that rare in Europe as a very large part of the Bosnian and
Slovenian Pinzgauers are of this type.

The hardtop itself is exactly the same as any other 710K top. Even the door cutout is there. It is just
closed with a sheetmetal panel. The platform itself is just like one from any other 710M out there.


If you want some more info I have access to a few of them around here.

Any around with a rusted out tub, but a good roof?

Been chasing a 710 K roof ever since saw one for sale on an Austrian website a few weeks back, but was on hold for a customer.

I remember about a year ago a K model that was rustier than the titanic on Ebay, but wasn't chasing a roof back then

Hi Richard,

I've never seen one here in the UK. If I'd known about that layout earlier I wouldn't have bought a K. The side doors add nothing to what I want it for, and the MS layout would simplify bodywork problems.

What would someone have to pay for one of these? I ask out of curiosity rather than real interest. I've invested a fair bit into my K and will stick with it.
