74' 710 soft top.....15k I developed an attraction to them while living in Colorado. Used to see a couple on some trails during the summer. Guy in denver that lived close to me had one too. I really dont know where to start, but they look like sooo much fun to wheel in.

Had a Land Rover 101 - very similar and also gutless but cool. Those old military trucks get tons of comments & compliments!
BTW, it was the best tailgating vehicle ever made! |
Ive found several in the 9-10 range, and a couple in the 13 range....but this one appears to be in very nice condition. How hard are they to work on and maintain?
|
How about Unimog? That would be one hell of a tow vehicle! I had a neigbor with a Pinsgauer and another of my neighbors used to have a Gamma Goat.
|
Alot of the Pinz showing up on Ebay these days. They're unique but tough to find parts for. The Unimog is way cooler and significantly more capable. My shooting club has one. They had an event one weekend that included some 4wd's. They ended up pulling an H1 and a couple of other's out of one mud hole. It went thru like it wasn't there. Kind of embarrasing to the guy who had a $100K Hummer.

I would love a mog, but they are a bit more money to get into....at least for a multi passenger set up. A bit more on the rare side so it seems too. Both are portal axle, all locking differential, low crawl speed rigs. Most mogs have a diesel motor and the penz's have an air cooled v w' ish motor. It is quite easy to find a cheap pinz finished for troop transport, lots of interior room, or ready to camp.

one of my racing sponsors actally owns one. Says the 6x6 is damn near unstoppable. He's shown me pictures of the thing burried in mud 3 or 4 feet deep and is just keeps on trucking. As i recall the 6x6 isnt; as good rock climbing though becsue it has less ground clearance.
