    I didn't know Pinzgauers were built in the UK. Swiss Army had tons of them. 4x4 (like this) or 6x6.

    The only pic I could find in my collection of a Pinz. This is the special ambulance version. You had to be careful with this one in the terrain as it had a tendency to topple over.

    Thanks for that post!

    That picture has an eerie feeling to me because the Pinz stands in the middle of what looks to me is "John Wayne" shrubbery and land. In my mind, I identify these cars with Central European terrain and fauna.

    Secondly it is amazing how well kept this car is. As was the one that was originally spotted and started this hijack (apologies). They look absolutely pristine just like when we drove them. People must have kept them more for fun than to do real labor.

    Pinzgauer as a garage queen, there's a new concept! :)

    Hey dont give up ! I had an Engine replacement last year, during summer so i know how it sucks to not have the car when weather gets nice..You can still fix it and enjoy lots of months of driving !

    If its the fron diff in the G, just take it off and have a RWD G :)
