:cool:

I'd still rather the unimog I think, it's a bit simpler, and easier toget parts for.

101 Forward Controls are common :)- the 2B and especially the 2A are much rarer. The 109 wheelbase also makes these nice for building a camper, providing the engine is changed (they didn't come with a V8 - just the teensy 2.25 or 2.6). Mine has had a 4BD1 transplant, and a Rangie cog-swapper. It goes most places - tricky tracks no worry, although trees too close or overhead can clearly be an issue.

I know someone over here that has (had) a IIA or B not sure which. He was trying to sell it a while ago, dunno if he did. I could find out if anyone is interested. I saw it a few years ago and it was in pretty good nick.

Unfortunately my wife doesn't share my passion for them, says they're ugly as sin and she wouldn't be seen dead near one.

Some people have no taste :angel:

I've always thought I must be really strange because I reckon they are the most beautiful vehicle ever built. (Including any Aston Martin which I also like). :eek:
