1958 "unimog" w/ 44" boggers on kijiji $8500

Not my first choice of color. Doesn't look like a Unimog I've ever seen, looks more like an armored vehicle, or some backyard frankenstein considering those rear windows.

Oh boy what a beauty! I know those look like portals under that maybe 80's chev pick up frame. A 280s I believe is a Mercedes engine but what the f#*k is the rest that we're looking at???? Wow!

Looks like a 'mog to me...

We put that truck on display at Motorama one year, it attracted quite a bit of attention, it even got a couple Hooters girls on it. He used to be a member, haven't talked to him in years though.

[Mitko]

know the guy and the truck; home built on unimog chassis.

 

[junkpile]

Huh, mystery solved, thanks for clearing that up Mitko.

 

[Farm Boy]

Yup, Mitko is right. Top quality workmanship for anyone that likes this type of stuff. I was talking to him a couple weeks ago, apparently the tires still have the tits on them. Doesn't get used much and I'm pretty sure it's always stored inside.

His new project sounds sweet

 

[Jimbog]

It was an awesome truck, he did sell it to someone in Montreal for $6500.00. That was a hell of a deal!

In the end I should have bought it just for the axles and tires and put them in my buggy, portal axles both with cabled diff locks, brand new 44" boggers. You can buy all kinds of parts for these now to convert to disk brakes and 16" 8 bolt rims, also to convert the torque tubes to regular driveshafts. I kinda wish I did buy it.
