here ya go, i was on one of my daily websites and i found this video and i thought hey i should show the other guys on the forum.

http://www.guzer.com/videos/4x4_climbs.php

this is what i want to base my next crawler on it might be alittle too top heavy but i have some x-factor axles i want to use in a new project so hey why not. first i guess i need to buy a couple hundred feet of brake line to do that chassis/ body. i mean it is like a freakin bus.

Looks like it could be based off a Forward Control from Land Rover.
Man you have a sharp eye! :flipoff: How could you have missed that MB emblem? :lol:

Oh and the only way a Rover is making it over that ledge is by being dragged behing that Mog. :flipoff:
 
it is a custom 1966 unimog 404, driver's ed 4 door doka soft top. It was built by a guy in Colorado, I am leaving his name out beacuse he does not want a barage or e-mails. It had custom fuel injection, resivoir shocks, exo cage and a crawler box, ratio on that truck was about 756:1, he could climb anything. :mrgreen: he is a super nice guy and one hellva builder. he now sports a much bigger and badder 4 door doka cab U1300 L-38, it is of the charts as far as abilty. I will see if I have any pics. Hummer, rover, pinz, nigga plezzze, it's a UNIMOG, is there any other 4wd?


here is his new ride.

For some reason I thought they were for plowing fields and such.

They have stores in Africa? Let me guess the Mogs put them there?

How is it then that 90% of the undeveloped world has seen a Rover as it's first vehicle?

Easy, none of those people are educated, ofcourse they think it is a 4wd, no one has ever educated them any different. :mrgreen:
