710M rebuild

Sounds great! I did it this year and plan to go again. A cakewalk for a Pinz.

This roaming rally looks great. No ego required, just a Pinzgauer and some friends!

Swisha Loop is on my list as well - starting easy before hitting Gravenhurst rocks
Overlanding is perfect in a Pinz as the back is a great sleep/storage platform.

Where did the matching diamond plate door panels come from? I would love to have me some of them for the front and back doors on my 710K.

Not sure about these ones, but I know Knuckledown has them on their website.

knuckledown is dead
Andre fabricated mine and can make them for you and powder coat if you like.

Out Friday in the Pinz as it was a wonderful 70+ degrees out (today is in the low 30's)!!
My daughter and I stopped to get a road side snack and were eating in the back, or at least trying to eat... every couple of minutes someone would come up and comment or ask a question about the truck. My daughter loved answering all the questions and corrected a few that thought it was a Mog . I enjoyed watching my 10 year old explain things!
Two women, who are starting a tour company up North, made me an offer to buy it.
Such a blast to drive and I enjoy meeting people who are interested in it.
Still fine tuning the EFI setup as it runs to rich when hot, so I am doing some crash course learning of EFI programming/adjustment.

Get used to offers to buy it. I average one per outing. Did get 4 one weekend. I've even had people follow me into parking lots to ask questions.

After driving the older 6 Vets in the Remembrance Day parade I ended up with 5 of their great-grandchildren filling all the empty seats for the trip back to the Legion for lunch. BTW parade speed was low range, 1st gear, not much above idle.

I stop any offers to buy my Pinz... instantly .. by comment on "9 miles per gallon" fuel economy.... its not tha bad but i just say it.!! 4 dollar a gallon down here its no joke

Made a new knob for the EZ power steering sensitivity controller

Yes that looks better and also allows easier visual verification of the assist setting. Good job.

Thank you - it is basically a new Pinz as everything was restored or replaced.
It is away for the Winter (salt) and I can't wait for Spring!

Wow Dan! Looks amazing!

Are you signed up for the RR 2017? Don't think I can attend this year...only RR I did was on a bike...but you will definitely be a hit!

Do well at the RR and maybe it will increase the potential sale price of mine!! LOL
