Hi Guys,

I know I have seen these pics somewhere on the net but can't find them. Truck is a 712 with rear buckets mounted on a 45 towards the front. Any link greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Scott

G'Day Scott,

Is this the vehicle/seating your referring to?

If so its the ALPINE ADVENTURES Pinzgauer!

I actually went on one of their tours last year and was impressed with the set-up. Safer than the original seating (higher support in the back with more of a front-facing configuration), comfortable, still with plenty of leg-room. I took my 5-year old twins with me and we had a great time.

IMHO it would be much more satisfactory for safety and comfort if all seats were fixed in a North South positiion, ie facing front or rear. I would not be happy to carry passengers with seats facing either side ways or diagonally because of the risks of spinal injuries should an accident occur, particularly a head on collision or a shunt from the rear.
