which pinzgauer in stock condition is worth the most ?

[norcal pinz]

:?: :?: :?: :?: :?: sorry no diesels or halflingers

I am guessing it's a supply and demand thing. Of the ones you listed the 712K seems like the rarest. The holy grail of Pinz's is the 712DK I believe. I was thinking there is only 1 of those in the US.

I believe there are two now. I think Scott sold one on the yahoo forum not to long ago. But probably only one in the engineer anal condition. Norcal this has been done before. search the forum

But probably only one in the engineer anal condition.

Is that a form of hemorroids? Is it something only engineers get? What kind of engineers, the train driver kind or the ones that build stuff? Is it contagious?

Just wondering.

[Erik712m]

I Believe it's an abbreviation of the following:
1 analysis

2 analyze

I here this saying all the time. ( That engineer is just being overly anal. It's ok that the truss is two inches off its load bearing point) In this point, I would think it would be that his pinz has been over analyzed and maintained. He is "anal" retentive about the maintenance.
Andy is your mind in the gutter?

I was just going by what was written on the screen. Way back when I went to school we were told an abbreviation requires a period after it. I searched mightily and could not find the little dot so ergo given what was written I could only surmise that this was some sort of new medical condition that afflicts only engineers. Given the subject matter is not something one is likely to be informed about by the main stream media. I was concerned since I know several train driver engineers and wanted to warn them if it applied to them.

[Erik712m]

Well, Andy I went to public school what can you say. Got love Government employees. But in this point you are wrong. Anal has become slang there for no little dot needed.( AS it forms a word in its own) Although ideally the anal would have been before engineer it still should have made since if a little common since would have been applied.

1. Abbreviation 33 up, 2 down

A shortened form of a word or phrase.

Types of abbreviations:

There are four main kinds of abbreviations: shortenings, contractions, initialisms, and acronyms. 1 Shortenings of words usually consist of the first few letters of the full form and are usually spelled with a final period when they are still regarded as abbreviations, for example, cont. = continued, in = inch. In the cases when they form words in their own right, the period is omitted, for example, hippo = hippopotamus, limo = limousine. Such shortenings are often but not always informal. Some become the standard forms, and the full forms are then regarded as formal or technical, for example, bus = omnibus, taxi = taxicab, deli = delicatessen, zoo = zoological garden. Sometimes shortenings are altered to facilitate their pronunciation or spelling: bike = bicycle2 Contractions are abbreviated forms in which letters from the middle of the full form have been omitted, for example, Dr. = doctor, St. = saint or street. Such forms are invariably followed by a period. Another kind of contraction is the type with an apostrophe marking the omission of letters: can't = cannot, didn't = did not, you've = you have. 3 Initialisms are made up of the initial letters of words and are pronounced as separate letters: CIA (or C.I.A.), NYC, pm (or p.m.), U.S. (or US). Practice varies with regard to periods, with current usage increasingly in favor of omitting them, especially when the initialism consists entirely of capital letters. 4 Acronyms are initialisms that have become words in their own right, or similar words formed from parts of several words. They are pronounced as words rather than as a series of letters, for example, AIDS, laser, scuba, UNESCO, and do not have periods. In many cases the acronym becomes the standard term and the full form is only used in explanatory contexts.

An example of an abbreviation is abbr, which is short for "abbreviation".

I know I need to stay out of this but, great humor Andy. I cant stop laughing.

[Erik712m]

Andy, If you were being funny I apologize. I just got home a little bit ago from three days in a very cold tree followed by a long Pinz ride home.

My humor may not be very good right now.

[andy]

Buzz...and why do you suppose you couldn't but in? You, and anybody else are always welcome to comment, positively or negatively. I'm not sure if it was humor or farce though.

per ASME Y14.38a-2002?

[ScottishPinz]

Yes hard top 6x6 for sure, same here in UK, what it would have been interesting to see is HOW much MORE than a 710m these are worth! Funny thing about the often overlooked amb is they are only a couple of roll hoops and a canvas away from a 712m or a cheap starting point for a custom hard top. Here I'd guess:
710m £7500
712m £9000
amb £9000 these are still coming from Swiss so 2nd owner to you and me
710k £10500
712k £14000

They are still a very rare vehicle so its hard to be sure!

[Jim LaGuardia]

712MK, or 712W, both rare and retain value well. Seems your list is a little short

[norcal pinz]

ok sorry guys that poll sucked, what i was really wondering is would it be a good idea to trade my k for a 712 of equal condition????? :?: Scottish pinz said the k is worth a little more if so that is awesome.

[ka]

is a 712m noticably slower at accellerating than a 710m? i know the 712 has a lower geared tranny so its top speed is like 5 mph less, but i've only ever driven a 712amb and this 710m, never a 712m.
