As an addition to my PM to addstore. (I,ll probably get lynched for this) but have you considered a SUMB???? there is a company in UK importing the later re-furbished SUMB with Renault Turbo Diesel, uprated brakes/heater and other systems. A SUMB is a little bit larger than a Pinz, has portal axles and a rear Diff Lock, but not quite as large as the more common Unimogs. (I think the Diesel SUMBs are circa £4,000 - way cheaper than a Pinz, I considered one but it is just a little too large to use as a daily driver in UK - its probably smaller than some American pick ups though.

Hi Ka, Dorota says when she gets a minute she will send some more classic car pics. As for the Simca Unic Marmon Bocquet, there,s plenty of info on the net. To find out about the diesel converted ones, look for www.rrservices.co.uk and click on vehicle stock, there you will find the diesel SUMB if you just click on the SUMB you will get the petrol powered ones. (powered by the Ford Flat Head V8 beloved of Hot Rodders the world over. (Simca inherited the rights to this engine when they bought Ford (France) back in the 50,s/60,s. I almost bought one it will fit in our garage but is almost as big as a Mog!!!! There are a couple of Vids on You Tube as well. Regards Steve
