1981 G-Wagen camper on eBay

**Riptide** · 05-30-2012, 01:18 PM

Just saw this on Bring-A-Trailer...

Needs a little work, but would make a GREAT project; it's 90% there. And only 12K miles on it!

Mike Hiscox, you know you can't resist...

such as ?

If you look at the ebay seller history, a bunch of parts he/she bought are on that rig. It needs work and would require a thorough inspection.

12k miles on an ex-military rig seems too good to be true, for one thing. Maybe 12k miles since the Europa import/conversion, since they probably installed a US speedo (and the mileages are listed as Miles, not Kilometers)?

Besides, I didn't think Eurpoa dealt with military surplus trucks, but I could be wrong. Weren't they the 'only' importer of new G's before MB made US-spec models?

I dunno. I can find US military vehicles being auctioned off all day long with very low miles. That didn't surprise me...

Joaquin, what seems fishy? I thought it looked legit, but what do I know...

I dunno; sounds like resistance is perhaps in order.

Besides which--didn't you hear--I've reformed. Probably. (OK, maybe.)

I like that you're thinking of me, though.

Can't help it. I get worried about you when the number of vehicles in your signature line drops below 4...

Time to put the sidecar rig and the Big Ruckus back in, I guess. Or buy a G-Wagen.

Don't tell me the Sami's gone again??

**zimm** · 06-07-2012, 12:05 PM

whats odd is, i believe europa quoted me 75 or 85 G for this rig when i inquired a few years ago. the email chain is archived somewhere. if i have time ill find it.

was this truck purchased? the auction is closed.
