Description

1962 Mercedes unimog custom built 4 x 4Fastest vintage unimog around it goes 100 miles an hour plusSpecial opsSwatMilitary styleBugout apocalypse escape vehicleCustom 4 x 4 cruiserit’s a daily driverCustom built by movie studios for the movie Argo it was made to go down the runway next to 747 taking off at over 75 miles an hourBuilt on top of a 1983 Dodge ram charger 4 x 4 chassis it features a 318 dodge V-8 with automatic transmission power steering and disc brake, they used the whole entire ram charger chassis and added the Mercedes body on top of i, they made it look absolutely correct from the outside so it has all the appearance of a stock vintage Mercedes unimog but has all the dependability and parts Availability of the Dodge ram charger
It has stock Mercedes wheels 20 inch with 38 inch tall toyo off-road tires and those it has stock Mercedes wheels 20 inch and those are bolted to adapters which are bolted to the dodge chassisSo if you want to look cool this is the car to drive around people go crazy for itWe’ve added a 52 inch LED light bar on top and some 9” LED pods down on the bumper and in the rear it has a custom stereo and a police style PA system with siren and horns it also has electric wiper, seatbelts it also has a bench seat in the rear with seatbelts the whole your buddies around and a Hammock inside the rear for when you want to take a nap
It has a vinyl convertible roof that does not fold down but could be taken off over the caband it has a black canvas cargo cover which can be taken off, it also has side curtains for the front doors to try and keep water out and the rainy season
It is street legal and currently registered in California with the title in my name it is titled as a 1962 Mercedes it has a stock vin tag on the firewallYou could fly in and drive this thing anywhere you want to goThe brakes or manual disc in the front and rear drum it does take kind of a strong leg to stop it but it does stop goo, power steering is really easy and it turns left or you can make a U-turn but due to the oversized tires to turn right very sharp the tires will rub,You could correct this with changing to a modern wheel with a narrower tire it would be really easy to do, you could order Rims in whatever size you wanted with whatever offset for the Dodge five lug pattern and get rid of the stock Mercedes rims and the custom WheeladaptersIt only has a working temperature gage none of the other gauges work but it has headlights turn signals brake lights taillights all the front LED lights in the rear LED lights and working wipersIt is using the stock dodge ram charger 32 gallon fuel tank in the rear and you could clean and use the stock Mercedes tanks if you wanted to add on extra range an extra fuelThe paint is satin black and was painted over a military style gray color it does have chips and scratches but I do not see any rust in the vehicle and it has original wooden floor in the bed
The four-wheel-drive does work but you have to shift it from underneath the cab the shifter has not been made to go from the transfer case up into the cab and it needs a vacuum switch for operating it into four-wheel-drive as the Dodge ram charger was a shift on the fly for will drive but I can show you how to hook the vacuum hose up to the carburetor and lock it in the four wheel high or low
So while stock unimog’s only go 45 to 50 miles an hour this thing you can drive 55 miles an hour to 100 miles an hour easilywe drive on the freeway all the time in Southern California traffic does not overheat and you sit up high enough where you can see everything in front of youSo ask all the questions you want I’ll answer really quickly send me your number if you want to call and talk to you we have certificates of authentication from the movie studios and have pictures of it before I painted itThe top can come off and the rear cargo top can come off and it could be modified to fit on a transporter if you need to ship itIt weighs 4500 lbs
