G´day,

This was taken at Hans Baur´s place (www.orc.de) in Germany. He just finished this conversion, fitting the Tibus (www.killeraxles.com) 4" bolt-on portals.

Everything sorted and ready for the big adventure early 2012.

I have more images, but am writing while driving, so I´ll post them later.

So long,

Robert

Uuups, sorry :coffee:

I knew he wanted to do this since we spoke about the portal stuff 4 years ago in Syberia. 2 years ago I proudly showed him my truck and now this...

I have tons more images for a reportage I want to do.

I also have great images from his Pur G with the Maltec (www.maltec.org) expedition cabin, if you like? From the striped and cut vehicle to the finished expedition camper.

So long,

Robert

Robert!

I can't believe you've started a thread in another forum that I'm going to be checking every hour to see if you've posted more pics.

You're ruining my life, man!


Cheers,
Mark

:eek: :yikes: HOLY awesome G-Wagen BATMAN!!!! At first I thought it was an Entdecker or something like it, I didn't see the portal axles... That is SO AMAZING. I just asked the fiance if I could buy a G-wagen and she said if I could make it look like that one I could... AWESOME. Now to go rob that bank I've thinking of to pay for it HAHAHAHA. That is a truly awesome truck. I'd hapily drive that for the rest of my life yes please and thank you mam... Does ORC have anything up about the conversion or do you know of a place where there's more info on the truck??? That's pretty much the perfect overland rig right there if you're not wanting something the size of a Mog/box combo.

Cheers

Another side view..

There will be a full feature on these G wagons next month.

The portals are ready to go and this is one of two build for lucky customers.

That´s nothing compared to what happens when Hans Baur (ORC) builds a long wheelbase G wagon with the carbon-fibre expedition cabon from Malte Asmus (www.Maltec.org) and Wolfgang Tibus´ bolt-on portals...that really is mental and almost beyond imagination....

To top that off you can only look at the expedition/hunting Haeglund the Hellgeth brothers (www.hellgeth.de) just build for a customer. Beyond anything I have ever seen or could dream of before I saw it in their workshop...
