Spent late hours last nite reading up on G wagens.
Now I have to get one.
Are there any older G wagen owners out there /here who can give some knowledge on owning one?
And any good places to find one???

I saw 2 on flea bay, one in Luxenburg nad one in Canada.....

Lots of folks with much experience with older G's here:

I've been driving and servicing them continuously since 1984.

Thanks. I have an 85 300D which is very reliable. Since you have plenty of experience with G's; How would you say the late 70's to mid 80's are as far as reliability?
I would imagine if I work on my 300D I would also be able to do the same on a G wagen? as far as parts and maintenence...
Thanks.
and good links,
Austin

I have one for sale in MD, send me a PM or an email (jimbo1907 (at) comcast.net) if you want to know more. It's a 230GE.

EuroTruck Importers here in Georgia has G-Wagens, Unimogs and Pinzgauers. They have filled some of the void left by Europa.
