The Pinzgauer/Puch 710 is one of the most capable all-terrain vehicles ever made. While not as fast (68- mph) as an American Humvee, it can carry more troops. Even the smaller 710M can carry 10 people. This 4×4 can tow over 11,000-lbs It has a range of over 249 miles on one tank of fuel.
The Pinzgauer was designed to be reliable and easy to fix; it has an air-cooled petrol engine with dual-Zenith 36 mm NDIX carburetors. The engine in the Pinzgauer was specifically designed for the vehicle; it has more than one oil pump so that the engine will not get starved of oil no matter how the vehicle is oriented.
The Pinzgauer has a chassis design which contributes to its high mobility. It has a central tube chassis with a transaxle which distributes the weight more evenly, and keeps the centre of gravity as low as possible. The differentials are all sealed units and require minimal additional lubrication.
This Pinzgauer 710 was completely taken apart and all worn parts were replaced with new old stock or good used parts. The body was soda blasted, what little rust it had was repaired and the body was sprayed with a Kevlar reinforced bed liner material, followed by industrial black. The trim was sprayed with semi gloss black. This truck was restored about 5 years ago by a local car collector and was driven around town often. The owner also enjoyed taking this truck off road. Parts are readily available from many sources in the USA.
