When we picked up the vehicle... a nice running Unimog with very unique features. A one-of-a-kind turbo, but in definite need of some TLC.

The mog was a prize winner at truck trial events, but the mud and sand were embedded in every part of the vehicle.

The refurbishment process began by cleaning the vehicle and stripping it down -- removing the old bed sides and the wood in the bed.

The front panel was cut down to improve visibility. Rust was repaired and it was primered and painted. A new wood floor was bolted to the frame.

New tail lights, trailer hitch and the two side storage boxes were repaired, painted and re-mounted.

Spare tire was mounted in the rear bed (next to the additional oil cooler).

New bed sides and the rear fenders were repaired, painted and re-mounted. Lots of new paint -- frame, wheels, etc.

On to the cab. Everything removed -- doors, seats -- cleaned and then repainted, new floor mats cut. Front fenders repaired, and repainted.

Shifter boot cleaned and repaired. Diff. lock switch installed to activate front differential locks separately.

Dash cleaned. Non-working instruments repaired.

Seats installed (cleaned and seat bases painted).

New soft top installed.

Doors and window frames were repaired and re-installed.

Hood was repaired and repainted with a gloss paint to match the body.
