MODEL HISTORY & PRODUCTION
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, often referred to as a G-Wagon, short for Geländewagen / terrain vehicle, is a mid-size four-wheel drive luxury SUV manufactured from 1979 to the present day.
As a suggestion by the Shah of Iran in 1972 (a significant Mercedes-Benz shareholder at the time) development as a military vehicle started as a cooperative agreement between Daimler-Benz and Steyr-Daimler-Puch in Graz, Austria. Subsequently, after extensive prototype testing in the German coalfields, Sahara Desert, and Arctic Circle, the full civilian-version G-Wagon production commenced in 1979.
With its pressed steel bodywork bolted to a box frame chassis with enclosed side and cross-members, and durable beam axles, the first models had power outputs ranging between 72hp and 102hp and typical climbing ability of up to 80% and a tilt angle up to 54%
In 1980, the G-Wagon gained its global fame when the Vatican took delivery of a specially made variant based on a 230 G cabriolet. With a clear thermoplastic top, it served as the Popemobile when Pope John Paul II made his first visit to Germany.
The first major refinements were introduced in 1981 as the G-Wagon made the transition to a more luxury-lifestyle based vehicle with its genetic underpinnings of outstanding off-road performance. These initial improvements included automatic transmission, air conditioning, and more comfortable seats. Subsequently, a continual cycle of development and the introduction of a myriad of different models and configurations has seen the G-Wagon go from strength to strength and become an iconic luxury SUV.
Since 1979, over 300,000 units have been produced, and today the range-topping AMG G63 is available with a 4.0 litre V8 twin-turbocharged engine producing 577 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque.
THIS VEHICLE
Based around a usable original 1989 Mercedes Benz G Wagon 280GE, the owner sort the services of a marque specialist to fully restore with a complete body and chassis off restoration over a two year period, with every component seen or unseen restored with a number of upgrades and modifications.
This Short Wheelbase Station Wagon 460GE three door version was ideal as a donor vehicle, and perfect for a full body off restoration with enhancements and upgrades. The standard M110 petrol engine was considered too sluggish so it was upgraded to a 605 250 turbo diesel engine from a later Mercedes-Benz and mated to a 6 speed manual transmission and tall gear high ratio axle.
Key features of the restoration were:
- Full component & Chassis / Body Off Restoration.
- Chassis bead blasted & etch primed with Glasurit 2K paint.
- Bodyshell acid dipped & etch primed & painted Glasuirt 2K paint.
Please enquire for more information.
This vehicle is available for viewing in the UK on an appointment basis, and would suit an enthusiast or collector with whom this vehicle will represent a good acquisition opportunity.
WARRANTY & FINANCE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.
