Sent to me by my dad. Looks kinda like a Pinzgauer but that doesn’t seem quite right.

UPDATE: Thanks to Spridget, it’s a Haflinger, a tiny off-road army truck which according to Wikipedia, was the design basis for the Pinzgaur and was light enough to be carrier by “four strong men”. Also, it’s got a rear mounted flat-two. Sounds like something from the FP’s “ !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .”

That’s a Haflinger, a mini Pinzgauer!

Pinzgauer’s hobbit cousin.

Called the best offroader by some due to its short wheelbase.

Neat. Other than a tight breakover angle, how else does a short wheelbase help?

I think it’s mostly breakover angle and small turning circle.
