Camper Mog's been sold to an exceptional new owner. Information at the bottom.
Here's an opportunity for someone looking to do anything from serious long-term vehicle-dependent expeditions to weekend camping . . .
I'm rarely using my unique expedition-quality Unimog motorhome and so would like to sell her to a knowledgeable new owner. She has a 14 foot long, insulated aluminum-skinned cabin built in 1995 that's mounted on a 1977 416 Unimog traction head. Zweiweg coach-built the amazing double cab that provides tremendous headroom and visibility, along with sliding doors that lock open while driving. She's set up now for two, but was designed to seat and sleep four (and I have the rear cab air seats to reinstall). Probably the best cab-cabin passthrough around, as you can walk throughout cab and cabin with just a drop of the head.
She has about 70K miles on her, with an 8 forward/4 reverse transmission, fast axles, and an OM352 engine with usual mods. Fully self-contained with every amenity and many nice modifications. Carries 140 gallons of fuel and up to 100 gallons of fresh water. Comes complete with shop manuals, much spare gear and dozens of detailed and interesting technical drawings used for her construction.
She's a superb compact motorhome for general use--arguably as quiet, comfortable and smooth-riding as any Mog--but she's also a Sahara veteran that readily could do it again. Either way, I'm hoping for a new owner who'll make good use of her.
There will be no government hassles; she's titled, registered and plated in Oregon as a motorhome, and she can be driven home from Portland. Building her probably cost a quarter-million or so in 1977 dollars; we're asking for about $40,000 turnkey.
There is an album of seventy-some photos, along with informative captions at:

Please give them a look and if you have any interest, let me know what questions I can answer. Thanks.
