Cool pic, Peter. How'd the panzer perform? Also, can't expand the pic on my phone. Looks like a British bike ?

A few more displaying the capabilities of the Panzer

Hauling off the old fence



Hauling off lots of yard debris and recycling



Hauling of about 2000 pound of concrete. That really tested its limits.

Hey Euromedic,

What kind of trailer hitch did you install? Was it a bolt on, or did you have to have any welding done? I may be looking to go this route too.

Thanks

Henry

Really, I love estate wagons. I think they look soo good.

Here's a few pics of my new wheel change out. Ditched my powdercoated TSW Crofts and the black/white "stormtrooper" look and put some Bremmerkraft BR05's on. Staggered fitement: 18"x8" -32ET front and 18"x9" 35 ET Rear. Had the first batch show up with the fronts noticeably darker than the rears. I am assuming the wider rears came from a different lot. All the same, Tirerack sorted it out and sent me matching front color wise.

Because Benz SUV's can look the part;

It is an acquired taste, yet I do love the design of the G wagon. Its not one of those soccer-mom type designs.

Thanks Koop ! I'd really love to do an AMG front/rear aprons and sides but with a 9 month old little dude, the mod funds are going to strollers, car seats and all kinds of WHACKED stuff you never in a million years would think you would be buying....

thanks Frank. yea, I am not a huge fan either. this is my third set of center caps and i am not completely happy with any of them. The stock bremmerkrafts = fail. My factory silver stars = decent but too much silver all together. May give the blue star stockers a shot. One of them has got to be to my liking....

Hey Hank, sorry about the long time. It is a Curt hitch i bought off Ebay, similar to this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2001-...item3f0673792f

Took me about 2 hours to install, some drilling involved into rear bumper metal frame.

Can't go without posting in this thread too:

The DogWagon received some new kicks today :-)









AMG replicas with Hankook Ventus V2 225/45/17. Yes, a bit high in the front. Will be remedied soon.

Here's mine.......

I just put H&R Coilovers on it this past wekeend. Unless it settles more, the front will need to come down about a half inch and the rear may need to come up just a bit.
