Portland Oregon Pinzgauers???

I am getting very interested in getting a Pinzgauer just from what I've learned online from a variety of sources, but I have yet to see one in the flesh or have a ride. Is there anyone in the Portland Oregon area who wouldn't mind showing theirs off?

I guess there are some gatherings coming to Portland in six months or so, and I will definitely be there, but I'd love to see one sooner.

As I've posted on another forum, I am thinking about trading in my Toyota FJ80 Landcruiser which I thought I would never part with, to get a Pinz. I only really need one good 4x4 (or 6x6?) truck.

Maybe a 712M, or I kind of like the 712K converted to a 712M with side doors... (Forget whose that is right now.) And the 712 Ambulance turned into a removable camper, with "M" fittings for when I'm not using the camper, would maybe be the ultimate.

If I got a Pinzgauer and got too busy to work on it myself, does anyone know a in town who would/could work on a Pinz? Someone who knows something about them, does good work, and won't charge me the purchase price every time they see me coming?

Get onto the Pinzgauer groups on Yahoo. Lots of great people there. There are a lot of Pinz owners in the Portland area and most of them go to Northwest Mogfest. www.northwestmogfest.com I know there is a Pinz owner in Washougal too.

There is going to be a national MVPA convention in Portland
I''l be running a convoy of European vehicles up to the MVPA convention from Northwest Mogfest. NWMF alwasy takes place the third weekend in August. It's an event you don't want to miss if you have a European military vehicle.

trscott- Just buy one, you will not be unhappy. I have had mine for over 2 years and it has been the best used vehicle I have ever bought. It is so much fun that my neighbor has bought himself one. I have never found anyone who did not enjoy a Pinz. Check out the real4x4forums.com web site. Lots of good info and nice folks. What are you looking for, 710 or 712?

Ive seen the pinz parked down a long driveway in Washougal, I have always meant to try make contact with the guy since I live close to him.
