Well the SEE has been sold and delivered to it's new owner. As always it was sad to see it go but sounds like it is off to someone who is going to get more use out of it then I would be able to. Well on to the next project.

Interior is back together.

Adding a few more pictures of the SEE. Have the interior out now to get one of the seats redone and to make it easy to clean and work in the cabin. Got some rust spots that will need some work too.

Hoses replaced. Cross over lines for the boom cylinders had some sort of sealant used on them that had to be taken out with a dental pick but other then that they went right in. Now just waiting on the right tools to do the other two.

Well got a few things done on the Unimog today. I started changing out the last of the original hoses that had dry rotted. Thankfully most every hose on this machine has all ready been replaced by the army. There are only 8 left that need to be replaced. I got six of them off a new ones built...

Well after a brief 3 years I got the Unimog back in the shop. I have come to the decision that it is going to be time to sell it. It is a bummer because it is super cool and only has 450 miles and 50 hours on it but I could use the money for other things and I don't really use it enough. Took...

Did only a little work today due to the cold weather. I fixed the mess of wires that was the starter switch and got the starter cover back on. The cover is going to need some work to get it to fit right again but that will be a project for another day.

Good news! The SEE is up and running. For the first time it was the easiest to replace and cheapest part that was the problem. It was the #3 fuse for the starter switch about 70 cents at the local NAPA. Once it was replaced (it is the red fuse in the photo) the SEE fired right up. Did not have...

Clinton, I took out all the relays on the firewall and cleaned them but did not seem to make a difference. I ordered some new relays and I will try replacing them. The only thing I was able to get done was to take the batteries out and charge them all night and I was also able to find all the...

Well I have been away from the forums for awhile now due to me having a little girl but now I have a new MV project. Just Delivered this morning a Unimog SEE. A quick look through and things don't look too bad. All the Fluids are fresh and several new body parts have been added. Now for the...
