Don't think you'd want to
I think half the rigs on this forum fall into that category…
Rules are made to be broken.
That looks like "Anniversary Gold" available on '62 Impalas. Anybody know if that was a factory color for these trucks later on?
Well, I just ran through a quick rabbit hole. I'm very familiar with the '62 Impala being the "50th anniversary" car, but had no idea about '68 being a "50th anniversary, so two very different years. It turns out that Chevrolet was established and introduced the first Chevrolet car in November 1911, so with the '62 MY Impala being out in November of '61, it was given the 50th anniversary treatment. Then in May 1918 Chevrolet did somewhat of a hostile takeover of General Motors, thus the 50th anniversary of 1968.
I didn't understand that either. Maybe supposed to be 2.6 year build?
Just got back from our first trip to Iceland and saw a bunch of these "Super Jeeps"; note the term "Super Jeep" appears to be applied to any vehicle built for snow/glacier runs. I need to do some reading up on these, as about half or so have snorkels and I can't imagine why, except for maybe spring/summer trails?
One thing that stood out - they all run stock axles. Even the big red one with 45"s ran what looked like factory Rubi 44's.
Man, what I would do for a clean, diesel-powered Land Cruiser!

I've always like their use of giant, wide-body looking fender flares covering giant balloon style tires.
Or do they drive on tyres?

Like this...
My guess on the snorkel is to get the air intake up & away from the snow that their tires are going to kick up. Put the snorkel up where it's not going to draw in the snow.
I thought it meant the build was completed 26 years ago.
Possibly, but why not just keep it under hood like factory? You'll get faster warm-ups (in theory) and none of the ability to suck up snow in a large drift.

Based on what we saw there, I'm sure there's an Icelandic word for tires that sounds like a coughing sound lol
not the best take on a mustang to me either.
