Solved: PN #545 -- Ssangyong Musso based special from Australia
« on: September 15, 2013, 04:03:14 AM »
I have no idea who built it, so for a point, please identify the donor and if you feel like it, please add the country where it was built. Hopefully this will be an easy Rookie point

It looks like a long wheelbase for a passenger car - is it based on a Mercedes Sprinter?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

The donor car is a Ssangyong Musso, powered by Mercedes Benz and the grille is from a 1930's/50's Mercedes Benz 170, but I have no idea where it was built or by whom.

Well, that's the long and short of it. It was built in Australia
