Munga's in Canada
Sometime in the early 1980's a batch of Mungas were sold surplus in the Winnipeg, Manitoba area by the German army who had used them during training at CFB Shilo. I would appreciate hearing the full story on the release of these interesting vehicles in Canada from anyone who can fill in more details.
I have one of the more common 4-seater models. The tiny 3 cylinder 2-stroke makes a great show-and-tell event and it pushes the Munga along at very respectable road speeds. When parked beside an Iltis the lineage is very apparent, especially in the frame design. The main difference in appearance is because the front fenders on the Iltis were filled-in with integral stowage bins. .....Brian
