Designed for the Modern Day
The restoration process for this 1993 convertible G-Wagen involved over 2,500 hours of dedicated labor. Every element of this G-Wagen was carefully restored, replaced, or upgraded, maintaining the original character while seamlessly integrating modern upgrades to enhance comfort and performance.

- Upgraded OM602a Turbodiesel engine

Timeless Appeal
The Midnight Blue exterior presents an understated yet sophisticated color profile, accentuating the classic G-Wagen's iconic design lines. Paired with a dual-tone Pecan/Sailor interior, this combination delivers a refined and balanced aesthetic. As with all our vintage SUVs, the build includes two versatile soft tops, a bikini top offering an open-air driving experience with coverage for the front two passengers, and a full soft top equipped with roll-up side curtains for customizable weather protection.
One of the most unique parts of this build is the fact that it is a very rare variant of the W461 G-Wagen: the Luftlande Wolf. This version of the 250GD was built and designed by Mercedes-Benz for helicopter transport. It came equipped with reinforced side hooks mounted to the body, providing additional anchor points for underslung airlift operations. We have retained this feature as a part of this restoration, honoring the legacy of the ex-military G-Wagen.
Carefully Crafted Interior Comfort
Inside, the cabin of this 2-door G-Wagen maintains the original functional simplicity and charm of the classic Mercedes convertible design. Carefully selected modern amenities are seamlessly integrated to enhance usability without compromising authenticity. Features like USB and USB-C charging ports, a responsive Wireless Apple CarPlay touchscreen, and a thoughtfully placed audio system reflect our focus on modern usability within a heritage vehicle.
Upgraded Drivetrain
At the core of this build is the upgraded OM602a turbodiesel engine, renowned for its reliable performance and smooth power delivery. Coupled with a Mercedes 5-speed automatic transmission, the drivetrain has been rigorously rebuilt and tested by our experienced in-house team, ensuring reliable operation and long-term durability.
