The Half-Track Fox is one of the most remarkable off-roaders ever. Built in the early sixties, it’s an early Volkswagen bus with four axles, twelve wheels and two rubber tracks.
It was designed for climbing snow-covered mountains, but only three were ever built. One of them has just been restored to its former glory – and it’s featured in the new issue of 4x4!
By comparison, the Land Rover Defender 90 SV was positively common. A whole 90 of those were made. We’ve got the story of how one of these has just been restored, too – and modified at the same time.
Staying on the same theme, we’ve taken a look back at the day when we drove a brand new 90 SV back to back with a modest Series I on Land Rover’s own Jungle Track. And there’s more nostalgia in the story of the late, lamented Trophée Cevenol, an epic lane run in the mountains of the Ardeche, as well as the first time the original Daihatsu Fourtrak come to Britain.
