Hi Eric,

The one on the first picture , the 16" is in private hands now. Its has i blieve around 40.000km on the clock!
I saw this van about 5 years ago and then it was in top condition! For sure the cleanest orginal 16" van i know off in sweden.

That singlecab 14" fire truck (pic taken on vanfest 2008) resides now in the netherlands.

Winter takes it toll on the Backmobile from DEnmark.

Thankfully the driver is OK.

I believe it is or else someone else put pretzel stickers (all the way on the left about mid-height of the photo behind the door on the lower body) on their T3 box truck.

I don't think it's the same truck. If you look at the picture with the damaged vehicle there is a Bell of some sort just above the passanger side cab. Its painted dark, the one in the last picture its painted tan. Were there a fleet of Das Pretzel wagons?

Winter takes its toll? What, was it crushed by a glacier?

the pretzel truck isn't worth saving imho. I may be alone in this, but not all "unique" vehicles are valuable.

I agree, not too much demand for that thing, and the damage looks to be pretty extensive. you could sell it to somebody who wants to fix it.

Or just leave it wedged in the ice and turn it into a cheap rental property.

And a lot of valuable vehicles are less interesting than this one. Its not just value but also the interesting points about a unique vehicle that should decide if its saved or not. Sentimental value is also a factor, imho Smile

Cheers,
