It may surprise many, but Volvo made military trucks in the past from 1974 to 1984. The Volvo C304 was a Swedish marque that supplied vehicles to the Swedish army.
This is a 1977 Volvo RLTGB1312 A MT. It was modified by the owner to make it safer than other Volvos. The Volvo RLTGB1312 A MT is the name of the radical offroader that the owner bought directly from the army. It will be available for sale at EUR13,000, or about $14,100.
The Volvo RLTGB1312 MT Expedition Vehicle is capable of going anywhere you want it to. We believe the seller completely based on the photos. He stated that he had brought the monster at 5,000 miles each to Polar Ural mountains in 2005 and 2006. And that he survived.
This Volvo Volvo has portal axles to provide a high level of ground clearance. Six driven wheels are wrapped in 37-inch mudterrain tires. Each axle has vacuum-locking differentials. The seller swapped the gasoline engine for a 300TDI Land Rover mill, which produces little power but is offset by the truck’s low gearing.
The Volvo TGB1312 is a great buy because it has plenty of living space, including three bunk beds at the back. The Volvo TGB1312 for sale also features a TV and a wood stove. It can also carry 20 liters of water and 5.5 gallon of gray water. Additionally, it has 220-V power outlets that are accessible via an off-grid motor-driven generator.
