    FRENCHTOWN, NJ – When it comes to pristine vintage Geländewagens (G-Wagens), few builders feature the blend of vehicle expertise along with the necessary restoration capabilities of Expedition Motor Company (EMC). Following more than seven years of experience and over one hundred and fifty 250GDs built and delivered, the team behind Expedition Motor Company has a deep respect for the heritage and go-anywhere capabilities of the iconic Geländewagen. EMC specializes in bringing former military G-Wagens back to life—transforming them into luxury, collector-grade vehicles designed to provide owners with a unique, old-school driving experience. EMC’s passion for precision, even down to the smallest components, and dedication to world-class quality, allows them to create the finest G-Wagen restorations in the marketplace today. These restorations not only capture the vehicle’s original character but also seamlessly integrate modern enhancements to add a new level of elegance and style. In this spirit, EMC proudly unveils their latest masterpiece: a beautifully restored 1992 Mojave Silver (mojavesilber; metallic UNI; 859; Mercedes-Benz) G-Wagen, featuring an exquisite Doppio interior and Mercedes’ “million-mile engine,” the OM602 Diesel.

    “We couldn’t be more excited to introduce this new Wolf V5, which is a direct showcase of EMC’s design and engineering prowess. You’ll feel just as at home cruising a beachside highway as you are traversing your favorite off-road trail,” founder Alex Levin comments. “This timeless classic stands as a testament to the unparalleled craftsmanship and attention to detail that our team at EMC is known for.”

    The exterior of this stunning G-Wagen is finished in Mojave Silver, paying homage to one of Mercedes-Benz’ most popular colorways. The “Mojave Silver” color also provides subtle nods to both the ruggedness of desert landscapes and a refined, understated luxury. Named after the Mojave Desert, this color evokes the resilience and natural beauty of an environment known for its challenging terrain and extreme conditions, aligning well with the tough, adventure-ready nature of the 250GD G-Wagen. The metallic silver exterior gives the vehicle a modern, polished look that reflects light beautifully and accentuates the iconic lines and contours of the G-Wagen. It offers a sleek aesthetic without sacrificing its 1990s heritage. This exterior is perfectly complemented by luxurious weatherproof interior upholstery. Adding to its distinct charm, this convertible G-Wagen comes with both a bikini top and a full soft top, offering drivers multiple options to suit their preferences.

    Each EMC build undergoes a rigorous 2,300 man-hour restoration, where every detail is expertly crafted with precision and care down to the nuts and bolts. The process begins with a full disassembly of the vehicle. The body is taken down to bare metal and EMC’s craftsmen hand-mend all imperfections caused by age or combat. The frame is media blasted and receives an anti-corrosive primer and a durable powder coat finish. Other key components, such as fuel lines, brake lines, and body mounts are replaced to guarantee longevity and optimal performance. The factory axles are disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, and meticulously refinished, while the brake system is fully revamped to ensure enhanced stopping power. EMC’s custom-designed suspension is then installed and fine-tuned, perfectly integrating with the vehicle to provide an unmatched driving experience.

    Under the hood of this Mojave Silver Wolf lies a rebuilt OM602 diesel engine, expertly paired with a rebuilt 5-speed 722.6 automatic transmission. Built for terrains of all types, this vintage G-Wagen is ready to take on any journey with strength and style.

    EMC’s All-New 1993 250GD Combines Classic Geländewagen Military-Grade Durability with the Elegance of a Modern Luxury SUV

    FRENCHTOWN, NEW JERSEY – The first-ever Geländewagen prototypes were designed by Mercedes-Benz in the 1970’s with the intention of creating a rugged, capable, and user-friendly all-wheel-drive vehicle that could navigate any terrain for military purposes. In an effort to ensure that these vehicles would perform reliably in even the most dire of circumstances, the first G-Wagen prototypes were tested under extreme conditions in locations such as the Sahara Desert and Arctic Circle. In 1978, the developers of the G-Class performed extensive test drives with the prototypes in the imposing dunes of the Sahara Desert, forever linking the legendary sand-covered desertscape with the most iconic off-road utility vehicle ever designed. In homage to those inaugural G-Wagen prototypes and to showcase the versatility of this world-class, go-anywhere utility vehicle, Expedition Motor Company is proud to reveal the brand-new Sahara Wolf, built off of a 1993 250GD originally used in the military.

    “For this Sahara Wolf, we went back to the roots of the Geländewagen and the extensive testing those prototype vehicles underwent in the dunes of the Sahara Desert, in particular,” comments Alex Levin, Founder of Expedition Motor Company. “In addition to that same reliability and off-road prowess inherent in the original prototype vehicles, EMC has also implemented an array of in-house developed components to modernize the ride quality and overall driving experience.” 

    EMC’s reimagined Sahara Beige (saharabeige; 255; non-metallic; Mercedes-Benz) 1993 250GD Sahara Wolf retains the stout OM602 2.5L 5-cylinder diesel engine paired with a completely rebuilt 711.117 5-speed manual transmission. Each EMC Wolf undergoes a meticulous 100-point restoration process to ensure dependable and consistent performance from every part on their builds. From applying anti-corrosive treatments to incorporating a proprietary suspension system, no detail is too small to ensure this EMC Wolf will be enjoyed for decades to come.

    Designed as a convertible with a soft top included at purchase, EMC’s Sahara Wolf can thrive in any weather conditions. Built with versatility in mind, this completely rebuilt 250GD feels equally at home cruising in a sunny beach town or tackling inclement weather. Other noteworthy exterior additions include a custom-built EMC Bullbar, 3-inch LED Pod Lights for enhanced visibility off-road, a Warn Winch, and an EMC Snorkel Kit. 

    On the interior, EMC expertly paired an elephant gray colorway to perfectly contrast the Sahara Wolf’s sand-like exterior. The New Jersey based G-Wagen specialists further modernized this 90s-era utility truck with a Harman Kardon Infinity sound system, sound proofing, Wireless Apple CarPlay and a full array of creature comforts including air conditioning, heat, as well as front and rear heated seats. Priced at $180,450 and available immediately for interested customers, the Sahara Wolf is EMC’s latest example of masterful craftsmanship paired with an inherent understanding of automotive design. 

    “There is no other vehicle on the planet that pairs military-grade performance with luxury as well as the G-Wagen does. After years of military service, we obtained this 1993 250GD and repurposed it into a luxurious custom-built SUV following more than 2,300 hours of restoration work,” continues Levin. “We own the largest collection of G-Wagens in the world today, and I consider EMC to be the leading authority in G-Wagen restoration.

    FRENCHTOWN, NJ – The Geländewagen (G-Wagen) has earned its reputation as an emblematic symbol of luxury SUVs, with roots tracing back to its military heritage in the 1970s. Initially designed for rugged military use, the G-Wagen’s exceptional durability and off-road capabilities quickly captured the attention of a wider audience, leading to its global popularity as a luxurious consumer vehicle. Since then, the G-Wagen has withstood the test of time, with many original models still in use today. Expedition Motor Company (EMC) is largely responsible for that trend courtesy of their team’s intensive restoration process, effortlessly bridging the G-Wagen’s heritage with the best modern components available. 

    Amongst EMC’s proudest and latest creations is a resplendent 1990 Mercedes Benz 250GD Wolf, boasting a captivating light blue exterior. This eye-catching color option is popular amongst luxury SUV enthusiasts, and EMC offered this colorway as a distinctive way for the client to personalize their G-Wagen. This Wolf also comes with a new offering that will be made available for future EMC builds, an ABS Hardtop. 

    “The G-Wagen’s design has remained largely unchanged for decades, making it one of the few vehicles with such a long production run featuring minimal design alterations,” comments EMC Founder Alex Levin. “In our pursuit of providing a diverse array of customization options, we continuously push the boundaries to meet evolving consumer demands. The introduction of the new ABS Hardtop is a perfect example, offering versatility to our clients across the globe. Rain or shine, no matter where you live, this vehicle can be enjoyed.”

    The exterior of this stunning G-Wagen showcases a China Blue (chinablau; non-metallic UNI; 934; Mercedes-Benz) paint hue that effortlessly catches the eye in any setting. Inside, the vehicle is finished with a lavish mushroom weather-proof interior, perfectly complimenting the vehicle’s overall appearance. The inclusion of the ABS Hardtop enhances the vehicle’s adaptability to varying weather conditions and individual preferences. During the chilly winter months in colder climates, the hardtop provides enhanced insulation and protection from the cold. However, as the weather warms, the removable top allows for indulging in the delights of open-air driving, embracing the epitome of a convertible driving experience.

    As with every EMC build, meticulous attention is given to every detail throughout the 100-point restoration process. To start, the vehicle begins with a complete disassembly and media blasting down to the frame, ensuring a clean slate for restoration. Protective measures are then implemented, including the application of an anti-corrosive primer followed by a durable powder coat finish. Essential components such as fuel and brake lines, along with body mounts, are carefully replaced to ensure optimal performance and longevity. The process extends to the factory axles, which undergo disassembly, cleaning, and a refinishing process. The brake system receives a comprehensive overhaul, strengthened with upgraded rotors and drums to enhance stopping power and reliability. Finally, EMC’s internally developed suspension is expertly fitted and customized to seamlessly integrate into the vehicle, ensuring an unparalleled driving experience. 

    Underneath the hood lies the heart of this Wolf, a rebuilt OM602 2.5L inline-five diesel engine, better known as Mercedes’ million-mile engine. Complementing this power plant is a 5-speed automatic transmission for those who would prefer 2 pedals.

    EMC’s 1990 Mercedes-Benz 250GD Wolf is a Restoration Masterpiece, Incorporating Timeless G-Wagen Design Paired with Rugged Performance

    [source: Expedition Motor Company]

    FRENCHTOWN, NJ – For more than 40 years, the Geländewagen (more commonly known as the G-Wagen) has served as one of the most celebrated adventure vehicles in the world. Built to reliably perform in the world’s harshest, most unforgiving terrain, the G-Wagen has become synonymous with elite performance and timeless style. New this year, Expedition Motor Company (EMC) is proud to unveil the company’s latest G-Wagen masterpiece, a fully restored 1990 250GD Wolf that the restoration firm has playfully dubbed “The White Wolf”.

    Produced for roughly three years in the early nineties, a limited quantity of these 250GD G-Wagen trucks were built for military use. EMC currently owns the largest stock of Geländewagens in the world with the sole purpose of restoring one specific configuration of these impressively capable vehicles: a two-door convertible G-Wagen that is powered by the original five-cylinder diesel engine. 

    “Our goal at Expedition Motor Company is to flawlessly restore one of the finest adventure vehicles ever conceived, the G-Wagen. With more than 40 years since the G-Wagen first appeared on the market, our team dedicates thousands of hours on each new build to properly honor this vehicle’s storied heritage,” comments Expedition Motor Company Founder Alex Levin. “The EMC Wolf features military durability and iconic design, but the best part is that these trucks are so versatile. An EMC truck can go anywhere and handle just about any terrain with ease. These trucks can serve as the ultimate beach cruiser while also being fully capable of traversing a winding mountain road without hesitation.”

    Adorning a sophisticated white exterior paint scheme along with corresponding mushroom-colored vinyl interior, the latest G-Wagen restoration from Expedition Motor Company stands out as a true work of art. As with each of their latest restorations, Expedition Motor Company spent about 2,100 hours hand-restoring this flawlessly reimagined truck.

    Like all EMC builds, this 1990 250GD started its new life with a complete strip-down and media blasting of the truck’s frame before adding anti-corrosive primer and a new powder coat. Brand-new fuel and brake lines and body mounts were then implemented throughout, while the factory axles were disassembled, cleaned and finished with new internals. The brake calipers were reengineered and bolstered with replacement rotors and drums, and EMC’s internally developed suspension is fitted to make this revitalized Wolf ready for modern driving conditions.

    This 1990 Wolf features the legendarily durable OM602 2.5L inline-five diesel engine, which is cleaned and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, timing belt, water pump, and other necessary components. Mated to the stout engine block is the stock 711.7 5-speed manual transmission, which gets disassembled, cleaned, and refreshed with new seals, a new clutch, and a new throw-out bearing. The transfer case receives the same treatment to ensure a completely reliable and enjoyable driving experience.

    “We’ve had several clients tell us that their EMC Wolf elicits a feeling of freedom and happiness unlike anything they’ve ever driven before. Owning a G-Wagen like this is a rare asset that very few others have in their collection, and we take great pride in providing a driving experience that few other vehicles can emulate,” continues Levin. “We fully understand that the driving experience of an EMC Wolf is not for everyone, but for those chasing the authentically rugged experience of driving a go-anywhere, do-anything type of truck, we are able to provide that without question.”

    Expedition Motor Company trucks start at $165,000. For more information, please contact Expedition Motor Company at (267) 714-4112, or visit expeditionmotorcompany.com.

With more than one thousand restoration hours dedicated to the new red Wolf truck, Expedition Motor Company has once again manufactured an effortlessly cool looking G-Wagen more than capable of conquering any terrain in its path.

    The frame and interior of Expedition Motor Company’s Wolf series is what sets an Expedition Motor Company G-Wagen restoration apart from the competition. The vehicle’s interior is finished with go-anywhere, easy to clean brown vinyl-covered seats and doors complemented with bright orange stitching as well as a sleek, spartan dashboard that’s period correct to the original 1990 build. The new Expedition Motor Company 1990 250GD features a brand-new Vintage Air HVAC system, as well as a modern entertainment system that includes Bluetooth, USB and device plug-in features. The frame of this Rubellite 250GD Wolf maintains its crisp, distinctive aesthetic by incorporating the iconic fold-down windshield and 2-door convertible/cabriolet soft-top body configuration. 

    Expedition Motor Company made sure this spectacular 1990 Mercedes-Benz 250GD Wolf underwent a thorough build process. Everything was taken apart and stripped down to bare metal beginning with the body of the vehicle. Anti-corrosive primer is applied after the entire vehicle is disassembled, cleaned, and carefully inspected.

    Expedition Motor Company’s Latest G-Wagen Pays Homage to Air-Transported Military Reconnaissance 4X4s

    A Reborn 1991 Geländewagen 250GD Ascends To Greater Heights After A 1,000+-Hour Revival

    [source: Expedition Motor Company]

    FRENCHTOWN, NJ – Specialists in Mercedes-Benz ex-military “Wolf” Geländewagens, Expedition Motor Company has unveiled its latest custom build. This 1991 250GD Wolf follows Expedition Motor Company’s emphasis on cabriolet models. It underwent more than 1,000 labor hours in the company’s shop, emerging in original Mercedes-Benz white paint with a black soft-top.

    “This latest Wolf demonstrates our highest level of refinement to date,” says Expedition Motor Company Founder Alex Levin. “Our frame-off restoration/improvement process returns the vehicles to like-new condition while adding modern creature comforts and conveniences. The new White Wolf includes side hooks that are not for aesthetic purposes. In military service, Wolfs were sometimes transported by helicopters, so we bolstered the hooks with interior steel reinforcements per the original configuration.” 

    Expedition Motor Company now revives and personalizes the classic Wolfs, particularly the 1990-1993 250GD models – characterized by 2-door bodies with fold-down windshields and convertible tops. For the new White Wolf, Expedition Motor Company began with their standard bumpers and black cabriolet top. Then a few exterior upgrades were added to augment standard equipment such as better-than-factory LED headlights. Aside from the air-lift hooks, the most noticeable exterior accessories are fender-mounted indicators protected by metal guards and the snorkel kit. The rear bumper features lower lamp guards. An optional jerry-can holder with black cannister is another upgrade. Also, the tires are premium BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/As.

    For the interior, Expedition Motor Company created a bespoke yet simple theme. Upholstery and front door panels are marine-grade brown vinyl, complemented by diamond-pattern floormats from Expedition Motor Company’s swatch book of fabrics. The rear cargo area features oak slats, which carry over to the rear side panels. Comfort was improved with a new Vintage Air HVAC system with retro-appearing dash controls for subtlety. Similarly, the VDO entertainment-system head unit looks period-appropriate but includes Bluetooth, USB, and device-input features. A hidden Retro Antenna system eliminates the traditional body-mounted antenna wand. These upgrades raise the White Wolf to a total cost of $92,150, a slight increase over Expedition Motor Company’s $90,000 base price.

    As with all Expedition Motor Company vehicles, the White Wolf underwent a meticulous build process. The base vehicle – imported from overseas military sources – was totally stripped down to the frame. The ensuing multi-month re-birth began with inspection of all disassembled components. Each is then rebuilt, refinished, or replaced as necessary.

    Specifics include media-blasting major components down to bare metal to remove any corrosion. Rust-inhibiting primer is then applied. Select parts such as the frame are finished in durable powdercoating for enduring corrosion-resistance. Other metal parts such as body panels and drivetrain-component housings are professionally finished by Expedition Motor Company with premium automotive-grade paint. Following accepted concours-restoration practices, all rubber and soft parts such as hoses, bushings, and body mounts are replaced with new components. Similarly, the suspension is revived with all-new Eibach springs and modern-tech Bilstein monotube shocks to optimize ride quality both on the highway and during any off-pavement excursions.

    For Wolf powertrains, Expedition Motor Company remains true to the Mercedes-Benz pedigree by retaining the original numbers-matching components. The Wolf’s factory Mercedes-Benz OM602 2.5L inline-five diesel enjoys a reputation as one of the most reliable engines of all time. As with all Expedition Motor Company builds, the White Wolf’s existing engine was disassembled, cleaned, refinished, and rebuilt with new gaskets, seals, belts, pumps, and whichever internal components need to be replaced. The engine is then tested in the shop and then on the road prior to customer delivery. Similarly, the factory 711.7 5-speed manual transmission was disassembled, cleaned, and inspected prior to being rebuilt. A new clutch, seals, and throw-out bearing are part of each job. The transfer case and locking differentials received the same meticulous attention.

    The White Wolf represents the current state of the art in bespoke 250GD restorations. Although Expedition Motor Company specializes in the 2-door/cabrio decommissioned Wolf models, the company can also source hard-top versions for customers as desired.
