Flashback June '92: Gerhard's Homebuilt Winch
Four Wheeler
|August 2017
In the June ’92 issue of Four Wheeler we featured Gerhard Schipp’s ’82 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser.
What was special about it? Well, just about everything. You see, Gerhard was a toolmaker that lived in Gothenburg, Sweden, and he fabbed almost every added-on component on the Cruiser. Even the winch.
Yes, you read that right: Gerhard designed and built the rig’s winch. As you can imagine, this was no easy task, and it took two years between planning and execution. Maybe necessity was the mother of invention here because, at the time, purchasing a winch in Sweden cost upwards of $2,500.

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING
I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
