The movie Thor which came out last weekend prominently features a Pinzgauer in many of the scenes on Earth. Expedition Imports in Vallejo built 4 identical trucks for the movie. They started life as 710K hard sided radio trucks and were modified with a fiberglas grill to look like the later 716K turbo diesel powered trucks. Here are some links that cover the mods and fabrication they did.

There are lots (relatively speaking
) of Pinzgauer owners that hope they will make some of the mods available to the public. The front and rear bumpers look pretty cool.
