Some will say '73,but I don't see any big change there. In '80 Ford stepped into the modern age with styling. After all,it was the 80s!!! :lol: GM did with a new front end,but it was still the same overall truck since '73. I feel GM went modern then,just more gradual since it was so much earlier. Ford kept the overall outline of the late-60s trucks (that wasn't all that different from the 61-66s) till '80. Really,ever since Ford bodies went square in '58 they made gradual transitions and kinda kept a similar shape through the years.
BTW,I always liked the 58-60s.

My 1956 International S-120 factory 4x4 doing what it was designed to do...hauling a nice cow elk to the processor. Truck is now owned by a close friend of mine. 350 Chevy engine and a chevy truck 4spd.

The second is my 1949 Jeep while antelope hunting in Wyoming.

A little while back I added another 4x4 to my motorpool.
It is a 1968 Baifield M274A5 Military Mule.
Electric start, optional tire /extended fender package, with 4 wheel steering.

The military hoped this would replace the Jeep, to say they were greatly disappointed is an understatement = short-lived production

Well it was old metal not new fiberglass and it was a 4x4 so it sort of counts. I think?

cAlvis165;5811520, sweet IH! Does it have a Rockwell 108 rear?

The rear is a RA-15. I know this is what IH put in them from the factory, but I'm not sure if they manufactured their own, or had it made by someone else. The 4.88 provide lots of oomph with the big tires, but the four speed transmission limits me to ~50 mph. :rolleyes:

I've been following your Cummins Longhorn build. Love the compounds and look forward to seeing it finished up! :metal:

You are correct. American Motors bought Kaiser/Willys in 1971 and built Jeeps until Chrysler bought AMC in 1987. You are correct, I used to wheel with a lot of FJ owners back in the day. Funny thing is they had to put a Chevy engine in them to make them half decent . . . .
