Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Not trying to troll here,but Jeep guys ask for it. I parked next to a Jeep in my Jimmy today that had one of those silly "It's a Jeep thing...You wouldn't understand" banners on the windshield. I'm sorry,but I get tired of the Jeepatude. I had a thought to get my own banner made for the Jimmy that reads "You're right...I don't understand...at all". If I was into pasting crap on my stuff I'd do it,but I have more class than that...justa passing thought. But,seriously,the best Jeeps have everything swapped-in off a Chevy...or GMC...or Ford...or Dodge

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I agree Special K, I have had a 56 Willy's an 81 CJ8 (scrambler) and an 81CJ7 with a 360 and 13" lift all over built, but still went back to a Chevy, just can't help it.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

The cream always rises to the top…. Took me 25yrs before I wised up and came back to GMC/Chevrolet :banghead:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Scout/IH guys (I am formerly one) have a phrase about the Heep community, though I'm sure some thin-skin would be offended were I to post it here.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Scout’s rule : :metal:

Back-in-the-day we spent allot of hours bouncing along power line roads up in the Oregon Cascade MT’s in my buddy’s 1964 2wd Scout.

Interesting fact: International was the first to build the modern day version of the SUV, factory tricked out Scouts came out long before Blazer’s & Bronco’s ever thought of it.

It was a sad day when International stopped building their smaller vehicle line :flag:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I stay away from those wanabe jeep clowns too! but I like my old willys.my next 4X4 build {after my 52 GMC} is a 72 chevy cummins conversion. I am a big scout fan too especially a well built scout 80.4X4

I agree. Mine is mostly gm and a little ford. No dodge parts.. yet anyway:lol:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Ouch! Still won't give up my CJ5 and will keep it all AMC/dana, weaknesses and all. (Won't give up my Chevy's as well. Just ask the wife!) Hope you had a great holiday weekend.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Yeh,I wasn't meaning to come down hard on Jeeps. I like them. It's some people,and what's up with window banners that invite a reaction,anyway? It just screams attitude and I'm always ready to had such a person their hat :cool:. Not to stray too far,but it's like those Calvin sticker. My reaction when I see him pissing on a bowtie is ,"Well,piss in you a-hole". I just think the world needs less attitude...or at least keep it to yourself,like I do (till I see that chit). I'm not into pasting my mind on my vehicles. I'm into Willys and wish I had one or ten. The late Willys was a 'Jeep'

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I once owned a 1952 M38 Willy’s, it had been a 24vdc radio jeep

I wished I still had it. Bought it from the Civil Air Patrol in 1981 it was an #10. Sold it to my cousin & he still has it. It was a bad-ass rig with water proof ignition, I used to swim it across rivers never knowing where it would land.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I have to say that out of my 3 jeeps I just liked them, not the Jeep thing, there are Chevy guy's with the Holy attitude, which is fine, takes all kinds with all kinds of rides, they can all be fun, stock, built, just nice to have something in out motor sport.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I have an attitude. I like what I like and if you like something else,that's cool :cool:

If I could have one of everything I would. I like a lot,but choose GM trucks as my one and only,since I can only have a few.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Pretty much anything can be cool if you have the skills, Jeeps included...but not many things actually turn out cool when looking at all builds, just alright.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Amen, brother; I second that :mm:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I have had over 120 cars and trucks, some were really ugly but not for long, do have to say about 70% were some kind of Chevy/Gm product, they are so easy to make parts fit and also sell easy.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I've lost track of what I've already shown at this point,so I scouted out more pictures:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Wow! those are some clean scouts!

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Scouted out, good one, nice trucks, my favorite is the first.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

WE had one growing up as a kid too. Had a pto winch also. We ended up with two spares because the electrical and associated parts (sealed wiring etc) were so expensive. Great rig, even with the stock super torque 4cylinder it would climb places the guys that had converted to v6 or 8 could not go because they would break traction.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Yep,the ole tractor concept...gears over HP. Doesn't hurt 'em being so dang light either. My li'l Samurai was like that. You could stop on a 45 deg+ hill,then just get going again light no big deal (in Lo4)

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Got room for one more? 1985 may not qualify as "vintage" but it's largely the same truck Jeep introduced in 1962 or so...maybe it can be grandfathered in.

As I bought it:

As it sits now:
http://www.sv3power.com/wp-content/u...421_194317.jpg

And, being an AMC product, there are a few GM parts in there. Of course, there are also a few from Ford/Motorcraft, Chrysler, and who knows who else...

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Not bad for a "Rambler" truck. ;)

I recall wheeling w/J-20's . They were a going set up

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Well Jim your old truck reminds, of a 54 manufacturer 4x4 Chevrolet that ran around the city where my mother in law and father in law stay until the mid 90s. Some of the people, around city informed some amazing experiences, about that old truck.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

All the classics I keep finding around here seem to be the type with four legs carrying opium so how about some American muscle!

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

That is a classic I hope never goes out of style;

Thanks for everything you do, so my family & I can sleep tonight :flagw:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I love the old jeep j trucks wish i could find one here not rusted to hell.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Earlier this year I did some work on the 1966 Kaiser I posted back on page 15. It's another I use for daily driving.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Just read through this thread. Lots of great pics! I did notice that we seem to be lacking mention and pictures of the Nash Quad. 100 years old last year. Pretty advanced for the time.

I love these pictures

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I never knew about these Zukes. i want one!

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Seems like all the KOOL stuff is always built over THERE...

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

makes me want to find a Samurai,stretch the frame and build a box/close-in the cab. I love the utiltarian pickups,like FJs,but this is tiny. If I go economy I want to go all the way. I'll always have a big truck for when needed

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Loys of Zuk's in my area, they use them like quads with wide tires for floatation, work great. A few FJ40's too.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

AMEN on that one :metal:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Out in Arizona for a conference and marveled over this '59 4X4 that I ran by every morning.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I like the FJ-45's, are there any up thar?

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Is that a seat in the bacK :ito:

Interesting, not a lot changed in 100 years in the suspension department, they got it right the first time.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

This thread should be a sticky. I had a heck of a time finding it. I don't thnk I showed this Ford Ranger (Marmon-Herrington)
