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

That is a wild Scout! Does it have the Nissan Diesel in it?

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

We had them in my unit, prone to tranny housing cracks with extreme use. Complicated enough we were not allowed to do more than routine maintenance at field battery level.

It’s been over four decades, but I was assigned to a Field Artillery Battery & there was some of these critters around. Thought they were going to be cool, found out different :waah:

We did not have them in our Field Communications (wire) squad, others had them in the Fire Control Observation squad, I know they did not enjoy them. Seems to me there were concerns with the Articulated section (electrical connections & possibly steering link failure…)

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

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

It's a Ford body

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I've really enjoyed looking through this thread! Here's mine. It's a '65 International harvester 1 Ton. Has a Dana 70 in the front and a IH axle in the back and is currently sitting on 38.5 tires. I am slowly restoring it as I use it to haul firewood and such. Currently has a 304 V8 but I would love to have a diesel in it some day. :metal:

LOL! I still have my military training certificate on that guy. The Gama Goat was fun to drive!

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Does this count

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Oh hat counts, looks like it will go anywhere it's pointed.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

ABSOLUTELY,POSITIVELY....:chevy:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

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

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

What are the specs on that classic iron?

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

It's a 1951 GMC with a 74 3/4 blazer chasis. 38.5 boggers, 4.10 gears, 350ci, sm465, np205, 6 inch lift.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

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:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

That is beautiful... GMCs are my first love. :lol:

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

The IH Corporate RA rears are brutes. If I remember right, they manufactured their own. There is also a 4.30 pig (as well as 5.57, 6.17 and 6.72) available for them...changing gears is hardr, because the ring is RIVETED to the carrier.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

I LOVE the black 67-72!!! hope you don't mind if I steal the pic for my inspiration :metal:

I have had a few Jeeps and that is a very nice truck, very nice.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

Very good looking Jeep

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

This thread is bad Arse! subscribed can't believe I never saw it before

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
 

That's one fine example of a Renegade! Better than factory,yet very original looking,and certainly reminiscent of all those I recall from those great old days! My best friend's first 4wd was a gold-ish green-ish '73. I remember the tires were really aggressive and called "Mud Wompers" and he liked to womp the mud :cool:. That one would probably not have made a good candidate for a restoration
