Got a lot of off road miles on my bus over the last 24 years.
Wish I would had not lost all the pics of my 58 panel in the dirt. |
Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
Cool pre-63 Bus. I'm glad to see someone else who knows these things are great off road. Those reduction gear give ultimate clearance and the rear engine gives excellent traction for such a light vehicle... just like the Bugs. I built my vision of a Baja Bus in the mid-70s...and ended up running down through Baja! I have pictures in P-Bucket if I ever find them. I hear ya on the pictures of earlier vehicles owned. I've had more that I never took pictures of than ones I have, and not nearly enough of most until digital cameras took over. I do have some prints I never scanned. Just need to get a scanner or take them to Walmart to put on disc

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
I hate to say it but those Fodes sure you look Purdy...I would drive any of those beauts..
Funny the Idea did run across my mind to take my 48 chevy fleetline and put the body over on my 4x4 chassis there was only a 3/4" difference in the wheelbase...but the ole fleetline is gone now, but had I had a garage I might have attempted this....it would have been bad to the bone.. |

probably a steam powered winch. They were called a donkey engine i think. Not the whole set-up of course.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes

"Log? I've heard of those. I've been told those were once trees and they grow in a place called a forest?" |

Here's my 1978 F600 with 361, 5 speed trans, and massive 20k Garwood PTO winch.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
Oooohhh, I like it. I like it a lot! Today a '90s IH 4wd conversion heavy equipment service truck rolled by my place that I have never seen before. I'll be looking for another siting. Something I always wanted, a medium duty 4wd.

Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
Yeah, I've always wanted a large factory 4x4 like this Ford, although I have no real need for it. My wife says I'm compensating for something....
I got it off of Ebay for $2500. I put a low bid on it and was the winner, but having it transported to my location was a bit costly. It was used by a fire department back in Tennessee. The body is in great shape with some minor surface rust, but no rot. The cab is filled with levers! A twin stick transfer case, one for the parking brake, one for the trans, one for the PTO winch, and one for the hydraulic lift bed. It even has an aftermarket A/C system, although it doesn't work. Very cool truck! Now if I can only find a use for it... |
Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
I love this thread. I pledge allegiance to no make, this thread reminds me why. Most makes had great a 4x4 model at one generation or another. :metal:
