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

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

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

Is that a seat in the bacK

**special-K** · 05-12-2016, 07:03 AM

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)

**Zoomad75** · 05-13-2016, 12:45 AM

Here is a pair of Scouts. I've seen this first one around town where I work. Caught him using our car wash on my way out the other day. Very nicely done. Must have done a lot to keep it looking like most Scouts I've ever seen!

This second one is more in line with what I'm used too for Scouts. As the old joke goes, if you are really quiet standing by one you can hear it rust..

I do happen to know who owns this one. The elder owner of the dealership I work at. The general idea is he got caught up in auction fever. He went to a local estate auction looking to buy some irrigation pipe and a trailer. He ended up buying two trailers, the pipe, a 1946 Chevy two-ton dump truck and this rusty 4 cylinder Scout pickup.

Yes it's rusty. Quarters, rockers, floors, inner bed structure. Ugly. Fuel line was plumbed into a regular 5 gallon red plastic gas can. On the bright side, with nothing more than filling the carb with fuel through the vent and a jump box the half-a-v8 lit right off and settled into a sewing machine smooth idle. He's not sure why he bought it. It is not a candidate for us to restore in the shop though. We plan on getting it running right, drives safe and functions well enough for somebody else to tackle the body. Heck, compared to some of the swiss cheese rides you guys from back east deal with, this baby is cherry!

El Dorado Jim · 05-13-2016, 02:03 AM

cool rigs!!! My son has a 1972 Suzuki LJ20 which is pre- Samurai originally it had a 2 cylinder 2-stroke engine.....engine was bad when he got it and parts are rare, so he just finished putting a 81 Datsun engine and trans in it, it has a divorced trans case so pretty easy to hook it all up...The engine looks like it was made for it, just fits! I will get some pics and try and figure out how to post them....

**special-K** · 05-13-2016, 07:04 AM

Suzuki Brute! Stick it in the bed and haul it to the hills.

RANDY COX · 05-13-2016, 01:52 PM

KOOL I've always liked the Scouts, my uncle used to own a scout2 back when they were made in the 70's it had the soft doors with the plastic around the door area as a fill in panel...I have a lifted one from tractor supply in my car case collection..They were the TRUE 4x4's... All Wheel Drive.....

**special-K** · 05-14-2016, 10:22 PM

More Ford Marmon-Herringtons

bilfman · 05-15-2016, 12:26 AM

Just got this old gal all fired up. Brand new engine and everything is working like a champ.

**special-K** · 05-15-2016, 08:07 AM

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

RANDY COX · 05-15-2016, 09:07 AM

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..

RANDY COX · 05-15-2016, 09:15 AM

Special-K I saved those Marmon's on my comput...very KOOL rigs....

ranger danger · 05-15-2016, 01:08 PM

The 95' Wrangler I built a few years ago. The engine pic shows the hot water shower I built. My wife loved that feature!!

**special-K** · 05-25-2016, 10:38 PM

Very nicely done Jeep.

Here's anothr Marmon-Herrington conversion:

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-26-2016, 01:25 AM

That is a beast!

68panelman · 05-26-2016, 07:19 AM

BEAST indeed!, Wonder what the other beast looked like that loaded those massive logs

RANDY COX · 05-26-2016, 11:39 AM

I bet that marmon had some low gears.. Me likes it alot.

61K10 · 05-26-2016, 11:40 AM

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

RANDY COX · 05-26-2016, 10:42 PM

Not sure if this is 4x4 but sure is KOOL...

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