They sure do. I know about those RH drive Jeeps. They were made bt Mitsubishi, I think. They, or whoever it was, bought the design from Willys. Flat fender, like CJ2As, right? So that dealer is in Radford? These are Brazilian. Here ya go, feast your eyes:

They have some cool stuff there. While I'm on foreign jobs...

**landy** · 10-23-2017, 10:23 AM

The yellow four door is totally cool. Is that a Russian make vehicle?

mud.man.rj · 10-25-2017, 02:47 PM

Tell us more about it Special-K, is that stock as it sits or lifted, very interesting.

**special-K** · 10-30-2017, 11:12 PM

I don't know much of anything. I've had that picture a while. I believe it is factory-built and is Russian. I'd have to look for the brand name. It's three letters

**special-K** · 11-01-2017, 07:56 PM

A Ford I don't think I've showed

**special-K** · 11-04-2017, 07:46 PM

That's a tuff fire truck. Here's an old guy

mud.man.rj · 11-05-2017, 01:55 AM

Saw so many of these old trucks growing up being 56 now, were just trucks doing their job then but now they just seem so much cooler and with style.

**special-K** · 11-05-2017, 11:26 AM

I get a lot of nostalgia out of the early 4wds from visions of my youth. They weren't so common back and were bought out of need for the utility. I think it's cool all the attachments that were made using the truck as a mobile power plant, same as tractors. Things like 3pt hitches and PTO driven apparatus.

**special-K** · 11-05-2017, 09:58 PM

Hey that's neat. Has he had it long?

**mongocanfly** · 11-05-2017, 10:35 PM

I just realized I goofed..that truck is the one I bought for a donor...his is identical except his is short wheelbase and red where that one is blue...although the red is long gone....and yes..its been in the family since 1959 or 60..if his memory is correct...
when dad bought his farm he needed a truck so he went to a farm auction that had 3 of these IH's for sale...he bid on all 3 winning none...he had x amount of dollars to spend and just lost out...as he was leaving a guy followed him to the parking lot and wanted to know if he still wanted one...he said well yeah thats why I was bidding..turns out this guy bought 2 of the 3 and only wanted 1...so he made a deal with dad and dad brought the old truck home...its been in the family ever since...
.affectionately called "Columbus" by my mom...because she said the truck was so old it looked like it came over on the boat with Columbus. ..

**special-K** · 11-06-2017, 08:35 AM

It may very well have!

**mongocanfly** · 11-06-2017, 03:31 PM

yes sir...that's the way dads is/was painted. ..that's a 59 or 60 model..that's when they went to dual headlights and the different grill.thats the same (59) front end dads has on it after he wrecked it when a steering knuckle broke on it...i was in the truck with him when it happened...i was a small kid but i remember it....and that's a deluxe model that has the chrome trim on the doors...
very nice restoration. ..

B. W. · 12-17-2017, 12:39 PM

'56 Willys, Super Hurricane, all stock with Warn overdrive. Lined up for the 4th of July parade. Remember it was right at 100° that day. Was my daily driver for years, always ran no matter how cold (even 25° below) heater worked good too. Don't know why I sold it. One of the few pics I have of it. It's a shame I never thought to take any. The older kid just graduated from Montana State as a mechanical engineer, young kid on the fender just graduated infantry training at Ft. Benning. No idea where my youngest son was, he's still hard to keep track of!

**special-K** · 11-12-2017, 10:13 AM

Wouldn't that be handy. It's short, but heavier with bigger dump body that a light duty about same wheelbase. Tougher drivetrain for bigger snow, too. Even the flow frame is tucked up close. I'd own it!

Dig this '50 Reo Coleman conversion

Greg58 · 12-14-2017, 02:08 PM

Here is a 1977 Ford F-250 4x4 that I used to own. It started out life as a Fire truck with a utility box on the back. Later the Dept. decided to purchase an aftermarket 8' box, and repainted it Black over Red to match some other engines. I bought it in 2001 with 13k miles on it, however it had been overheated and had 2 cracked heads on the 400M engine. It also still had 16.5" split rims. So I sourced 2 good heads, and put new rims and tires on it. I enjoyed it for a time, kept the miles low, and then sold it. It was cool but just wasn't a GM.

Orange Crate · 12-15-2017, 03:58 PM

I saw this at the vintage races in Watkins Glenn back in Sept. It is a tow truck that has a rolling flat bed.

**special-K** · 12-16-2017, 01:29 PM

That's a nice F250. It's interesting how they did the black on the cowl and on the back it doesn't go down to bed. I guess it's how the dept. painted the fleet

What type of tow truck? Rolling bed? More info!

I don't know much about it. I think it's a 1942. Here is '42 tanker truck, looks like the same front end.

They had a body shop in Omaha do the paint work, probably just how they decided to break up the black and red.
All of our trucks are black over red "Chicago style" now.
The Chief at the time the High-boy was purchased was on a safety yellow kick. The aftermarket box was very flimsy, and the tailgate was not strong either.
