Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes

[special-K]

I love that thing. Looks like a typical all around Jeep from the dry western states. I remember the first time I rolled into Denver from back east and seeing all the chromed & painted up Jeeps, Bronco, and Scouts for the first time (other than magazines)

Yes, very very dry and dusty.

I new a guy that lived at Bullhead city years ago, had a international carry all 4x4 like those pictured. He had a big huge AC unit off a old semi diesel truck mounted on the roof

Good for 115* weather river bed wheeling to get to the water

It looks great. I hope it drives as good as it looks. Where out west are you picking it up?

I thought that looked familiar. They could of sold it a year ago it they had used the photos you posted of it. I remember it looking much rougher in the C/L ad.

I’m working on the brakes at his place now, it’s not quite as he told me but I’m trying to be patient. The body is fine the work done on the conversion is fine but it’s been sitting. I’m a big boy and take what comes my way but his words ring in my ear,
“Honestly I would not hesitate to take it anywhere, everything is new or rebuilt”

I wonder how much he would hesitate if you him that you would hold him to his word and have him accompany you back across the states.
Good luck! If things go bad near Portland let me know I maybe able to help.

I used to buy western trucks and drive them home way back when. My '72 K2500 is one (2001). The last one I bought was in Greely, CO 2004, '72 K/20. I bought it from now defunct Classical Gas and they told me "drive anywhere". I was real busy with my work back then, so considered just running it down to my Sister's in Taos, in case there were issues. This was my first 'dealer buy', so more concerned with the honesty factor as well as actual knowledge of condition being known. I finally decided no time for that and had it shipped. Good thing! The truck shows up and first thing the driver tells me is what a PIA it has been moving the truck with no clutch, had to start in gear. Ok, so it needs a clutch. I decide to run it up to the crossroads 5-6 miles away to put gas in it. I got up to 40mph and the front tires were bouncing like a basketball. Turned back and discovered the ball joints were way shot. Next I go to creep it on the backroads up to my shop 20-25 miles away. Coming up out of the valley a mile down the road I shift to 4th and it falls on it's face. Calipers were hot/froze up tight. I cut the hoses and carried on. That would have been a disaster to try to drive home. So glad I shipped it

If ya come through close to me, I would love to see it.

[57NAPCO]

Will do...

Going down to Gold Beach, Oregon to visit an ol’ friend, from there I may head east to Hailey Idaho and surprise my sister. I see snow in my future going that route.

[special-K]

That is a nice job. I like that body as a 4wd. Not so much as built

Here's one to enjoy looking at

[B. W.]

Here's an interesting one: (for sale too! Not mine)
Love the wood stove. Looks like you could swivel the driver's seat & stoke the stove while you're driving!

With a private message and a couple emails telling me I have been slacking off, I thought I'd visit one of my favorite threads.
While some of my Chevy stuff has been upgraded in years I still have the green disease and have added a couple more of them since last posted.
My M925A2 and M934 Expandable.

Lots of time spent inside of the back of an M934. I still remember how it is wired.

Too many pics to scab and post. Check out this M934 camper. Do you need to wear ear plugs when you drive those?
