Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes

[57taskforce]

I really like that international!

[special-K]

That International has been at that show every year for over 10. I also see it at Macungie, PA (ATHS National Show) Fathers Day weekend. I've never talked to the guy but I think it is treated special yet still worked a bit.

I confess my love for the IH 4wds from the same era GM Trucks I've been into. Going GM was a practical decision out of need. Now that they are old trucks to preserve I wouldn't mind owning one... or two three five

It’s funny Tim, when I lived in your neck of the woods, I almost never saw internationals, I see them somewhat frequently (5-10 times a month or so) here. I see both Scouts and Trucks. I love that black truck and the medium olive and white equivalent above.

I confess my love for the IH 4wds from the same era GM Trucks I've been into.

Looking back, I'm pretty sad that I couldn't/didn't buy my stepdad's 71 IH when he was selling it in the mid-1990s

It was 3/4 ton 4x4 with 345 and 4 speed, and had an 8' cab-over on it so it hadn't been worked to death. But I had gotten sick and was going back to school and had no money or use for it at the time. I even sold my 1965 C/10 short stepside about that time.


I've been looking all over for a picture of the Dodge W/300 that our VFD used to have, but I can't find it. Probably on a hard drive from a dead PC. It was a real beast that could go anywhere and just push stuff out of the way. But the steering was bad and you didn't want to drive it very far on the highway. But instead of fixing it the state traded it out for a new F-550. The power wagon might have gone to a ranch or Hoot Colony for a while.

Saw this WWII era Dodge today.

Does the German bike count as a 4wd?

[special-K]

I guess the thread is titled 4wd, but the forum is 4wd & Off Road. It fits in. I wonder why they even bother with the front fork and wheel. They had the ability to turn track vehicles back then. I would think think that little old wheel would plow with both tracks pushing

They used to make those old double-track Ski-Doos with the single front ski.

That's interesting, I didn't know Alpha made 4x4 vehicles.

[special-K]

Ah, one a them little foreign jobbies, ey? Cute. I like it. Never saw one before either. The only foreign vehicle, other than old VWs, I ever bought was a new '87 Samurai. My first new vehicle. It was for my wife to commute to nursing school in. That thing was neat. I figured I'd build a serious off road toy with it when she was done with it, but traded it in for a '90 Blazer when she started working. I'd still like to build a cool Samurai toy

Not mine

[1976gmc20]

new '87 Samurai

One of my wife's cousins bought a new one back in that era. They came up to see us where we were logging on private ground and came in the back way (4x4 only) since there was a locked gate below.

We went with them on a scenic drive but damn! he drove that little thing too fast. I thought for a bit that he was going to flip it and roll down a thousand foot cliff and kill all four of us.

Other than that it was a cute and capable little jeep.

Too damn cool.

Bonus picture for you!

The IHs look like what I’d imagine Studebaker might produce. Studebaker isn’t in spell check btw.

Spellcheck seems weak in working man's vocabulary. They tell me I am misspelling words I have used all my life. I rely on typing a word in the Google search box for a better real world way to check spelling.

If the Internationals weren't known for being hard to get parts for I would have had one. Hence the reason I am a Chevy man. Best parts network on earth. I had the '69 Dodge W200. That was hard getting parts for back in '77. Then came Chevys.

dodge was building a heck of a truck in the '60s but not many wanted them. Perhaps behind the time in styling, but ahead of their time in build. Dodge offered a 1t 4wd in single or dual wheel/regular cab or crew cab, a shortbed 3/4t 4wd in regular or crewcab, the W500 medium duty, and the original Power Wagon was still offered into the mid-60s along side of the w-series 4wds

Nice to see a little more FSJ content. It's been a while since I posted a pic of my old bucket. Nothing radical, but lots of fun.

I like it too.

[special-K]

I'd own it! Check out the lug pattern... beefy axles under that shortbed

How about this wimpy thang? I do like the first one better, but I'd own it
