Jeep (willys?) had a pickup like that in the late 50's. or early 60's.

The gear shift linkages got pretty wobbly after a while, I think. You could really see the rocks you were driving over, though.

I'd forgotten about those. I haven't seen one in many years. Ford, I think, had a very similar one but I don't know if came in 4x4.

Chevrolet also made a pick truck in a cab-over version based on their rear engine Corvair line.

How on earth would you climb in that thing without a ladder. Think of a lady in a dress getting in.


Yup, Been thinking about that....I'm sure most of the guys here would be on the passenger side helping her up. grin

looks to me like it has portal axles like the Unimog..

but i'd not hold my breath waiting for one. Jeep always does some really cool looking concept rigs that never materalize.

I agree. Problem is that all those Jeep emblems will preclude it from being worth a schit.

Might be photoshopped but if so, Foxnews did it. Foxnews can't possibly be wrong, can they? grin JEEP CONVERSION

There is an outfit somewhere in MT that specializes in dropping 12V Cummins engines into F250's with the junker 6.0's

I dunno, I loved my TJ Wrangler but the further they get from a short wheelbase and I6 engine, the less it's a Jeep. That just looks like an extended cab truck to me.

There is a place in Great Falls that puts them into older Suburbans. For 10 g's I think.

In that case it might be called a sports car. grin
