UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Here’s an unusual find.
“How about this boys! A 1956 Willys with backhoe. Someone said it is a factory military, is it? I don’t know, you tell me. Flat head 6 cylinder, 3 speed trans., 4 wheel drive. It runs and drives BUT has no brakes. I have a rebuilt master cylinder for it. The backhoe works great. Need to replace some hydrolic lines but it works the way it is. She is a rare one boys! Bring $5000 cash please-NOTHING LESS-and a trailer and she’s yours! ”
I think those were an aftermarket conversion piece. I’ve seen them on CJ5’s and other trucks as well. There was one near me on the back of a studebaker truck.
It’s a Koenig piece.
I have a piece of factory literature on it, may even have a parts list. I would have to check my archives.
Ok, I don’t have any reason to dig a hole at the moment, but I’d sure like to get it and dig a hole just for kicks!
