UPDATE: Still Available
(08/08/2012) This has a fiberglass body. I don’t understand chopping the windshield though.
“So I always wanted to build a Crawler / Trail Jeep using the best Willys stuff and a few choice Chevy parts. I started with an M38A1 1/4 ton military Jeep frame. I chose this frame because its boxed and shackle reversed from the factory for the best offroad performance. I retained the original 5:38 ratio gears in the model 44 rear/model 25 front axels. They are mounted with a full spring over axel system, including adjustable anti-wrap link on diff. A Saginaw power steering system helps turn the Goodyear MTR military surplus HUMVEE Tires, 37 inch units, the latest issued. the rear boasts 11 inch drum brakes while the fronts are stock.
For the running gear I wanted the best horsepower to weight ratio I could fit without a shoehorn. I chose a 1988 Chevy 4.3 roller motor, rebuilt and bored 020. over. With a Quadrajet 4bbl, 65,000 volt HEI for serious spark, and 3/8 flange Sanderson headers, plus a 110 amp hi-output GM 1 wire alternator, this motor is STRONG and RELIABLE.!!!!! Thats also why I used a GM SM465 (super low first gear AND fully synchronised!!) a great unit used in 1 Ton trucks thru-out the 1980s
4 speed truck trans, complete with GM hydraulic clutch set up–no binding,ever!! Its connected via a NOVAK adapter tgo the all metal,all gear driven 1971 model 18 trandfer case. this unit can be rebuilt with WAY Low gears and is twin sticked and interlock pellet altered to provide 2 WHEEL LOW. GREAT on tight trails!! The dual exhaust is fully welded .
The body tub is fiberglass, the nose all steel. The windshield has been chopped 2 inches. Sunpro guages, removeable steering wheel , racing bucket seats.”
I wish the picture of the front axle/steering linkage was a better quality, the long tie rod appears to be bent to avoid contact with other steering components.
