Paul writes that the days are getting longer and the temperatures warmer, allowing him to check in on friends across Alaska. While looking over one collection recently, he spotted this unusually well done transformation. Those terra tires sure looking in good condition, too! Paul, be sure to thank your friend for sharing this with us!
Paul writes, “I’ll try to remember what he told me concerning the construction / modification of this Jeep but it appears a Ford pickup cab was grafted onto the Jeep body, the four cylinder engine was replaced with a V8, Scout axles replaced the original axles and I think he said the transmission was replaced with a T90 along with numerous other modifications but you can see for yourself when you check out the pictures. With the power of the V8 this little Jeep can quickly dig holes with the tires while in low range and gassing it just about makes the Jeep jump in high range…”
Very nice grafting job…
I love it! What a nice little toy! I see at the background a Ford Mutt, a couple of CJs or perhaps a M38?…Wow! Thanks a lot for the pics!
That’s a pretty cool little rig…well grafted for what it is…looks like it even sports an OD? or is that a PTO shifter?
That looks like an overdrive lever to me.
