Odd Vehicle Santa Margarita, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $5900. Still not sure what it is.

“We are not quite sure what to call this vehicle. It probably started out as a Willys Americar, then was transformed into it’s present shape by a Cal Poly welding professor (or so the story goes). It has a 4-cylinder flathead engine that turns freely and a stick shift transmission. Notice the custom dash in the pics. There is a small trunk with a spare on the back. Still has the black license plates, so we can assume that it was driven on the highway at some point in it’s life. Would make a real cool run-about or ranch vehicle. Has the original hubcaps. Will need lots of TLC to get it back on the road, but what a hoot – friends will love it. We are certain that it is the only one of it’s kind in the world. I am William of bidslo.com and you can find all sorts of other fantastical vehicles on our website. Have a great day.”

1958 DKW Munga New Jersey $15,000

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Glenn spotted this rare Munga in good shape, though I can’t attest to whether it is original or not.

“The only one in the U.S., a hybrid German Border Patrol Jeep made by the predecessor of AUDI [DKW Auto Union] in the late 50’s, Has a newly rebuilt VW air cooled engine with manual trans, big Military type tires and runs great….especially in parades and is a winner in car shows. Need room in my collector car garage so am letting go this special one of a kind. Registered in NJ as a antique ’68 VW and MUNGA model.”

Glenn forwarded this ad. Not many of these around in the states. I believe the proper name for this is an MK2/3 British Ferret Armored Scout Car. This may be missing the turret on top. Here’s an example of one with a turret.: http://www.track-kickers.com/images/mkferret23-main.jpg

1948 Model 90 Empire Tractor Portland, OR **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Features, Other 4x4s • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.

Thanks to Blaine for spotting this good looking Model 90 for sale. What’s an Empire Tractor?

“Empire tractors were only built for a few years after WWII.
The drivetrain of these tractors was the Willys Jeep 4×4 which were available at that time.
The engine, transmission, transfer case, rearend, radiator, steering column and wheel are all Willys.
The operator platform of the tractor is surplus navy ship decking.
This tractor does not have the original Willys engine, but instead has a flat head Jeep engine with a counterbalanced crankshaft. The electrical system has also been updated to 12v instead of the original 6v system.
The engine, transmission, and transfer case were all rebuilt a few years ago. The engine runs great and idles very smoothly.
The tractor can easily do 20mph on the road and if the rear tires were balanced it would go faster.
This tractor would be great for someone wanting to do one of the antique tractor drives that various tractor clubs offer.

There are less than 500 Empire tractors in the USA, known to the Empire Tractor Club.
(oh…. also included with the tractor for the buyer would be all the Empire Tractor Club newsletters that I have)”

Here’s an Odd One

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Marty spotted this crazy looking thing.

“I have for sale a home built street legal buggy thing that looks like an old military willys jeep. It has a FULL drivetrain, suspension, engine, transmission, dash, heater and electronics out of a 1978 Subaru brat! Does not run currently (I got it that way)! I was going to get it going but I’ve moved on to something else. It will need to be trailered or delivered for the right price. It’s all there and the top is in great shape! Engine turns over smooth by hand but that’s as far as I got with it. It does have a clean wa title and yes it s street legal!”

Jim spotted this 1980 Cherokee with a Gladiator grille. It’s a good look, though it seems to me this could effect cooling.

“Up for sale is a fairly rare 1966 Jeep J-200 “Gladiator” 4×4 truck with the optional Custom Cab trim package. This features the good-looking chrome front grill, aluminum front end trim, chrome front bumper, fancy stainless steel trim on the rear of the cab, Custom Cab emblems, and more.

Powered by the venerable 230 cubic inch Tornado inline overhead cam six-cylinder engine, she runs very well. I replaced the water pump (was squeaky and was ready for replacement), rebuilt the hydraulic clutch including going through the master cylinder, and replacing the slave cylinder), changed fluids, and properly set up the timing and carburetor. A nice-running truck with a lot of life left in her; showing 30,175 on the odometer, but likely rolled over once.. who can say? No exhaust smoke or bad engine noises at all. She’s got the three-speed manual “three on the tree” transmission, and optional power steering, which is a big plus. 4×4 transfer case gets her in and out of all wheel drive properly, and she comes with some spare parts including a set of Warn locking front hubs. Good brakes combined with all the above make her a sound driving truck.
