Here’s an interesting, oddball vehicle the seller describes as a XM-161 Alley Cat. I’ve never run seen one. Looks fun.

“You are bidding on a very unique vehicle. I have done is much research as I could and will try to tell you everything I know about it. If you happen to know something that I missed, please feel free to contact me and let me know. I am in no way an expert on M151s and I am sure some of you reading this ad are. This vehicle was built by S.D. Baker Company out in West Texas in 1995. They were building vehicles to compete for military contracts during this time. The vehicles they were building where a combination of custom built parts and M151 parts.

I spoke with two of the people involved with this project back then. They built a single row version of this unit (there is only one known to still be around and it has won tons of awards and is in amazing shape). They also built a few dozen that had one row and was a 6X6 with dual rear axles. These are what the build tag on this one is from (note it says 6×6 when it is not). It appears the majority of these went to south america. They remember building a couple of these units with 2 rows and a rear seat. This one went to Monahans Sandhills State park in Monahans, Texas to be used by the park rangers and spent it’s entire life there.

The other one that they have record of went to the city of Abilene, Texas and was destroyed in the 90’s according to the person I talked to at the city. I have been unable to find any evidence of another one existing in over a year of looking. That being said, this unit was never used by the military in it’s current configuration. S.D. Baker did not win any of the contracts they were shooting for so the project died. These were not “home built” or kit vehicles at any time. AS STATED ABOVE; IT DOES HAVE A VALID TEXAS TITLE AND IS STREET LEGAL IN TEXAS. If you are looking for a unique and 1-of-a-kind addition to your fleet, this is it.

They painted it red for the park for some reason. I decided to leave it just as it is to sell it. There are some who will want to paint it green, some will want it desert camo and then some will want it coated with bedliner material. I figured I would let the new owner decide what they want to do with it. I did have new seat covers and inserts made for it. The old ones were dried out and hard as a rock. We also have done the following to it: new plugs, wires, coil, batteries, rebuilt transmission, new clutch, rebuilt starter, rebuilt fuel pump, rewired gauges, new taillights, new brake seals, new rubber boots, new windshield and more.

We sent the Zenith Carb out and had it refurbished and rebuilt. There are currently 265/70R15 tires on it. They used the bigger tire for better use in the sand that’s predominate in the park. That area is basically one big sand dune. You will see there is absolutely no rust on this unit beyond some very light surface rust on some exposed underneath pieces. There is NOTHING that is damaged by it. The overall length is 186 inches, the width is 73 inches and the wheelbase is 127 1/2 inches. This is still a 24 volt system. All the lights work as they should on it. It drives out very solidly for what it is. The transfer case shifts from 2wd to 4wd with no problems. This would make a great hunting vehicle as well as a very neat part of someone’s military fleet. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was auctioned.

Not a vintage jeep, but given its been stretched into a limo, it certainly is unusual. Jeep Limo

(12/08/2014) Glenn spotted this ad. Seller owns several of them.

“Antique 4×4 Jeep Made in Russia. These jeeps were used in all Soviet bloc armies and were built from 1955-1972. Very easy to get parts for. This jeep has an American Jeep 134 motor . I own 3 of them and would like to sell this one so I can start restoration on then next one. $7500. call anytime.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“Most parts interchange with Willys CJ-3B, the Mahindra CJ-540P 4WD is an updated, long wheel-base version of the 1950’s Willy’s CJ-3B design that was built under license by Mahindra in India from the 1950’s until 2011. Although it is a few inches longer than an original CJ-3B, it is still a 2-door, flat-fender model (only has a little more legroom than the original front and back seat layouts). This Jeep is a 1990 model, free title, licensed in Louisiana, unrestored, no rust, NEEDS A TUNE-UP but it runs-stops-drives, 4cl willys hurricane engine, 2 speed transfer case. Need to see – Mahindra did update some of the CJ-3B stuff such as it now has a hydraulic clutch, 3-point seat belts (front only), turn signals, and other MINOR updates/improvements over the 1950’s vintage Willys design. Otherwise, it’s like they were built back in the 50’s! See pics – this vehicle is in very good un-restored condition.”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $9000

(07/28/2014) This is back up for ‘possible’ sale. It’s an unusual build. It’s listed as a ‘1948 willys jeep m38’.

“I was posting some other items and thought I would post this vehicle and test the waters. I’m not really wanting to sell this just got it up and running. It is tagged road legal (barely) It always draws attention and looks. It is a reproduction m38 willys flat fender tub. sitting on a 1978 ford bronco frame that has been bobbed. There is a 6 inch rancho lift with 35″ tires. The engine is a 1976 ford 400 big block! the motor weighs almost as much as the tub! It is a beast sounds good and runs great. It has a hydro boost brake booster. The hood was raised two inches and the nose was stretched about 8 inches to accommodate the motor, nice 4 core radiator, doesn’t get hot. Full roll cage attached to the frame. 5 point harnesses. It does have a heater and a manual wiper on driver side. New windshield that can tilt out. Painless wiring box. All new wiring. lights work. There is a locker in the rear, not sure on the gear ratio. the 4×4 works. It has a c6 transmission with b&m shifter. I believe I know what this is worth and I know what I have put into it. I’m very curious what someone else would be willing to offer for it. Please no low ballers I know it is worth more than a “plane jane” wrangler so don’t make offers less than that! If you are looking for a one of kind rock crawler that is street legal this is it! It is not a show vehicle it has just enough patina & roughness that makes it look good and you don’t mind taking it off road. Yet, it still looks good at the local drive in too!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6200.

Here’s a rare Gaz.

“Antique Russian military Army Jeep 4×4 3 speed 4 cylinder. Unrestored and complete. Does not run but engine turns over. Parts readily available and have contacts. I currently own three and drive one that has been restored. These jeeps are very simple and unique. There are very few in the US. call with any questions. This vehicle needs a total restoration and will only come with a bill of sale”

This runs. I haven’t followed prices on these too closely, but it seems like a good price.

“Everything works. Carb. could use some work.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was auctioned.

Buz spotted this unusual Ford Bronco that was used by the Glen Alpine police department.

“Vehicle Starts/Runs/Drives, Inline 6 Cylinder Engine, 3 Speed Column Shift, Four Wheel Drive (4×4), All Original, Doors and Top are not original to this vehicle but are period correct. The vehicle originally was used as a parade vehicle, then was converted to be used for the Dare Program. Quarter Panels are clean, seats are original with no tears, floor panels look great. Vehicle is currently sitting outside and is not driven much…very little would need to be done to make this a show vehicle or daily driver.”
