Year? Mitsubishi Annapolis, MD **Status Unknown**

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $5700.

“I purchased this jeep 5 years ago in Washington State where I restored it and used it on mountain trails, hunting/fishing while based at Fairchild AFB near Spokane. After being transferred to Andrews AFB it’s spent most of its time in my garage, other than trips into town, etc. It has a very efficient low mileage (under 45,000 miles) 4DR6 2.7L diesel engine mated to an iron 4speed manual transmission and transfer case. The steering is right hand drive as is typical for these late model willy’s from Japan. It’s been well maintained but shows some wear for its age such as repairs in the soft top, worn seats, etc. I also have the driver, passenger, and rear doors that are included in the sale. About 3 years ago the windshield wiper motor stopped working, so I’ve relied on the back up manual wiper in its place. I don’t have the time to research a new wiper motor or have it rebuilt, which is why I’m letting my jeep go at such a low price… While doing some research on this vehicle I discovered through discussion boards that individuals are paying up to $14K for these jeeps by the time the import cost, taxes, and all other expenses are calculated. It’s never been driven in the rain/snow here in Maryland due to rust concerns. This jeep has proven extremely reliable to me and capable of anything I’ve put in its path, you won’t be dissapointed.

Since I’ve owned it I’ve addressed the following:

-New windshield
-5 new 8 ply tubeless tires
-resealed the front and rear axles
-replaced all of the brakes (11″ drum brakes)
-installed new rear driveshaft
-replaced driveline parking brake
-eliminated rust from rear fenders by removing old sheet metal and welding in new
-Water pump was rebuilt 1 month ago
-New fan/alternator belt last month
-replaced thermostat & hoses
-installed inline coolant block heater
-M38 speedometer (replaced old unit that was in kilometers per hr)
***note*** speedometer works great but odometer recently stopped working
-installed turn signal control (unit was missing when it arrived from Japan)
-new pintle hitch with 2″ ball
-new shovel, axe, & jerry can
-installed farm jack on front bumper
-new M38 mirrors
-installed passenger seat from a CJ-5 (seat was missing when it arrived from Japan)
-installed Warn Locking hubs for the Dana 30 front axle
-engine oil & filter have been changed every 3,000 miles or 6 months (which ever comes first)

****the engine is barely broke in at 45-50K miles, burns no oil, and there are absolutely no leaks from the engine or drivetrain components.Yea”

1969 Nissan Patrol Eagle River, AK **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: Was $1000. **SOLD**

If parted out, this might indeed be worth a small fortune if you think around $1000 is a small fortune.

“for the people who collect these ive been told that if i parted it out it would be worth a small fortune, but i want to sell the whole thing quickly so lets deal…..it ran and drove to where it was parked sat a few years brake pedle goes to floor has twin stick t/case 4 litre straight 6 inline engine some spare parts in back picture makes it look good but it does have rust. all parts are there except door glass. neat old rig a lot of people get it confused with a land rover but it is a nissan patrol. its about the size of a CJ 5 but a little wider so its not tippy, they were used by militaries all around the world until fairly recently they were still made. there is a title for this. i really wish i could keep this but you can see the willys in the background of one picture and that is the project im working on now.”

The Selouki 1/4 Ton Truck Model 4WD-25T

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

UPDATE:  CapnJohn obtained the following info related to Selouki:

We don’t have a photo of the front of this vehicle but this manual covers the Selouki 1/4 Ton Truck model 4WD-25T.This Jeep like vehicle was produced by Highway Products Inc, Kent, Ohio.

Highway Products, Inc., Kent, Ohio was formed by Joseph Thomas ‘Joe’ Myers in 1960 to manufacture truck bodies for specialty markets such as mobile post offices. In addition to mail trucks and mobile post offices the company also manufactured small boats for both military and commercial use, missile launchers and engines. In 1968 Highway Products introduced a 25-passenger bus and sold it under the Twin Coach name. Joe Myers sold the company to Alco Standard in the early 1970s. Alco Standard bought the Cortez Motor Home line of products and manufactured the motor homes in the Kent, OH production facilities of Highway Products. Approximately 900 buses were built under the Twin Coach name when production stopped in October, 1975, due to bankruptcy. Joe Myers also served as the President of the Davey Tree Expert Company and was married to John Davey’s granddaughter, Marilyn Davey.

No gas tank, no bed, no seats, Transfer case linkage is really, really stiff. I disconnected it to test the 4X4. Needs way more TLC than I can give it at this time.

1963 J-200 Ione, Ca $2300

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

Mike has his early J-200 for sale.

“’63 was the first year this body style was offered to the public.

This truck has had the 230 replaced with a Ford 351 and a 4 speed. The truck has been sitting for quite a while but it had been well cared for. And is surprisingly straight. It is a short-bed thrift-side with a straight axle front end (not IFS).

She deserves a good home, so if you would like a great piece of Americana, Take a look.

I will also have a 230 available soon. Just need to get this beauty out of the space it is in so I can work on my next project.”

1968 M715 Sandy, Ut **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.

Brest spotted this cool M715.

“1968 Jeep Kaiser M715

4WD/2WD Hi/Low, 24 volt power

230ci 6 cyl. Tornado engine

11,500 original miles

2nd cilvilian owner

This Jeep is not presently running. I believe it only needs a professional timing job to run again. The original engine threw a bearing through the oil pan and a rebuilt engine from Boyce Equipment in Ogden was installed. It was in perfect running order until recently when the distributor power became disconnected and threw out the timing. It turns over and tries to start, but I cannot get the timing right myself. I bought this Jeep from the Groom Creek Fire Department in Prescott, AZ in 2002. It is rust and dent free, straight as an arrow. I have been refinishing it since and the many extras now include:

Newer paint in and out, Rhino lined bed and cab

4.56 differential gears (Higher highway speeds up to 65 mph)

Custom one-piece, powder coated Diamond Racing Rims with Pro-Comp off road tires

PTO Braden winch with Rock Stomper fiber braid rope

62 inch all weather black diamond plate tool box in bed

Newer Canvas top (6 yrs. old)

J-truck bench seat

2 New 12V Die Hard Gold gel batteries (in-line for 24V)

Blackout light, Pioneer tools and straps, Rhino grill, Brush Guard

Hi-Lift jack, heavy duty tow straps

All military manuals, extra parts like a canister-style air filter, extra carb, military siren, military spare tire, some J-truck do-dads.

I am selling my much loved Jeep because I got it when I was single, and now I have a wife and 4 kids, and it isnt really family appropriate. A great ride for a rugged do-it-yourselfer, or a classic 4×4 enthusiast. Turns heads, garners thumbs-ups, and will instantly instill a sense of bad-assedness.”

Gordon’s 1954 Unimog 401

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

Gordon volunteered to share images of his unusual Unimog 401, which he calls ‘Grog’. It’s a pretty cool vehicle. Gordon got it from Cold War Remarketing in Colorado; in turn, he got it from the Swiss Army

Gordon writes,”Grog is completely street legal, I had him licensed and insured for a while. Top speed with its behemoth 25HP OM636 is 35 mph. (Probably far short of that here at 6000’ elevation). I have a few other 636 engines and have toyed with the idea of trying to turbocharge one of them, but that’s pretty far down on my list. Mercedes also used the 636 in the early Ponton cars (180D).”

1956 Unimog Angola, NY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

“I hate to list this but current circumstances force me to list my most prized toy.  Unimog has been in a barn for the last 20 years.  The engine does not turn but shows no signs of ever having moisture in it. It appears to have never been apart. I have made no real attempt at freeing it up besides pulling the glowplugs and squirting some diesel/oil in the holes. The plugs themselves looked good as far as having no signs of moisture in the engine. The transmission shifter wobbles but is not sliding into gears. The PTO shaft does turn and the Unimog rolls easily.Unimog will come with it’s ORIGINAL manual. Steering is stiff but works. Unimog is obviously being sold as is.
