for you m170 fans

Post by keats »

came across this photo. looks like a rear view the m170 prototype jeep. Has some sort of clamp on the left rear to hold the drivers side stretcher in place. front fender looks like the prototype version. also, a simple strap holding the upper rack from the top bows.

Interesting! The Model CJ-4MA-01 in the photo caption. Always wondered about the CJ-4.

Came across this bit of information about the very same jeep:
