the 4X4 Kustom







I saw a cool 4X4 Kustom I wanted people to see.
Enjoy
Just the look of it is cool. The 8 head lamp,fins and the rear fender skirts. the flathead engine is from a Merc.
this is what the description reads."This was built in the late 50's early 60's. It is on a 1942 4x4 ford jeep chassis. The cab is a 1952 IH snubnose. The rear clip is a 1953 mercury custom sedan. It has 59 ford front fenders for the bottom lights the top lights are 39 chevy headlights turned sideways and split.IT IS 4 WHEEL DRIVE ! ! ! 4x4. Make a cool rock crawler out of it!!!!

The motor is a EAC Mercury flathead V8. These motors make great hot rod motors! ! It trns over and tries to start but dontknow if i have the plug wires on in right order.It is on jeep 4 x 4 frame, the old gentalman that i bought this from used it to plow snow, he said it would go places other 4x4s couldnt go. This is a great project for someone .I found another car and cant keep 2 cars here,so I am selling this one. Rolls easily, will need a trailer or flatbed to haul. The body is solid with no rust holes. Needs brakes, glass."

If I had got that I would bring it to show car standards but make it drivable. But... I don't!!
