Howdy falkers...Im back with a vengence with my new -old rig....

1960 AMC Mighty Mite M422A1 mini-jeep....It is a rare aluminim bodied, INDEPENDENT suspension military rig....i have installed a kubota Turbo Diesel engine and larger 34" tires....

this thing has a unique suspension design that rivals any other vehicle...and Im improving it, of course...Also, turned up the injection pump for more power and torque...Being 1.5ltrs and only 1700 lbs it gets over 45MPG...

Thought some of you folks would want to see it.

Wow, that thing looks a little bit like an Isuzu Unicab. Especially in that pic you posted, Dub.

Which in turn looks a lot like a VW Country Buggy...
