I've never heard of these, but one is up for auction near me.
From what little info I can find, they were built on the old Jeep frames and drive trains.

Not that I have any need, but for now it's just 5 dollars! 😜

I could use that! I had a Ford GPW Jeep growing up, sorry I sold it. Still have some parts from it.

That's my bid. Don't figure it will go that cheap though.

Unique machine for certain. The bidding is closed now. Anybody know what it finally sold for?

Born in the 50's, grew up in the 70's, now in my 60's, hope I make it to my 80's.

I did a little more research and found that it sold for $3000. Not a bad price for what one is getting. Probably would not take a lot of work to get it running again either.

Yep, $3100 and they said they'd got it running the night before the auction. Didn't start at the auction, guy flooded it.
