But it’s not a truck, A and 2, probably only if it was the version AM General made for the military.

That’s a H1. There is one for sale not far from me. Almost unstoppable. You know they’ve had a hard life. Crazy where they will go.
But for old fella’s like us, not very comfortable.

Darn near bullet proof.

Had a 1970 mustang with the 302. Really fast, factory 3 on the floor.

Chevy made s 302 as well, I’m sure you know.

I thought they made a 307

 

[Montecresto]

Not many trucks with outside lockers anymore. I thought they always worked.

I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. Salesman said it’s amazing how many people still want them not trusting the electronics, shrug.

There worth big money. My brother had a ‘69 Z with a 302. Another brother replaced it with a small block 427. 536 hp. And mothballed the 302. He sold the car and the mothballed 302. It was fast.

I think the 302 Chevy made was in the Camaro.

They made that too. And a 305 which was a dog.

The thing about manual hubs is they need to roll before they will engage. So if your stuck engaging manual hubs may not get you 4 wheel drive. Lock the hubs before you need them.

Yup. But they just drive over anything in the way.
My neighbor was an RCMP and someone gave them one to haul their trailer to go to schools.
They are giant.
But very cool. Probably hard to find a good one.

It was built by Hard Core Racing in NY. They build a lot of race motors. I guess. Crazy fast.

I kicked my ass a few times in my FJ , having to get out in muck and lock them.
But they always work.

I think AMC General quit making the Hummer around 2010. Now they make what they call a Humvee.

Yep, an SCCA motor, high rpm redline due to the short (3”) stroke..

I see, I thought you were talking GM motors.

Always. My truck has manual locking hubs, but I don’t use them.
