Running fast on the open trails

This nearly 40 year old Mutt can" KICK THE PIG"and on these trails we did just that...LOL. Our 1967 Ford M151A1 at MEGA RUN 2006 in Gilmer Texas











Hope everyone liked them!

Replies are welcome!

To bad these still pictures didn't capture our speed very well we where hauling butt at nearly 60 mph...LOL

Hey for any old Jeep or Mutt that is great off road speed!

Bleddyn, Posting in the correct forum and with less photos might be a start.

The offroad and 4X4 forum would better fit your vehicle. Get to know the folks there and see if they want more info about your vehicle. Create an album and use links. Let the folks that would like to see your work go to it for viewing.

Bombarding a forum with photos of a vehicle that doesn't fit is not the best way to introduce yourself. Earn some respect with the group as a new user.

hate to have to do it this way, but hope it helps

John

reply to JO Wilker

OH I am sorry John I thought I was posting in the right area man!

Nate and I are not trying to flood the pages with pictures on purpose, we are just trying to show our Ford a vehicle type that is growing very rare in the US and even around the world these days.

The history behind our 2 original Mutt's would blow your mind as both were what they call DEMILS.

The goverment put them to pasture by cutting them into peices and scrping them, so many in fact that their are very few non demils left and the few thousand that are demil and restored are growing very rare also.

My Son Nate's 1965 M151A1 was a X-cut or in other words cut from fender to fender on twice front to rear accross the center ect.

Nate and I were able to clamp weld this rig inch by inch for over a month to get it tight enough to weld together again.

A vehicle that was cut so as to never be driven again is now a complete driving machine. Now that is Love and dedication to our Ford's.

This is a 1967 Ford so it does fit and I was just trying to share the original Ford Mutt's Nate and I own and use at different events.

The 1962 Ford M151 we are building is a different story as it is made from many different Ford parts, and to tell you I was not sure were we were going to post it when completed...LOL

So if we post in the off road area with pictures of let's say modifaction stuff it won't be wrong?

We are new to this web page and still new to Ford Racing so we may get it wrong sometimes.

Thanks for the message man...Bleddyn and Nate

Man, There is no good way to reply.

You need first to go where others are interested in what you are interested in. This and the 61-66 forum is about Fseries & pickups not jeeps.

This site offeres a 4X4 and offroad forum where folks might be interested in your project. Those guys at least would be in the same ball park.

You asked for replys, I am trying to offer a suggestion to get some.

Give it a shot.

John

JO Wilker this is NOT a JEEP!

THis is a Ford MUTT that is why I posted it in 1967-1972.

Yes I do race her as well as my other Ford's but I was just trying to show other a more rare Ford vehicle to spawn a interest in the vehicle over all.

MUTT...Multipurpose Utility Tactical truck.

Why would I post a JEEP on a Ford web page?

I am not trying to argue with anyone trust me, but the fact is this is not a Jeep trust me.

No Jeep other Military Jeep type vehicle has IFS and IRS, nor are they a uni-body design, and the grill is left to right not up and down.

The M151A1 in these pictures is also a 4 speed not a 3 speed and requires no hub locks.

This is why my son Nate and I who are both official Ford Racing Memebers are building a pre Runner from a 1962 Ford M151.

I have always wanted to get autofabs kit and make one of these year trucks glide through the desert. Crazy rig. Does it crawl or mud?

Doesn't matter if its a Jeep or a Ford. Its not an Ford truck. This section is for Ford pickup trucks. We can't be all things for all people. Thread closed.
