I know because I'm in the process of buying it, but figured I ask around to see if anyone else knows. There are at least two (perhaps three) things in the picture that are dead giveaways.

It's a 1985 CJ10A aircraft tug with the rear end extended and a bed added. The truck bed was built with the M416 trailer that I'm also buying in mind. They don't match, but the fenders are pretty close. The headlights in the front fenders and 10 slot grill are the giveaway's. I figured the pintle hitch on the front bumper might also give it away.

It's also diesel powered although POWERed would be an exageration. It's got the same Nissan/Chrysler inline 6cyl SD33 diesel many international scouts came with in the 70's-80's, except its NA (normally aspirated) rather than turbo charged so it only has 96hp and 176 lb/ft of torque. Not a fast truck by any means. Should CRAWL good though when I get done with it. _________________
