1968 Jeep M715 Restomod 6.0L VORTEC V8 ENGINE SWAP W/

Starting life as a Kaiser-Jeep G-890 1 ¼-ton truck (based on the Jeep Gladiator SJ production truck) back in 1968, this big mauler was tabbed at the Toledo, Ohio factory to go into military service for the United States in our 'M-Series' armed-services vehicle program. Most of you have seen the M-Series Jeep CJs, the Chevrolet K5 Blazers, and the vaunted HUMVEEs, but not many are aware of these Jeep trucks that were sent to the corners of the world to spread democracy, most notably Vietnam. That's exactly the life of noble service this Jeep was built for, before it was converted into a tactical fire truck for the Alverno Fire Department, with a short, utility stepside bed, its imposing stance, and canvas cab roof. A few years after it retired from the fire brigade, the entire truck was frame-off restored (and we have a big book of photographs that detail the entire build), and the previous Fire Engine Red paint was replaced with that super-cool Olive Drab Green you see today.
