I have a Cor' in my pictures but it's a 'Vair not a 'Vette

I'd love to know what's powering that "Vair".

Matt's Off Road Recovery is building a Corvair station wagon recovery vehicle.

Cute, but seems like a dumb idea to me. I would have started with a K5 Blazer converted to 4 wheel coil and link suspension, and maybe 40" tires.

I could use this to save on gas

sweetk30 · 01-17-2021, 10:49 AM

Saw that on a tv show . Its from Australia or New Zealand . He built it on a newer 4x4 .

**special-K** · 01-17-2021, 01:52 PM

It looks well built, fully capable with neat vintage style. I'd like to see it in action.

2 minutes later:

Here it is...

Cool woody....and Suzuki.....

Doesn't need to be radical to be one of the coolest trucks shown in this thread. I love everything about it. Trice Nuck!!!

That's some creation right there, those had hydraulics at the rear for their winch or was that a pto winch ????

**special-K** · 02-06-2021, 08:06 AM

I don't know anything about these, but I did look one over once. I believe it is PTO driven hydraulics. I'm not sure if it would use a shaft off the PTO to rear pump, pump on PTO with lines run fore and aft, or pump on engine. Lots of hose, though!

I know, it's a 2wd. can still go off road, though

**Willowrun** · 02-07-2021, 12:05 AM

I’ve picked up some more “other makes” over the last year or so.
Bought this one for the doors and fenders. It will probably just sit like this packed full of scout parts for a long time. Has a 345 I got running over the summer. Good oil pressure but some flat cam lobes so it will be a backup engine.

**Willowrun** · 02-07-2021, 11:38 AM

Not long after purchasing the scout above I came across this rust free one without an engine in California. Had it shipped here.

**special-K** · 02-08-2021, 01:34 AM

Nice find, a rust free Scout!

No kidding, a rust free scout is a rare bird even here in the west.

**Willowrun** · 02-08-2021, 04:12 PM

Ok, let me clarify: the “rust free” Scout has rust it’s just not rusty where most scouts rust. The hard top, windshield frame, and hood all have rust. Typical top down ocean air rust compared to bottom up Midwest salt induced rust. The yellow scout has rust free hood and windshield frame so that works out. I have two other scouts so between 4 of them I’ll end up with 2. This is the other rust free one and it’s from AZ. Flat cam lobes in this one too.

I used to own a scout. I couldn't open both doors at the same time or you couldn't close them due to rust. Between frame and body flex that thing could go anywhere! Fun vehicle but finding anything "rust free" around the northeast would cost more than I am willing to spend.

Nice Scouts

I suspect this is 4wd. COE Jeep product?

Yep, FCs were 4wd. How cool would one of those be off road and in the woods? No issues with seeing over the hood. The FC150 was the short one and then there was the FC170. I'm not sure how they labeled them by weight range. I like the longer FC170s

**DeadheadNM** · 02-18-2021, 08:43 AM

Thanks Tim - I like those.

Isn't it funny how back then they came standard from the factory with a "lift" ?

That's a nice "high boy".

Here is a better pic version of the front 3/4 view. And the link to see the full size version .... http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...hp?photo=47426

1976gmc20 · 02-20-2021, 04:52 PM

I worked one winter for an old guy who had a Ford 4x4 just about exactly like that. He also had an F600 log truck of about that same vintage and color. I spent a fair amount of time riding with him in both of them

He had a sawmill too, and we would take the pickup up to the woods just to cut, and then take the truck to the woods to skid and load. He had a Model A doodlebug skidder and another Model A turned backwards with a tractor front loader mounted on it.

Of course I have no pictures because that was back in the film & develop days, and besides never imagined that it would be interesting 45 years later.
