Despite the fact that we love the new Jeep Gladiator pickup truck, our hearts pine for vintage. Case in point, this Vietnam-era Jeep Gladiator-based Kaiser M715. This military-spec maintenance truck version has been fully restored with such details as the unique and bulbous all-steel roof, a new heavy-duty transfer case putting down power to all four corners, rugged Dana axles in front and rear, a new front-mounted winch, and some big fat 42″ Mickey Thompson Super Swamper tires, and an upgrade to potent GM V8 engine. The result is a truck that’s tough as nails, better to drive than it was in its original state, and brutally handsome all the same time. It’s now up for auction with no reserve, and the winning bidder is sure to get one of the most unique vintage vehicles on the road today.
