I had a 1988 Chevy Sprint at one time. Dinky car. Not much to it. I was definitely not made to keep on the road long term. It did have a carburetted 3 cylinder engine and a manual transmission. Not a speed demon but not slow either.

Like a 2.9, you better not let it over heat, or you'll be replacing the engine.

those are based on the Chevy Colorado pick up truck. supposedly good for quick action and can hold 9 soldiers. like a hummer but with the original Willys Jeep maneuverability. and cheaper than a hummer.

So it'll break in half from frame rot in 4 years?

likely. But it does not have the smog/ emissions crap either, so there's that

If you hadn't noticed at first, that tractor has a Ford flathead V-8. That was not an official option for the N–series tractors when new, but evidently the V-8 is an easy swap with the standard flathead 4. I've seen pictures of a couple of other converted Ns.

Cool. I wonder if the camper is removable or they just made a RV out of a Bronco?

 

[Curious Hound]

I'm pretty sure those were removable slide-in campers.
