Another "not a car". Guy that built this was my friend for many years. Key word "was". He really thinks this is a great idea. It's VW powered, with all that stuff on it, it's probably not a whole lot faster than a Bug. 

No photo description available.

Wacko prototype Jeep.

That would be wild, too bad there's no way to build that and have it be 4wd though. A 2wd front axle would need to be like a dropped axle for a Pre-WW2 Ford and a D30 or D44 on a 4wd would try and occupy the same spaces as the oil pan and "frame rails".   All that said, a XJ with a 360 from either AMC or Chrysler that is built to make that kind of power and corner like the Archer Brothers' Comanches would be just crazy!

 

And for those not familiar with the SCCA Sport Truck class and what an Archer Brothers Comanche is.......

Very cool Jeeps.

They dominated with them too, best part though, other than being a tube axle vs a D30, they just worked over the same front suspension our XJs use to do this!

It is amazing what that simple little platform is capable of, on and off road. Seen them set up as rally cars, LeMons racers, even a GrassRoots Motorsports $20-- Challenge winner!
