The Kaiser, as we affectionately refer to it, is a modified Kaiser Jeep M715 military truck. Her previous owner, Jeff Scott of Loveland Colorado, made many improvements including replacing the original 230 6 cylinder with a 460 Ford, replacing the cab with a full cab from a Jeep Pickup and custom built 20″ wheels. Jeff had lots of stories about this truck, but I’m not sure they are mine to tell here. Jim, Jason’s Dad, bought the truck from Jeff and it now resides in Kearney Nebraska where it is used to pull hapless travelers out of the snow, and ambitious teenagers out of the river.
