4x4. The front axle has a skidplate on it for the snow Im assuming. Click through the pics, you can see it clearly

Definitely an old Monte. BTW, link doesn't work. We had to monkey with it...

I need to snap a pic of the late 60's Mustang with snow plow. The 68 Impala (on Blazer frame) driving by me reminded me of this...

Ive seen stuff like that before, people just buy crappy bodies and put them on the truck. I saw an old pontiac on one, i geuss its better to mess up a monty carlo body than your trucks body...
BTW it looks like those tires will rub on the inner fender wall to me at full steering loc, so that can be too great for the tires.
I was thinking, whats keeping someone from putting like a 2005 4runner body on a 90 toyota 4runner and sell it to someone with no idea?

Local redneck swaps of that variety in the past have included a VW Bug (actually looked somewhat cool), various El Caminos, an 80's z28, an old body style station wagon, and believe it or not, a Fiat X19.

pretty interesting...makes sense about the body mounting though...no matter whats underneath, looks pretty funny seeing that thing pull someone out
