This series of experimental truck prototypes were produced in the late 1950s by Chrysler as part of the replacement program for the Deuce & half trucks.
The entire body structure of these vehicles was made of riveted Aluminum panels on a steel frame. They featured a push-button shift fully automatic transmission, all-round
independant torsion bar suspension, front 4 wheels steering with disk brakes on all wheels. It is amphibious and uses its NDCC 14.00x18 balloon type wheels to propel itself in
water. Even the wheel rims were aluminum and shared the same large 5 lug bolt pattern as the Power Wagons and M-37s.
