Years ago a friends parents had one of these----complete with clear plastic seat covers. Nothing like clear plastic seat covers on a warm day.

1959 Mopars and GMs rocked the outlandish styling.
1959 FoMoCos pretty much sucked.

Still wishing for a restorable 59 Fury like my Dad had.
My first car was a 1959 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 wagon.

Nope. M274 mule.
First used by the USA army then used by every other branch I believe after they realized how versatile they could be.
It was the first vehicle whose payload was more than what it weighed. Pretty cool little things.
Weren't they based on the forward control Jeep?

Yeah my grandpa had it. He put a windshield on it and a bunch of stuff.
It ran the last time it was moved I think but tht was probably 8-10 years ago. It's headed to the brother in laws next weekend. He's making it his winter project.
Does it have that flat-head 4-cyl Willys engine?
