'81 CJ5 Tow Loader
Back in late 50s or early 60s, Jeep CJ5 was offered with optional backhoe and blade. I've seen pics of them on web. Quite interesting contraptions.

HOWEVER this custom fabrication tops that all to heck. I ran across it this morning. Thought homesteaders could appreciate what a truly talented designer can do. Lot pics on this link.

Just after WWII Jeep was into helping to farm. They made turning plows a planter, a cultivator and many thinks that farmers could use.
