Kaiser Jeep M715. Portland, Maine
I thought this might have been the same unit as the Kaiser Jeep M715 we posted from Freeport Maine a couple years back---but not. Thanks to Scott Dorrance for the photographs. After they got out of the army a lot of these were painted red as fire dept. trucks.

Cambridge Land Rover
Calling them Defenders sounds a little...defensive. If you try our search widget, you'll find a bunch of Land Rovers posted here on AL, many of them in the Netherlands, where LRs are everything from workaday utility company trucks to high-end flashmobiles. This was a January day in Cambridge when the 14" blizzard of the previous weekhad been evaporated by a couple days of rain and temps in the low 60s.

La Cucaracha. Alpine, Texas
I though it might be an English Ford Escort---but, no, and the shape of the of suggests room for more of an engine...I really haven't a clue what this was. Any ideas?
