Overview of 1972 AM General M49A2 For Sale by Owner

AM General is a contract manufacturer of heavy vehicles and military vehicles. The company is headquartered in South Bend, Illinois, and was responsible for the original Humvee, as well as its civilian variant which we know and love as the Hummer. Did you know that AM General also made things as diverse as transit buses, articulated buses, and even the original Jeep? If we were to delve into AM General’s history, we’d need far more than one mere listing. So let’s take a look at one of their historic products that’s up for sale, this 1972 AM General M49A2. Coming to you from Miami, Florida, this truck bears just 6,447 miles and sports a 7.8L turbo diesel i6 engine too. So, what is it exactly? Let’s find out.

Exterior and Interior

This truck comes in black because, why not? After all, it’s a tough, military-looking thing with its six massive wheels and chunky Goodyear tires. Yes, the rear axle is a dually configuration for better weight bearing capacity. We see that it’s been treated to LED headlamps as a worthwhile upgrade. Then, we check out the capacious cargo bed out back and let us tell you, it will put a pickup truck to shame. Of course it’s quite high off the ground, but that grants you fantastic ground clearance, which, when paired with this vehicle’s four-wheel drive system, makes for an unstoppable overlander. The exhaust pipe exits upwards too, in classic truck fashion. The interior of this 1972 AM General M49A2 features seating for three adults across a raised driver seat and a lower two-person bench seat. We’re told that there’s air conditioning which is excellent for those hot days. Otherwise, it’s a very no-nonsense affair. You’ve got a black three-spoke steering wheel, three pedals, a gear shifter and a transfer case lever. The gauges are clustered within the center console aircraft-style, and their design and font are aircraft-reminiscent too.

Engine

Powering this 1972 AM General M49A2 is a 7.8-liter turbocharged in-line six-cylinder diesel engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. You’ve got four-wheel drive, and power steering too, making it surprisingly easy to drive this beast. A 50-gallon fuel tank is also present for extended driving range.
