The Hyundai Galloper is not a name that many would recognize outside of South Korea, and especially not in the US. Its picture, however, would be instantly recognized in most parts of the world. A majority of car enthusiasts would know it by a different name, the Mitsubishi Pajero. Technically, they wouldn’t be wrong, as this is essentially a first-generation Mitsubishi Pajero built in South Korea by Hyundai from 1991-1997. When Mitsubishi introduced the 2nd generation Pajero in 1991, the production lines for the 1st generation Pajero were moved to a Hyundai factory in South Korea. Initially, it was introduced only to the South Korean market (where it became the best selling SUV in the country within the first year) but in 1994, Hyundai started exporting them to other Asian countries as well. As this generation of Galloper was limited to Asian markets, the only way these vehicles could end up in the US if they were imported from South Korea (or another Asian country where it was sold) as this one was, making it a rare vehicle to own.
Visually, the Galloper is almost identical to the Pajero, with Hyundai making only a handful of noticeable changes. A facelift was introduced in 1994, with square headlamps and horizontal side mirrors, but this car is one of the pre-facelift vehicles with round headlamps (which give it a more classic look). The striking yellow and black color scheme from the exterior is also carried on inside the vehicle. The yellow seats and door upholstery make the black interior components stand out. The folding seats in the back are useful if you need to take a few extra friends or extended family with you. Aside from the colors, the interior is mostly stock except for an aftermarket audio player with Bluetooth connectivity which makes it much more convenient to use nowadays. On the outside, this vehicle has been fitted with black aftermarket wheels, oversized tires and halogen lighting at the front.
The Galloper was initially available with a diesel engine and a manual transmission, though an automatic and a V6 petrol engine were introduced later. This vehicle has the 2.5L TurboDiesel engine and the 5-speed manual transmission. It has a 4WD system with a manual transfer case, making it a good old-fashioned off-roader. Its capabilities are enhanced by the upgraded wheels and tires as well.

The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.
Are you the sort of person who prefers a classic off-roader rather than a car? Do you want your classic off-roader to have real off-roading chops, a fine legacy of dependability and come from a well-known American brand? If so, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 is perfect. Hailing from the illustrious Jeep CJ – that’s Civilian Jeep – legacy, the CJ was created shortly after World War II ended. Willys-Overland, the ones behind the popular Military Jeep knew that without war, their main customer wouldn’t be buying nearly as many vehicles from them. So, they switched gears and made the Jeep CJ, a tough, no-nonsense off-roader aimed at farmers and tradespersons who needed a simple vehicle with guts and four-wheel drive. This vehicle comes from the CJ-5 era which ran between 1954 and 1983. With its naturally aspirated V6, manual gearbox and aftermarket exhaust system, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 has only done 167 miles since its thorough makeover.
Jeep’s CJ series of off-roaders is what gave rise to the Wrangler today. You can see the design similarities between the old and the new, despite the Wrangler’s notably larger size, plusher cabin, more powerful engine, etc. That iconic face remains largely intact, with the famous seven-bar grille signifying that the vehicle wearing it is capable of great off-road feats. The CJ series came about in 1944, when Willys-Overland knew that they had to switch to the civilian market to survive. World War II was ending, and the military wouldn’t be needing Jeeps like cigarettes anymore. So, the CJ was born, standing for Civilian Jeep. It was made to live a tough life in the fields of agriculture, construction, mining, manufacturing and other rough-and-tumble industries. Jeep knew that the civilian variant would have a lifespan in years or even decades, not months or weeks like its battleship brethren. Hence, the CJ is exceptionally well-built, and many survive to this day. This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 from Melbourne, Florida is proof of that quality.
