Owner Type Jeep TAMIYA / Enthusiast
the owner-type jeep. For some, this vehicle was nothing more than a tacky or worn down old coot, covered in chrome and equipped with only the barest essentials: A set of wheels, an engine, and a steering wheel and pedals.
Owner-type jeeps refurbished from military units were initially powered by the original Willys and Ford engines, even retaining their original four-wheel drivetrains.
Soon, local assemblers began to design and build their own versions of the owner-type, using engines and transmissions from cheaper Japanese surplus parts.
A typical owner-type jeep has a body shell made of galvanized iron or stainless steel, with either a plain exterior or decked out in body graphics. It seats up to six occupants, with a driver and passenger in front, and four rear passengers facing each other).
Some owner-types have a front-facing rear bench, and extended wheelbase models even have as much as three seating rows.
