These things are interesting in that they are basicly a DJ 3A & were
built up to the mid 60s still with the L head motor, over 10 years
after regular 3A production ceased in favour of the 3B F heads.

I was in the Philippines to visit my fiancée in January. The Jeepneys are a
trip, no pun intended. Some of them are pretty ratty looking, but some of
them are extensively customized inside and out. Very inexpensive way to get
around the cities there. Our most expensive fare was 11 pesos, or $.22, and
that was about a 5-7 mile ride. Each Jeepney has a designated route it must
stay on during the time it is picking up fares. It is the most commonly used
public transportation there. Pretty much like riding on a school bus with
one long seat running down each side of the bus rather than the short seats.
