If it was converted to 12V, they might have left the original lights in it, they would have just been super dim. All the bulbs should say 12V or 24V on them somewhere.
If you want to put it back to 24V, then you will need the military 25amp generator and external regulator box. Then if they had put 12V lights in it, you will need to go source replacement 24V units.
The coil is built into the distributor on the factory 24V military setup, so if you are going to use that distributor, you would have to run the correct 24V setup (coils are voltage specific).
You can pretty much do it one of 2 different ways-the correct military setup which is the 24V generator, separate voltage regulator and original military distributor with built-in coil.
Or, a civvy F-head (think CJ-5) 12V distributor with external (separate) 12V coil and a generic civvy 12V alternator with a built in regulator.
had at some point painted it PURPLE. I don't even want to know.....
Does it have an aftermarket windshield washer pump/tank under the hood which is piped to spigot under the dash?
Does the windshield washer tank smell like whiskey?
If so, the jeep was named "Burple" and was used by an old friend of mine for low speed, mellowed out, backroad cruising.
The washer tank was filled with whiskey. He carried a cooler of ice, and a mug. The w/w button was positioned so that he could hold the mug under the spigot with his right hand and activate the button with his right thumb.
He had Canadian Club on tap in that jeep.
He and my uncle were working a plan to modify some bare wheels so they could run it on the miles of abandoned railroad tracks in the area.
He ran out of time before he could ride the rails.
ITS NOT MY FAULT!!!! i haven't seen that jeep before in my life! lol nice find
