Ha. You know what’s funny is almost sent you text about the original question I posted. Decided against it because I didn’t want to bother you. just so you know, I think the project is going great. I’m learning a thing or two. Many of my friends can’t wait to see it finished. My neighbor is a...

The bottom is in rough shape. i have to reinforce the frame under the transmisson. It is a USMC Vic. Or at least it was.

Wait. I got mine from a guy in your city.

It does. Well it did until I started taking it apart. I got it home, dropped new batteries in it and drove it down the street and back in my neighborhood, I can’t wait to get this thing at 100% road worthy, because just in the 5 or 10 minutes I took it for a spin made me giggle like a little...

Gone. Lol. Well the wiring to all the lights are gone. Battery cables are still there.

It’s possible. The generator is currently not plugged into anything, which made me wonder what part was missing that it plugs into. The wiring for the vehicle is gone, well at least the wiring to all the lights. The battery cables are still in it.

Sounds good. Thanks. I’m not quite at greasing anything yet. I’m still in the process of breaking this thing down cleaning, and busting rust. I’m also trying to figure out what parts I will be needing in the future. More as an estimate at how much I might end up spending.

Thanks CWC, I saw a video that had a little black box in that space. But your information brings me a little relief knowing that the black box I saw is probably not that important. I thought it might be something for the wiring or maybe the windshield wiper motor. I’ll keep my eyes peeled on...

Thanks Karl, I did download a copy of the manual. I may have to look at the ones on this site. So far this thing has been a blast. I find it therapeutic just messing with it. I’m not planning on making it parade pretty, I just want to drive it around and off road it. It’s got a little ways to go...

I recently got my hands on a ’67 Ford M151A1. Not only am I new to this endeavor, I’m also new to vehicles. In other words, I know absolutely nothing about mechanical things, other than how to break them. Here is my question. I have an open space in the engine compartment. It is the area right...
