I thought, i should post up on how it came out. Its been a while, but im still snooping around here. I did end up selling it. Funny how still looking for another, but going to do an m37 next, maybe m151 somewhere.

THx. Ya, i can see the light. Unfortunately, that's the killer part too lol. See light, but still got a few boulders to crawl over. Really only have the engine left, and that rq machinist, so not something i can do when have time or just want to push. Keep catching my self day dreaming about...

Up date. All chassis done, new NOS Marine core vented Master cylinder, steering refurbished, horn, rebuild my whole wire harness, new shocks. tore engine down. Found out number 2 piston ring froze and scared crank. Pulled crank and piston rod from spare engine, one in pic. Need new seals, rings...

Yay, time for an update. Ya, i know i'm not exactly speedy with this. As of today i finally got a rolling chassis. Took alot of time to get this far. First thing i did since last post....BUILD SAWHORSES, and dang are they nice. Forgot how nice it is to have a good pare, they are also my new work...

Ok, time for an update. Never enough time or money :), that why it's been a while. Well i finally got the frame straightened, and i did all the welding rep it needed, including replacing the whole gun support. Then i sand blasted it ( learned the cost saving of doing it your self is not worth...

Realy do want to go to tower park, but low probability. Its a long drive (6 hours 1 way) and i'm broke. Dreading the $ just to buy the rebuild kit engine needs + frame. You going to be there i take it mike ? bringing any goodies ? Hoping to get away with just a block kit and hot bath. Think the...

Taking a break on body work. Took everything off the frame and engine on a stand. Going to trash the frame, looking for another. My 52, found out last guy cut all the shock mounts off and end tips of the back bumper cross-member. I could salvage and mounts off the 64, but that's a bit of work...

Just an update. Well i tried to do an axle swap on my frames, and the u-bolts were rusted solid. Tried everything and no good, had to cut. Went to all the local auto parts store and no one carried a suitable replacement for the U-bolt. In the end i ordered new bolts and shackles, my rubbers were...

Ya, more money. Expected to have new floors, was hoping the hat channel would be just repairs. My neighbor said he could re-bend the frame, got to get him to look at it now that body is off. Still have hope, because no cracks in the frame. Only real surprise was the hat channels being that bad.

I got the body off today. Found some good and some bad surprises. A lot of good body, unfortunately need replace back floor, and the hat channels. The frame has almost no rot, just light rust. Only rot saw was in back bumper, think the inner bar rusted. Defininitly a bent frame. Hoping to be...

Well....****, that's been my day. Tried to start it after it shut it's self down with squealing. Got it to run for about 12 seconds and then it squealed and shut down. Locked last time, but didn't this time. Found out when i rebuilt my carb, the seals were to old and turned to mush, also i...

Well, i did an oil change on the transmission and transfer. They were both waaayyy to low and gunk. Trany wasn't shifting and the teeth are a bit torn up. Finally got it shifting again, lube helped a lot. Started it and it was running fine, coughing because the carb needs new seals. Then a loud...

Well, i got the new radiator and the engine runs like a charm, All the electrical system checks out, What a relief that all the lights work. Got my new gauges and batter box top as well. I also refurbished my wipers, they look like crap but run like new. Also stripped the body of hardware so i...

Everyone loves pics, Here are few smoky ones. Have a vid of it running but don't know how to upload and don't feel like making a tube account.

WOOT. I got the jeep running, now to find a radiator, that just jumped to #1 slot. Had white smoke and some oil out the pipe, but was purring like a kitten. I am now mosquito/fly free for 1 mile :).

Got carb rebuilt and new throttle/choke cables ran. Oil system back together. Now not getting oil flow. I believe it is ether a clog after the pick up or needs a new pump. Blew all oil lines with air and no issues. Wondering, is there anyone around the Murrieta, Hemet, Temecula areas in SoCal...

Thx Maverick. I dropped oil pan and cleaned sludge out. Put it back in and go figure the last bolt for the pulley skid plate doesn't want to got in, think it's stripped.Also pulled the Oil filter and cleaned more sludge out there. I ground down both and repainted, looks like new. Also got my...

Re ran most of the fuel lines. Replace the points, condenser, and coil, have power all the way to the spark plug, but still doesn't want to run. Now my Volt gauge isn't working. Tomorrow i am gonna do a true compression test. Got the seats and gas tank out as well. Debating on getting my...

Tires tires tires everywhere and no sets that hold air. Got the extra frame together and my new rebuilt starter in. Great compression and everything is a turning, just need spark plugs that work. Also got the dash lights to work, although it was just a flick of switch lol. Have a question...

Anyone have any pics on the starter gasket looks like, with the no crush cooper spacers ? Mine didn't have it, and i cant find anything on a replacement. Was the gasket cork or a rubberized cork ?
