Wanted: Holley 1904 for a F-Head
November 10, 2012 • CATEGORIES: wanted This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
Anyone have the right 1904 Holley (or 1909?) for the f-head installation into a flattie? I’m trying to help a reader find one.
If I understand correctly, these are the correct carb numbers: R-2003A und R-2003-1A (Ford p / n of CODE-9510B or CODE-9510D)
Here are some links with information about the Holley carb / f-head / flattie install

1954 CJ-3B Tehachapi, CA **SOLD**
November 9, 2012 • CATEGORIES: CJ-3B • TAGS: bed-extension, Extended. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
UPDATE: *SOLD** Was on eBay
Is this a one off or an aftermarket extension of some kind.
“The Good:
This vehicle is quite complete. No major components are missing. Frame has minimal surface rust. Floorboards are solid, Only a few rust through areas on body. It has an unusual extension at the rear of the body, could be rare.
The Bad:
Will need complete restoration. Fenders bent, no windshield or mirrors, engine is seized. Left front brake binds at times (hard to push vehicle). /font>
I purchased this thinking I would fix it up. However, I’ve got too many projects, and not enough time or money to pursue them all. This vehicle sat out in the elements for quite a while. It looks like some kids put sticks and rocks in the radiator, battery and probably the engine. I have no paperwork for it, the guy I bought it from didn’t either. It’s been out of California’s system so long that it should be easy to get a duplicate title. I’d be happy to fill out a bill of sale if needed.”

There’s an image of rusted out rear floor. The seller says it has been fixed, but maybe they meant different rust.

1945 MB Woodstock, NY eBay

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on ebay.
Andy’s got this MB for sale.
“Nice restorable or great parts vehicle – Willys 45′ model MB army jeep. Has pretty decent floors, gas tank sump, and very nice front fenders, hood and grill.
Engine is a civilian block, and runs well, with many original accessories left on it. Drivetrain is original t84 transmission, and military full floating axles.
Frame is in good shape overall, and not rusted thru or bent anywhere. Unfortunately the heavy welded front plow mount will have to be cut off. Looks like it could be cut off pretty decently, or install some new front frame rails which are available as reproductions. Has rare late style pintle hook..
Seats are the original military issue. What is not shown, but included in the auction is the original military gas tank. Looks like the tank could be lined after its cleaned out.”
