Tires Installed on the Racer

September 19, 2023 • CATEGORIES: Features

I think this tire setup should work just fine for now. There are skinny wranglers on the front and some classic desert dogs on the back.

I decided to upgrade to a 1″ bore master cylinder from Wilwood for the clutch. Honestly, it kind of feels light and cheap. Unfortunately, the new MC did not include an adapter (A FEMALE(3/8-24 INVERTED) with a MALE(1/8-27 NPTF) to connect the flair tipped line to the MC and our local auto stores didn’t have the correct adapter either. Ugh  … This should reduce the clutch stroke without making it too difficult to use (my first jeep had a really stiff clutch, but I never minded it). Hopefully, I’ll have all hooked up by later today.

“I started something I can’t finish 1947 CJ2A… I bought this about two years ago. Ran and drove good, shifted well then had carb issues. It had a sbc 283/t-90 combo, but it started running rough. I pulled the 4 barrel Holley carb for a motorcraft 2 barrel, in doing so stripped the threads in the intake manifold. Ended up pulling the motor, found 2, 225 odd fires out of a jeepster. I also bought a SM420. Planned on building a nice trail rig. With lack of funds this project has been on standby and it’s not going anywhere. I have a rolling chassis of a jeepster along with this. I’m asking $6k for everything. Id be also inclined to trade, fishing boat, dual sport motorcycle, harley, Hobie PA, etc . I’m open to ideas. Of course delete is this is not appropriate. I AM IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA I’ll take $6k cash for everything.”

The windshield and hard half cab are for a CJ2a and do not fit quite right. Seat frames, wheels, and heater appear to be period correct. Located in Ashton, Idaho AND NO WHERE NEAR and hundreds of miles away from Boise or Coeur d’alene, Idaho. Tires will hold air just long enough to load on a trailer. Price is firm or I will part it out to make my money.”

“1948 Willys CJ2A with clean Utah title in hand. The Good: 350 CI Chevrolet Goodwrench crate engine with very few miles, it runs well. Edelbrock Pro-Flo multiport EFI, adapter bellhousing mates to the original manual transmission, transfer case features twin shifters. Clutch is like new, All new brake shoes and wheel cylinders, new wheel bearings and hubs in front axle, and lots of other new parts. AutoMeter gauges all work. Includes a soft top. All fluids are fresh. The Bad: Power steering isn’t connected, unsure if it will work or not. Brakes and clutch are not working, likely a bad master cylinder and possibly a clutch slave cylinder. Some cancer on the floor pan support rails which is common because these were built with wood between the metal in these areas. Otherwise the rest of the body is cancer free. This 1948 CJ2A is a great platform for a rock crawler, sand buggy, or whatever your vision is. The 350 small block Chevy has tons of power for a small, lightweight vehicle like this. You can finish it as is or put the clean body on a custom frame built for whatever you’re in to.”

I bought these three Scenic Jeep Tour slides off of eBay, supposedly from 1964. The pic with the FC *might* be ours. I am waiting for the slide to take a better pic.

With the racer near done and the nice weather, I plan on tackling a couple outside projects, then begin work on the FC Tour jeep.

“The 1964 Willys Jeep Station Wagon is powered by a 134ci Hurricane inline-four mated to a three-speed manual transmission, and it underwent a partial refurbishment after being acquired by the seller in May 2021. Work included re-trimming the two-tone blue interior, re-plating the chrome bumpers, rebuilding the carburetor, and replacing the wiring harness, fuel pump, water pump, windshield wiper motor, shocks, and combination gauge. The truck is finished in blue with a white roof, and equipment includes 15″ steel wheels with full covers, a cowl fresh-air vent, wooden cargo floor slats, a heater, and an ashtray. This Willys station wagon is now offered with owner’s and service manuals as well as a clean Ohio title in the seller’s name.”
