Portarator Generator Brochure

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: I’ve added some photos of an actual Portarator.

Merton Day obtained this brochure years ago. It’s not a jeep specific item, but it is easy to see how one of these generators hooked to a jeep could prove useful.  The Portarator was installed in the engine compartment for power tools or other electric devices (such as a margarita blender, should the mood strike).

B&B manufacturing produced other Portarator products, as this brochure demonstrates, but I couldn’t find any Portarator’s for sale. Here’s the brochure Merton saved:

“Here is a very complete mostly original CJ5. I believe it received a frame-off restoration in the 1980s. Judging by the engine swap, and the quality of paint both on the exterior as well as under the tub body. The frame is rock solid. Top speed is around 45mph-50mph from the factory. Not suitable for the highway. I have driven it a few hundred miles around town with no mechanical problems.

Almost 100% solid body – Small patch under tool box, rust spot near driver’s fender. Some body damage on driver’s rear quarter. Small amount of rust at bottom of tailgate.
Ultra rare Meyer Half Cab
Late 70s Buick 231 V-6, a little cold natured but runs well once warmed up with a great amount of torque
Could probably use a carburetor cleaning

“1947 CJ2A project
This is just to see if there is any interest. I am in no rush to sell, but if someone is willing to meet my asking price it is all yours.
The Good:
1947 CJ2A frame and axles. Both in good usable condition. Rear axle is the hard to find offset axle and the frame has had the spring hangers removed and relocated to allow for longer and stronger YJ springs. **softer ride with more articulation**
Brand new wheels with 4.5″ backspacing and used 33” mud terrains with a little tread left.
1994 5.7L LT1 from a Cadillac Fleetwood, ran before I pulled it. New aluminum bellhousing and dual disc clutch. Continue reading
