Buick V6 225 near Asheville, NC

UPDATE: Mark found a second engine. He hopes this second one works!

Mark thought he’d found a Buick 225 V6 for his CJ-3B project, but he discovered the block has a bad cylinder. So, he’s looking for another complete engine, though even a good block will do.

Four CJ-5-oriented Questions

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

Four CJ-5 Questions for you all:

  1. Anyone know when (month/year or vin) that the CJ-5 switched from the side tank to the rear? I’ve seen dates between mid 1970 through early 1972.
  2. Similarly, when was the PTO draw bar dropped (month/year or vin)?
  3. When did the CJ-5 spare tire mount move from the side to the back (month/year or vin)?
  4. When was JEEP changed to Jeep on the side of the CJ-5 cowl (month/year or vin)? (somewhere on eWillys I’ve answered this question, as I remember doing the research, but now I can’t find it!)

WANTED: Photo of an Early Monroe 3-Point Lift Tag

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

Ted Jordan is hoping to find a good photo of a data tag from an early Monroe 3-Point Lift. Apparently, the early lifts did not have stampings; instead they had a tag attached as shown in the poor photo below. Ted would like to get a good photo of one so he can have the tag recreated. If you have something, either comment below, email me d @ deilers.com or email Ted direction willysted @ charter.net.
