Hahaha! Definitely not your M O gm. We can set you up in an LS that's for sure.

True, the rust belt will offer more of a selection of options. I'll probably stick with my local selections for rust free candidates. They are...

Up here in the rust belt, chevy pick-ups are a great resource for LS engines / drivetrain. They had a real issue with their frames rotting out.

Great photo Mike! I hope you had a great trip! The Goodwood festival of speed is an awesome event for sure. With the IROC series being reborn this...

I would, but it's had a barn resting on top of it for so many years, plus it was roached out pretty bad before. The last conversation I had with my...

Far out Mike! Vintage racing is very cool. It looks like you are stepping back in time in England!

We are currently in Chichester, England at the Goodwood Revival enjoying some vintage racing. There is also an amazing array of WW2 vehicles! More...

gm you need to get a hold of tat Scout! Those mid 60's were cuties. I know you can restore it. $30K restored but, I bet it would go for way more at...

My Great Uncle had a mid-sixties Scout 80. It was a pile of rust, but it worked great around his spread. I spent many a summer day as a youngster...

Ironically, my first 4x4 was an 1968 International Scout! Wrenched on that thing for my first few years, made my own "Spring over axle" lift kit. ...

I have to agree with you on the sliding windows. I've been looking for a long time for an affordable yet not rotten to a pile International Scout...

Glad my suggestions might help you, Cat! Yes, a hard top is incredibly valuable if you live in a climate that features rain and especially snow. ...

Another thing I discovered (possibly everyone but me already knows), when mounting the top and fitting doors, it worked best for me to attach the top...

You are going to love that top when you get it working. If you are actually using it as a Jeep, you cant beat having a top in the rain and/or cold.

Also, just to confirm, my top also has those nylon strikers. The set you found would've worked perfectly for me.

Great info guys! Never considered retrofitting existing regulators / updating to roller chain sprockets,,,,,,,,,now that makes perfect sense and far...

I goofed in saying KW when I was referring to Kenworth, especially on the Kaiser Willys forum. The link below has the Kenworth bicycle chain...

"I'm really not looking forward to replacing all the wiring, especially under the dash," If you go with a KW harness (or similar one) the good...

Hey Cat, I've got a similar Kelly hard top and haven't quite gotten to the point of actively working on it, but I've been thinking about it some and...

Thanks, guys, for all the responses on the wiring harness. I suppose you have confirmed for me that my concern or worry is not unfounded about...

This is a Kelly hardtop and the chain regulators have plastic / nylon sprockets for the twisted link chain. The driver door has at least one tooth...

There are a few options for the window regulators, with the closest being the manual KW regulators. Even the newer bicycle chain styles being an...

Heck, I don't run my stuff nice either... If you can't Dodge it, Ram it!

That would be a treat to receive a Christmas card from the Senior Chief with Ham's 48 on it, or the best in show PeeJ from Bmorgil!

I bought a little battery tender from Napa when I first got the battery for the test stand and it seems to be doing well. I don’t have a charging...

That is such a nice portrait of Ham's 48'.

Hahaha! "Drive it like ya stole' it" is the phrase of old.

Work continues on the old Jeep,,,,,,,,,,The Kelly hardtop is in need of total disassembly for proper repairs to be made. Unfortunately I simply...

"I don't race clean with other people's equipment" Drive it like you have a sponsor!
