That makes some sense. Just one more thing to see if I can restore that plate to make it look decent. It was painted over at one point.

Any thoughts on what that actually means?
Agree. I already bought a service manual which has already helped.
I haven't gotten into the alternator set up. The owner told me the ignition was converted to 12 volt. There is a key switch and a toggle switch to start it. Just at a glance, I assumed I had an...
Videos of it running. I filmed, that is a friend grinding the gears.

The previous owner told me it wouldn't start without sitting on the starter for a very long time. I "assumed" he was correct. He wasn't. The Jeep hasn't been started in over a month. I followed your...
Going to try and answer these questions tomorrow. This won't be the first time I tell someone I appreciate the help.
I believe this is the Carter YS-950. I am not familiar with a heat riser. Did quick research, would a 1970 4-134 have a heat riser? I haven't done any investigation but know this. The fuel is not on...
I am not driving it for the moment only because the transmission and transfer case is leaking. I haven't checked fluid level and as long as I can keep fluid in it, on to fuel delivery. Once started,...
I wish I had better pictures of the mount but this is all I have for the moment. See the bracket on the top right rear of the drivers seat? That would be the mount for the top of the rifle, probably...
Not posting looking for a reply, posting this more for posterity and to have it show in a search for others. My Jeep was made for the Swiss military. On the right side of the drivers seat, top and...
That would be pretty cool but if it was built for the Swiss army, why return it to the US? I have to say that I am very curious to know if the odometer is correct. Miscellaneous facts....found a...
And not rusted out!
I simply want to drive it. Would be nice for people to think it is cool. Authenticity wasn't a goal. Kinda nice that maybe it was build for the military when I was under the impression it was just a...
"The Swiss military is a formidable organization" - My ignorance and failure as a joke. Sorry about that. :(
I am using the search function and didn't find this answer so I will ask it here. As...
Hi gm,
In the link provided, it says the top mount vacuum wipers ended in 68 but mine has them and is a 70. I bought it with the understanding it was nothing more than a CJ5 but maybe it actually...
A more clear picture.
More pictures
I've been mildly looking for a "green" Jeep. I don't care about authenticity. Just wanted a "military" Jeep that is driveable and will be driven. Found and bought one last week. But I can't tell...
