Hello Guys, it has been a few weeks sice i have had he time to log on and see what's going on. I have been busy working on my newest project it is a 1966 CJ5 with a factory Dauntless Buick 225 V6 V-6 the last it ran was some time around 1985, it now is running. :D
 
That Jeep is sweet!! Very nice find! I've been looking at the V-6 engines, and have found a couple for sale, how are they to work on?
 
Thanks Petescj. As far as working on the Dauntless Buick 225 V6 V-6 this is my first one, I learned all about the Odd and even fire 225 v-6 engine. This one was last running sometime around 1984 or 1985 it was a pain in the *** to get running ( wrong rotor wrong firing order wrong timing) it now starts with little or no effort runs great but it stll is burning a little oil yet but that's ok. I have only driven it around my yard and down my road working on the brakes right now.:cool:

That's very cool. I found one that was basically carb to pan, had fenderwell headers and was supposed to have run when pulled, for like, $350 or so... but I'm currently a thousand miles from home and have enough :dung: to haull back next month as it is, but I still should have bought it. Would have worked well in the '48 Willys I've been thinking about getting.. same problem though, too far from home right now... I need to quit buying stuff!! LOL
 
I needed another Jeep like I need a hole in my head, but for $800 I could not pass it up. I will keep everyone posted with the project.:D
