My plan is to just get it running and driving for now.

Bear with me as I learn how to upload pictures and learn how to work on the jeep

I Bought a hobart welder with a hopefully good L-134 motor to use in it cause the inline 6 that is sitting in the back of the jeep is not going in the jeep.

Hello, Sorry its been quiet on here been busy with other projects. But I've recently gotten a title to it so that's something and then went and got some more parts to hopefully ether sell or use. Got a set of axles, radiator, two heads, and two carbs and a few misc. things.

Looks like a great project. 
I was just testing a Hobart welder with jeep motor yesterday. 
That’s great it’s already got an alternator.
