1966 Jeep Wagoneer Base 5.3L

1966 Jeep Wagoneer Description

This is a good Jeep, quite well preserved. Has the original 327 and AT, single speed transfer case select 2wd/4wd. It runs really nicely, no smoke and no blow by from the engine. Od reads 40k but 140K miles is more likely. I took the top end of the engine apart and installed new gaskets and painted everything fairly meticulously, rebuilt AFB which might need some more adjustment on the choke, but runs really smooth and has good power, no ticking valvetrain parts and zero smoke or blow-by, engine is GOOD. Fuel tank was removed and re-lined, fuel system is clear, might want to reinforce the weld that hold it up though, I'm not a great welder. Radiator is good with leaks and cools fine, exhaust appears to have no leaks either? Cracked windshield.... cool big old glass packs exiting from the side, sounds great! Steering pump is quiet, steering does not seem to be overly loose, trans and 4x4 working feels solid, though I have not driven it at hwy speeds due to inop brakes. It has most surface rust with the exception of the the rear quarter panels which trapped water and mud so these need to be replaced, but the rest of the rust is superficial, areas with most surface rust is one door frame and the trunk area but they have good metal underneath, I checked. Frame, undercarriage and rest of vehicle is dry, including floor pans. Interior is what it is.. not bad at all, see the pics. All in all this is an easy driver/resto, needs very little body work, just quarter panels and paint, and brakes and you will be mostly "there". Will need to be trailered due to zero brakes at the moment. I do reserve the right to sell locally, any questions welcome, thanks.
