    what do you consider close to Texas. Arkansas tends to give jeeps away.

    JEEP 1980 CJ5, 6 cyl., 4 spd., 4 WD., 2 tops, full door & 1/2 door. $2,800. Call 501-920-6601 England.

    JEEP 1975, rebuilt engine, new soft top, new tires. $3000 obo. call 501-587-1967 Fayetteville

    JEEP 1971 Rare AMC CJ-6, V-6, PS., winch, new seat, 1/2 cab, run good, spare engine & parts, nearly restored with 4X6 Army Jeep trailer, $3,500. 501-760-3725 Hot Spring.

    Ive seen better prices than this but keep looking at http://www.ardemgaz.com/class/index.asp and im shure youll find a good deal. I found mine for $1800

    I have a 69 Scout 800 that I am selling for 500$ The guy I got it from said that ir ran when he parked it.

    Dana 18 T Case
    rear 44 and front 30 (probably need to up grade these as the 44 is 18 spline)
    3 speed manual - I think that it is a t-98?
    304 IH V8 - makes a easy swap to a 345 or 392
    100" wheel base
    Removable metal full top

    Drop me a line if you are interested.

    I don't know, I was kind of thinking about chopping my truck down to about a 100" wheelbase and converting it to a straight axle-d 4x4.....

    I know someone who just picked up a 40's or 50's Willis and wants to make a few bucks. He did not pay much at all so you probably could get it for maybe $200. It is rough, needs motor. Has axles, trans and transfer case. Lots of potential.

    if its a 3 speed in the scout its probably a t90. t98's are early versions of t18's.

    The m38 should have the same drivetrain, dana 44, t90, dana 18.

    I dont know much about IH 304's, but the 4 cyl in the Jeep is easy to get parts for. Its the same engine that the gas powered Lincoln welders use that are still sold today.

    not too sure about the Jeep, would like to see how 'rough' it is -

    the Scout at Brandon's is pretty sweet...lots of po-ten-chal -

    I also found a Toy in Houston that needs a front axle, so if anyone in close contact with Scott knows if he has a spare, inexpensive one laying around let me know

    If Scott does not have a front toy axle Greg will in about a month. We are put his Ford 9's under his new Toy.
