Definitely gonna check it out. This is only a few hours away.

Congratulations! Hope to hear you on the airwaves if you ever go HF!

Good deal! Nice looking engine bay!

I just had to replace mine about three weeks ago. $186. Not bad for a 136 amp alternator. I guess there are some advantages to not having a Land Rover... ;>{)

Happy Thanksgiving to all at OB!!! Thank you for creating this fantastic site!

Yup. It was gravel except about 100 k each side of Whitehorse. But they ran graders everyday and it wasn't difficult to hit 70 mph even in the gravel. You just had to be good a flat trackin'... Then when you hit the Alaska border it turned into pavement with potholes and frost heaves that...

I have driven the Alcan twice. May 1980 in a 1974 Olds Custom Cruiser Station Wagon (in the middle, Mt St. Helens blew up and added a chapter to the trip) four days from Hollywood CA to Anchorage, and again in 1982 with my wife in her 1974 German Opel Manta (very cool car) three and a half days...

Pretty much the way mine is set up. I have both a UV-5R and a Btech dual band. Use CHIRP with both. I recently added the five MURS channels for some additional options... 8>D

I remember watching a fellow scout scramble an egg on a paper bag over the fire coals, during Order of the Arrow. That was pretty cool.

A diesel tank I have no problem with. If it will require catalyst and Def, then I will skip it. Those are unnecessary and degrading add-ons. I am currently looking for a early 80s VW diesel Rabbit, Jetta or P/U to assume the daily driver function currently filled by my WJ. My wife had one...

Maps and compass. I always loved maps when I was a kid. I learned to use a compass and Topo maps in the boy Scouts. I had to perfect my navigation skills for piloting aircraft and sailing offshore and coastal. I have used GPS (and Loran prior) mainly for business mapping. I have enjoyed...

That's Great! Congratulations!!

If it includes the transmission, transfer case, and axle re-gear, then 15-20k is in the ballpark. If not, then it is high. I can get a new crate 4.7 for ~2500-3000. Knowing that the trans will have to be replaced and maybe the transfer case if it won"t mate, plus an axle re-gear to keep the...

Nice!

Priceless!!!
