Well.....its official, it is a 401 but serial # plate on valve cover missing, and when getting the windows closed to the top today, I turned the key to start.....just to see if it still worked after sitting 10+ years, and it actually kicked in and engine turned.
Only had jumper cables from Gramps my CJ5, to just battery cables on Pig, but that was encouraging. Need to clean out gas tank/lines/new filter/replace carb (Mongo228 had a new MC2150 he donated...thank you) etc, then will get a battery in it and fire it up.
Window switches and door lock switch all work on drivers door, drivers seat will move forward but then not backwards, front seat tilt works up & down but back of seat...no, all lights outside seem to work as designed except rear red side markers (maybe bulbs), rear window works up & down with dash switch and rear key switch. Tailgate latch needs greased up as it is a bit stiff.
Found front door panels, new in box arm rests, window and door seals with OEM labels on them, OEM jack and wrench.
Misc boxes of other parts pieces of the previous 360 that was in it including 4 bbl intake, heads, alternator, (2) air pumps, (2) power steering pumps, brackets, new gasket sets, filters, hardware kits, rear driveshaft, spare auto transmission....TSM, Hayes Manual, multiple issues of 4x4 magazines, FSJ magazines, original owners manual with registration/insurance cards......on and on. It truly was Christmas in April out there
Also found out the truck has had an over spray of same color, so paint is not original.
So, give me some time to see what I will need, and want to keep, then might have some stuff for sale. Probably more towards fall I think.
