Well...
Turns out this thing is older than I thought. Serial number on the engine block is F 271003. Which is earlier than anything I've found on this site. 3 speed tranny and the brakes are all drum with no booster. The last guy put a Datsun carb on it so the mileage is actually pretty good on the highway.
Currently have the engine pulled out and am in the process of doin a complete cleanup. Oil filter had been cut off and removed so that is going back on as well as the 4x4.
Which brings me to the next question: can the locking hubcaps be adapted to fit these vehicles. Mine has the caps that keep the front wheels engaged all the time and I would rather be able to switch on and off....
Thanks, will post pics soon.
