When they rebuild my 360 it came back red also. Not really please with that but I didn't get it done, the PO did so when I go to put it back in I will paint it the right color.Originally Posted by Dusty
Oh, and like was said, lucky for getting it so cheap.....
It's not that I am afraid to die....

that definitely a AMC motor. Like said no matter what it is it is a good score. And the tag that TUFCJ was talking about appears to be missing unless it is on the other valve cover, if i remember correctly they are usually on the front of the passenger sideOriginally Posted by Dusty
Also i believe Trailbst on the board could use those marker lights of the front grill, if they are not broken. Might want to pm him about it.

Checked the VIN. I have the title and it says it is a 401. THe carb is a four barrel. I had to blow the squirrel nest out and count =D> . The jeep is all original. The title is from 79 so this guy bought it when it was 5 years old.
Tried to start it. It turns over but doesn't seem to wanna fire. I'll try once or twice more then just yank it.
Thanks for all the help.
