Wayne, I think that refers to quantity in stock.

It does indicate stock quantity.

Well after a long hiatus I'm back at the Jeep.
Brakes done all new lines, wheel cylinders and master, trans back in it with a new clutch. Re built the back sheet metal it was a horrible mess. Tons of work finding and fitting, blasting and priming. Just a bit more blocking and she's ready for paint. It's ready to fire but I'm going to wait until I have the paint on it.
I will post pics shortly

I know it looks like a horder garage but I just picked it up after being kept remote for 3 years

Well more work on the jeep, my friend and I got ambitious and decided to get it going, after almost 30 years of sitting it fired up, just needed the points gapped.
Lots of oil smoke ( I'd been putting oil in the cylinders and turning it over a few times a year) my fuel tank repair even worked. I was thrilled! We even drove it around, it was so neat to see my jeep actually moving under its own power.
Lots of work to get it to this point but very rewarding.image.jpg

Back in the garage after a long day.
I think we must have put 10 miles on it running around at my buddy's farm.
No leaks and all working.
