I am sure there are people here ready to buy your project. You have done a lot of great work on it.

You have come so far with it. I know how other stuff can get in the way but you have a very nice project going.

ok. From the photos it looked like you built a complete new dash and did not use the old one. Thanks.

Would you sell the center pod from your old dash? My dash had the center pod modified to add a modern light switch and other junk. All I need is the center pod, dont need the whole old dash. It looks like its riveted on. Let me know. Thanks.

Just hated that I had to sell my FAV but I found another one and just started putting it back together. It is completely in pieces and down to the bare frame. It is listed in the FAV section now under rebuilding #91 FAV. Can't believe I started this thread back in 2016. Where did the time go.

The dash is going to be a little tricky. The previous owner removed the military light switch and engine protection assembly and installed modern switches. A little metal work and fabrication will be needed.

I finished the rear brakes over the weekend. Next I will be fab'ing all new hard lines for the brakes and clutch.

It turned out pretty good.

I started working on the dash. The center pod where the light switch and engine protection system go was cut and replaced with the boat switch plate. I am going to build a new plate and put a new original light switch in. Did anyone reproduce the engine protection plate or have a spare they...

That makes sense. Also has the small hook eyebolt for a safety chain or to attach a cable to the pin for the hole? Could be it.

They were. I just took everything off for the photos. I have been guilty of dropping a washer or bolt down a intake port. Learned that lesson the hard way! Thanks.

This is the bracket that I cut off on each side. It was welded really well to the frame. Took a lot of work to cut and grind these off. Anyone have an ideas what they were for?

Installed the engine and cut off the strange square tube brackets that were next to the seats. Not sure what they were for. Perhaps side seats that sat in the basket. Ground down the welds and it looks ok. Also bought new wheels and tires for the front. FV came with spindle-type 4 inch wide...

I also installed the mounts for the radios. 1 for my prc-77 and the other for a r-442 radio.

I actually got a full day to work on my FAV and it was a good one. The rear suspension is done except for the shocks. The trans axle is in and shifter working. I cleaned and mounted the fuel tank and installed a new sending unit. The engine I have is a 1835cc with lightened flywheel and deep...

That is the power box for the HID lights the previous owner installed. There are 2 of them.

Last week I cleaned, sanded and painted the front backing plates and bolted them up, Then added the wheel cylinder and adjusters. I hope to get the new shoes and spring kit installed soon. I will try to press the new TIMKEN bearings in the drums this week and finish up the brakes. I actually...

After sanding and primering the entire frame I have just finished applying the first coat of Deep Forest Green Camo paint.
