I plan to drive it on roads more than off road and it would have to go 55 fuel economy if it exists would be nice because. Intend to drive it a bit. I guess that means a average priced engine with fair economy and power that won't smoke the drive train.. Any package come to mind? Joe

Thanks MIke..I love my Gamma Goat but the M-561 isn't the easyest to work on at times. These sound like things a mechanic (when I help him he only charges double) could do fairly easy and I could do alot myself... Joe

A friend has offered to sell me a 725 Ambulance. I plan to use it alot (Flea markets ect) and wonder which would be the most common engine swap for reliability and power. The shock is the back is literally a mint time capsule and all original parts will be saved. Thanks Guys.. Joe

I got a 3/4 inch breaker bar to remove the plug on my Transfer case since the fluid is yellow. It laughed at me (but it was cold) I remember when checking the rear diff and eventually replacing it that I held the breaker in place while my friend, a real mechanic, kicked it with his foot and...

My goat came with metal battery boxes. They were extensivly covered with some rubber type spray and then primmered yellow and painted like the rest of the goat (shudder) red. Here is my quandry..the old vietnam ere motor pool guy who restored my goat found them originally green under the...
