If anyone thinking of buying, I'll chip in some money for engine pulleys and brackets. And A/C underdash.

Anyone live near York, PA ?

[Geeeep]

That's no York County car (not nearly enough rust).

I'm about 45 miles away but no free time to get up there before next week

[chr1s]

tempting...

Kinda looks like the wag they just used to shoot "The Lovely Bones" ( Peter Jackson film shot here recently) but it was WAYYYY cleaner

[Chris P.]

Too bad this didn't come up sooner. I was just in York last weekend.

In the question section the seller states there is no A/C, although the pictures show it.

[red mistress]

That was me asking that question about A/C and bumpers and needing more pictures.

His answer really confused me- also.

+1...maybe they converted the compressor for on on-board air use

[fulsizjeep]

fer gawds sake dennis, just buy it, paint it red and drive it like you stole it...

[red mistress]

Maybe my expectations are too high but I just see nice parts on this wag.

[fulsizjeep]

Then I advise you to not come to Colorado and start eyeing any 401s.

[Lindel]

Just so you know, Flint and Krista have dibs on all 401's...

[red mistress]

I've been dreamin about Sportside and going over the top with it.

Gonna pull my built 401 from Scrambler and put in in Sportside.

Then get me Indy's Aluminum block 401 for Scrambler.

So no worries on me buying up 401's.

[red mistress]

Got nice place to work, CH&A shop.

I live near York and if I'm not mistaken, I think that Jeep used to belong to a guy that went to my church. If it is, it sold at an estate auction a few years ago for $600 after the old owner passed away. A guy bought it for his grandson's first vehicle. Looks a little rougher now, but still pretty good for PA.

Well... We hope that not too many are leaving Colorado at least. Ole Jerry got one outa here last Fall and I was broken hearted. It was red too!

Dennis, just kiddin ya man. I am impressed with your enthusiasm on the 327 Gladiator.

[red mistress]

Yea, member's didn't know how serious I was when lookin for Glad. Shoulduda posted rig pics but didn't know how- still don't fully. I've been addicted to 4x4 building as long as I can remember. This belt routing for ac & ps is gettin old. I'm at point of buyin whole dang rig just get engine pulleys! Must of been several versions for 327? Prob need to join Rambler forum.

I believe this when it comes to accessories. The 327 I had when I was young and even more stupid was pretty plain with just an alt & water pump on it. Inline PVC from carb to the intake valley was about the only thing hooked up to it for breathing besides the vacuum advance and heater box. It was a fun engine. Made the Ambassador turn heads.



This is from a 65 Rambler Marlin. That is the same PS pump I sent you pix for. All steel mounting bracket for this design.


Another 327 but w/2bbl in a 66 Gladiator.


And it was all red back then for the best Rambler V8s.

Just put a straightedge across the respective pulleys and see which crank groove they point to.
You already know that the alternator, and water pump go to one groove. Then you can see in the pic here that the AC and PS have thier own belts, so just line 'em up with the crank, if you put a belt on the wrong groove you should be able to tell with a straight edge. This pic looks like it's the PS at the front groove, then the AC and then the alternator (with the AC and alternator running off the water pump pulley also, or is there an idler in there for the AC belt and it engages or clears the water pump pulley?).

[red mistress]

That RED Glad engine pic boosted my spirits up, Thanks. Study the ebay motor shots of this wag and then super wag. I've got the steel Eaton PS mount and aluminum mount. Must have wrong pulley somewhere cause crank pulley has 3 grooves. PS & AC tryin to use same groove. The idler arm wants different groove. Alt is fine. One of the ebay looks to have different idler arm (cast bracket) than the bent steel one I have.

[Gambler68]

yeah it's pretty obvious in that pic the crank pulley is a 3 groove, the way the belts go. Hopefully you find the right bracket! Sure there's one out there!
