That everything seems to be working on my jeep. Finally. The rebuilt engine by L&M purrs like a kitten an starts up right away. All the gauges, including the speedo, work. The transmission and overdrive shift easily and work smoothly. Just thought Id share, I'll get some pics up soon.

Dan, those are precious moments - thanks for sharing. It gives me renewed hope for her sister ship, MD26784 (10/52). Waiting for the pics. Enjoy! David

Congratulations...finally. You certainly have had a time of it but you hung in there. Looking forward to the pictures. I had my own trials and tribulations but nothing like yours. Mine is back together with a new head gasket but I only have a few minutes on the engine. Hoping it hangs together.

Mike

Ssshhhh - you don't want it to here you! Just kidding - great work! I know you're very happy about that accomplishment! Mine, on the other hand, is a different story - she's going to the shop on Monday because I don't have time to work on her before the Georgia rally in 2 weeks!
