The Valentine CJ-3A APU?

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A, Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The whose-it-what-huh? I’ve did a few searches and added some more info following the jeep photos.

BACKSTORY: A few months ago Nick discovered someone with an APU. We assumed it was a O.E. Szekely modified APU, as that’s the only type anyone had unearthed. That’s why Nick was shocked when he took the time to visit the man with the APU. There, he discovered it was made by the Valentine Welder and Manufacturing Company. Once he saw it, he knew he had to have it. He made an offer and bought it. Nick shared more over at G503:

Dauntless V-6, 3speed, power steering, Offenhouser 4brl intake and valve covers, new edelbrock carb, new HEI Distributor, new clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, and fork. 8000lb winch, Tuffy Security box in rear, new Best Top Tiger top, new factory style gauges, new windshield, new wiring harness and fuse block, new 31×10.50 15 BFG KM2’s including spare, new steel wheels, new aluminum radiator, new heater, new baffled turn downs off headers. Duel battery set up mounted in ammo cans mounted to rear fender wells, tilt steering column. Sure I am forgetting some new parts, but that’s all I can think of right now.
What it needs done: Wiring is about 1/2 done, needs finished. Mounts built for new aluminum radiator, and radiator installed. Carburetor and fuel system cleaned out, it ran , but fuel has been sitting in it for about 3 or 4 years now. Brake system, brakes work but I have never been in them, and bearings gone through. Body is rough and has bondo but looks good from a distance. Don’t really want to sell it so no low ballers, but I am moving and don’t really have a place to keep it. Just trying to recoup a little bit of the thousands I have invested in it. ”
