1951 CJ-3A Valentine APU Des Moines, IA $8000

Here’s a very rare CJ-3A Valentine-Modified APU.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/837017479769475/permalink/2872363476234855/

“It is with much sadness that I post this unique gal for sale.
What do I have: replacement title says ‘44 but I don’t think that’s right. I believe that she is a 1951 CJ-3A and NOT a WW2 Jeep. I believe it is one of 75 jeeps that the Valentine Weldong Company converted for use as a Navy APU. The hole in the dash along with a few holes where their badge would go and the hood bump leads me to this conclusion. I have no proof of this, just what the evidence seems to indicate.
Engine: She does have the F4-134 engine that was put into the Navy APUs along with a very well done hood bump to create the additional clearance. Runs great and clean if you drive her often. Did spit some smoke at startup recently after sitting for a couple months but cleared right up.
4-wheel drive: is operational, Continue reading →

Updates Sun or Monday

August 30, 2024 • CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Life’s been busy this last week. I’ll update as soon as I can!

Improving the steering was one project I addressed this week. First, I worked through both Heim joints and the quick-steer, cleaning and lubing as much as I could. Then, thanks to Rob Stafford’s suggestion, I modified the power steering pump, first by drilling a slightly larger hole through the servo valve, then I lengthened the spring that controls the actuation rate. I felt this was the least invasive of the modification options.

Here is one of the links I relied upon: https://www.pirate4x4.com/threads/modifiying-saginaw-power-steering-pump-revive.2712489/. I would call the improvement drastic, but it does seem to have improved the steering. I figured making this change was easier and made more sense than trying to remove the quicksteer, which will be a bigger project.

I also spend some time looking at the rear axle, as I thought it had shifted. After making additional measurements, I concluded that my initial estimations were wrong. The axle hadn’t moved; when at the race, I’d mis-measured. Anyway, I was happy to make a dumb mistake, as it meant I didn’t have to address the issue.

August 1960 Traveller Brochure

August 27, 2024 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features • TAGS: Traveller. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I bought this rare Traveller brochure off of ebay, one I’d never seen. It’s printed on a heavier than usual paper, almost card stock thick. This is the earliest example of a Traveller brochure that I’ve seen. This brochure is form number 8-9-tr-60-8-1.

This brochure starts as a 5.5″ x 8.5″ brochure. Here’s the front page. The use of “Traveller’s” plural refers to the 2WD and 4WD as separate models. A 1961 brochure used the singular Traveler and did not show the 2WD with its different styling, but a 1962 switched back to the plural Travellers.

Here’s the back:

This issue of the July 1956 four-page service and parts news introduces the Power-Lok differential upgrade, a dealer installation option.

It has the original axles, t84 trans and transfer case. From the front crossmember to the rear the frame is very solid but the original front frame horns have been heavily modified and need replacements. The motor is not original and total junk. It comes with a bill of sale. I do have a 1942 title i will throw in. I may trade for a less rare but better condition military or Cj2a project, an M151 project would definitely get my attention. 570 two38 1591.”
