If anybody sees this come in, there's a rhino chaser FSJ grille on eBay ending in just over 35min, currently at $61. It says "early 1960's" in the title and 1968 in the description, but I believe these were between those two, more like '63-65 or '64-66 -- the first two or three years of the FSJs, whatever that figures out to. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2423828028 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long, long ago, before eruptions were invented, the molten lava had to be carried down the mountainside, bucket by bucket, and poured over the sleeping villagers. This took time. - -------------- Dan Black ------------------------- dan-at-black.org -------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2003 20:00:59 -0400 From: Mike Polkki Subject: Re: fsj: rhino chaser grille on eBay (35min left!!) pretty bad when he misses on both trys lol.

They add heat to the engine compartment, noise and have to be retorqued often. The stock manifolds will serve you better... unless of course you can find an excellent quality set... but since that motor isn't exactly a common one you'll have some challenges. :) john At 07:04 PM 7/21/2003 -0700, Kurt wrote: "Kurt" <1-at-cyberpigue.com> >John, >I have a 68 Wagoneer with the 327 Vigilante motor.

If I'd known that ahead of time, I probably would've just gotten new manifolds. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. -- F.

I also have a free pair of 14" 6 lug Datsun truck rims with tires that are good for trailer or whatever (same pattern as FSJ) I used them to roll my spare axles around the yard (sold the axle to my son's friend the other day) ------------------------------ End of fsj-digest V1 #1976 **************************
