But, Dear...It Followed Me Home

[Ralph Fuller]

But, Dear...it followed me home....that's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.
1967 M151-A1, un-cut, Full vinyl top, runs and doesn't require the choke to start. Aftermarket roll bar.

Congratulations Ralph. I'm sure we're all excited to see the restoration process

Do you still have the other two Ralph? Also, is the new one a canadian mutt? I noticed the grille screen like the canadian mutts had....

The MUTT was bought in Georgia for $3K by a buddy. He trailer it to a body shop where it sat untouched for a couple of months. I made him an offer he couldn't refuse...$5K.
I now have just the two Jeeps.

I like it Ralph! Will you be keeping the roll bar or removing it?

Ralph, Are you sure on the date? The breadbox regulator is definitely much older, I don't see turn signals but maybe see the mounts?? No vacuum pump, is that a block off plate? The fuel line has me confused. I see it coming out in the right location on the drivers side but what is the big line running over the front of the valve cover?

My wife, a farm gal, learned to drive a stick-shift on a Jeep her father had. My 9 year old granddaughter will be driving the Jeep this summer.

Rick: The black, rubber tube over the valve cover runs from the air-cleaner to the distributor. This is a hard line on my other Jeep. Block off plate where the vacuum pump should go.

Hey Ralph,
I'm seeing some early things too. Was the passenger B/O light light removed already or are the first few pictures reversed? Take a look at the rubber bumpers up underneath and give us a count. I like it but have my fingers crossed it's an "early"

Also has the early hood and windshield.
The trailer in the second picture, Is that yours? If so what brand is it? Looks exactly like mine right down to the anemic welds on the fenders.

c'mon Ralph, you are the man with the golden camera. More pictures!! You know the details we are looking for.

congrats, ralph--tell the mrs that at least 5 of us saw it follow you home, and she surely knows we wouldn't LIE, right?

[homerguy]

Good on you! Your lucky to have a supportive boss,er wife. Looks like your building the fleet,are those your trucks? The mutt body looks great for a georgia jeep. Did it come from the Ft.?
