Our videos ended up the exact same length 😂

I still remember my first Jeep. It was an Ex-British Army WW2 Austin Champ, with the Rolls Royce 2.838 cc engine. The best feature for me was the 3 gear leavers. One for High and Low ratios, one for the 5 speed manual gear-box/transmission, and one for Forward and Reverse. So you could go through the 5 gears forward too get to the top speed of 64.6 mph/104 kph Manufacturers stated top speed, (I know mine did 80 mph. OK, it was down hill with the wind behind me, but I did it), or you could put it in revers gear, and go through the 5 speed manual gear box/transmission up to 65 mph backwards. Great fun, and it's one of those vehicles you wish you still had.

Wow, that looks like the same jeep i put a motor in when I worked in Bend at a machine shop on the north end of townin 1992 or 1993, but the engine was Chrysler blue at the time, Grea tvideo, Thumbs up, Hello Casey

Brought back memories my first experience was a friend’s dad bought a mid 60s cj5 with V6 power in 1972 we drove it more than his dad

I was wondering when Iron King and Casey LaDelle do a collaborate content, boom here it is.

Great find. That Jeep is awesome.

I cant wait to see that jeep rebuilt, that's going to be awesome.. Keep us informed brother :)

Quinton this video was a lot of fun. I have watched Casey's and now yours the commentary you three act like brothers more then friends. Seeing the behind the scenes on Casey's video was comical.

Nice drive, lol! Probably should have introduced your support crew, tho most of us already know... Nice find, should be very kool rig with a light rebuild. Should provide many years of fun, & content, lol! Thanx !

Cannot tell you the joy this video brings. I tore down my CJ5 to the frame 2 years ago and some days I am not sure it will ever run again. However, knowing you can pick one up out of a field and drive it helps me remember that it will rise again!

I am about to take my CJ5 on a 600 mile trip. Same 3 speed with a small Rough Country lift. Have me pumped seeing this beforehand.

I love your Jeep! Even with everything falling apart. LOL!

I like the pause between "absolute" and "adventure" at 7:15🙂 Also, you're lucky the officer didn't decide to do a road side safety check on you (or he was afraid to after seeing the condition of your rig)

Well, you could call it mustard or French's. Tennessee for Tuxedo. Always remember that line Standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona would not have happened if Jackson Browne's Jeep hadn't broke down.

I like your videos! You have a positive attitude and it shows. Keep doing these "finds"; love your rebuild videos too. :)

Wow, my wife just sent me the craigslist ad to this jeep the other day. Haha!

Glad you made it. Thanks for the video

looks like a great project!

Great video new sub will follow this build or revival whatever you will call it 👍

Nice Jeep ,Got to call it the Yellow Peril 😂 .

I bought a '65 with 6200 mi. for $500 With a cab and snow plow. New seals throughout, rings , bearings and gaskets and fluids,drove it for years.

Those central Oregon hills in the summer are no joke. I had my mostly reliable car climbing out of one of those valleys, blowing AC, showing normal temp levels and then a plastic expansion tank exploded and I lost all the coolant. Anyway, that's what adventures are made of is the crazy times and the good stories.

I saw the adventure on Casies channel . A fine adventure

Kool road trip! with Budz that give are there to laugh at you...

Very cool adventure!!!

Haha glad you guys made it. I never planned on driving it on the road until i got the power steering done and fixed a lot of things. It was just used for hunting and wheeling mainly the last few years. I didnt have much money back when i got it in 2016 so i went the cheap route on getting it drivable. Then never went back and fixed it right. It worked so didnt have the motovation.

So are you going to slam a 3208 cat in that 1966 jeep? 😊

Hey brother,, your making lemonade,,lol… She’ll be a beauty when you’re done with it…

You are going to have a great little buggy once you get it all fixed up! I followed you from Casey. Can't wait to see her in all her beauty as you fix 'er up❤

Hi! I'm over from Casey's channel!! Does Matt know you have a YELLOW jeep? 👀 #MORR

Great jeep

Saw you on Casey's channel and thought I would come over and give you a hard time 😀

those old ones are so cool. That radiator should only be filled to just above the core, the rest is for expansion. It's like my old tractor.

Having watched Casey's video first, I salute you, Sir, for your optimistic initial review of the CJ's condition...🤣

You can more than likely call C&C Surplus in Nashville In and get parts for your Jeep

Loved your trip up Highway and the turn at Service Creek. Didn’t want to use the Waterman Road? Gonna enjoy the work on it

wow an antique gas pump lol

Interesting Jeep. Saw this in CL. Body is an early 70's vintage based on the gas tank filler location and the panel over where the filler was located for tank when it was under the driver's seat in the 60's and earlier Cj-5s. Hard to say about the vintage of the frame. Yes, those frames were brittle and prone to cracking. Hard to believe they went to all that work to lower the stock steering when they did the SOA conversion. Would have been easier and a better outcome to have swapped in a saginaw steering box. Nice jeep - love the 225 V-6. I had a 69. Please keep the V-6! They have plenty of power for a light Cj-5 and get pretty good fuel economy when they're tuned and running right. I used to get 20 mpg cruising down the highway at 60. Not only did you have the transfer case in 4 high but you probably didn't have the overdrive in high. Otherwise you could have pulled the Ochoco grade doing 55 with no problems. Good luck with your new jeep!

“Impeding Traffic” - I hope you’re proud of yourself.

Just watched Casey LaDelle's video on this find! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jc-Hi5RezZOwqWg.html The thing I was always wanting in a CJ was an all-metal top and doors. The soft stuff and open top never made much sense to my application, which was SAR work. With the all-metal you get a good ground plane for radio antennas.With solid doors your gear is much more secure when the Jeep CJ had to be parked at the end of a 4x4 trail as you went backpacking in to do a wilderness rescue. Now add in the basic and easy to maintain 4x4 drive train and you really had a great thing going for you! That yellow CJ is a terrific find, whatever the price. A little sweat equity will give you a wonderful backcountry machine for years to come!

You should have name dropped Casey to boost your views. 😅🤣

Those "odd fire" V6's have really ready bad habit of spinning #3 & #4 rod bearings.....ask me how I know

what is the difference between even and odd fire?

That jeep looks awfull familiar. Sure looks like my grandpas old jeep.

What are your plans whit this one?

Wait a minute. Spaces for side marker lights, no tank under the drivers seat, no side fill. Tuxedo Park without a column shift? This is more of a Frankenjeep than a true 66.

NOW we need to see what you are going to do with that thing ... Got on Caterpillar parts in it so can't fix it up to redell !!!

YESSS!!

Great video guys! Love the Willy's...I hope you have many years of enjoyment with it.

Nice video! How about Magnolia as a name for the Jeep?

I want to know more about that rock buggy parked next to the OBS!

Would of been fitting water gator aid helmet

I’ve got a spare front grill for that model year

Great adventure with great friends

66 with side marker lights??

transfer case shifter is in 4 hi

What did you pay for it ?.

Why not use the overdrive?

do you want a set of doors

you have no fan shroud, that decreases airflow min 50%

Just put a trigle on the back and farm tags

Casey might recognize me for my pestering him to get a plow for one of his trucks,,, now I can pester you instead,, to do the same with this one… along with tracks brother,,, tell me what you think?…

What are you going to do with it? Drive it, restore it, put 60s under it?

Also, not a Willys. That's fully a Kaiser Jeep

...or "Lemon Drop".

"Lemon Peel"

I'd fight that one in court, I'd get all the farm tractor around and drive them up and down that road, top on that jeep is about 50mph, if it's got 5:38 gears

15:20 European here, can someone explain the pilot car to me? Why would you need an escort vehicle there?

How dare you slow down a cop when he's trying to 90mph over the mountain.

tweety

Not a 66 tub or fenders

You’ve got a lot of little and BIG PROBLEMS to fix. First time I’ve every had 3 people with video cameras doing one trip.

Scared of the steering.

Haha its Hilomar 101sealant. Its actually really good stuff.

Piss everyone off and put a fram back on it I have run fram filters for 30 years and never had a problem
