Yes I bought it to save it. Working on carb then air roto chamber leak. Then a good greasing and lube

Are there any leads on a zenith reasonably priced?

I definitely need the Tms. This thing hasn’t seen a wrench or grease in 40 years.

Oh yes pulled plugs and black soot so way over rich. It’s got a Holley on it so I’ve got to play with the adjustments

Fixed that front winch cable too but I see the cable was broken because the locking plate on the lever was out of adjustment

Got her going off a boat fuel tank. Man does it use gas! Took 3 gallons just idling 10 minutes. New brake lines and hoses, new fuel pump, new radiator hoses. The dirt Dobbers causes a lot of confusion why the new pump wouldn’t suck fuel but got that figured out. Carb is way too rich but...

Well the rotochamber leaks. Any one ever rebuild one? I see diaphragms but no instructions or verification of fitment?

It actually has a double barrel modern Holley with a homemade adapter. I found a pump on a modern fleabay site. It it doesn’t work I’ll try them thanks.

Got her running off an aux gas tank. Brakes need new lines and bad fuel pump also rusted fuel tank. Slowing getting there

Ah yes you are right it’s a 931a1. I do have the a2 winch chassis with everything but cab and bed. Was saving that for a rainy year project. Has 8.3 on the spare chassis with winch

Well I figured the winches are worth some money

Yes our weather is not as nice as California. Guy says he had it running few years ago but no brakes.

Well got to look at it closer today. Turns out it’s a m62 from 1954.
