All right, Hi my name is Kevin Johnson I'm from Boise, Idaho. We're here in American Falls doing the Idaho Vintage Jeep Rally. This is my '52 CJ3A. It's got a dauntless V6 in it, T18 transmission, dana 44 rear. So we have the dana 25 front, but we've got lockers in it. Fun little rig, nice little mountain trail Jeep. So just out here enjoying the- enjoying the fun time.
Yeah what do you think about the Epic vehicles?
Oh the Epic vehicles are awesome, right. Love how they're all kind of together and just doing their thing and having a good time.
Heck yeah it's been a good time! You want to show me the engine here?
Sure! Let's check this out, got a dauntless in a 3A. Oh that looks good in there too!
So yeah the engine actually came out of a sprint car, the guy- they changed the regulations so he didn't need this engine anymore so I ended up picking it up. And it runs great everyone's really good with this little Jeep, so that's a fun ride.
How fast does it run like this? How fast is the run with this motor?
It goes pretty good! We were just- we were coming down the highway here and I told my son I said let's see how fast it goes. We put the pedal down and it, you know, just 60 miles an hour and it was it was still pulling so... wow! It's a good little runner.
It looks good, it's nice that it fits right in there too.
Yeah it doesn't cut out of the hood or anything that's really good yep.
Oh I like the black.
Oh yeah we had to cut the trans tunnel out to fit the bigger truck four speed and kind of fabbed a little cover up for it. But uh take my son, my wife, and my daughter and it was our little mountain play rig so everyone everyone loves it!
All right, there's Kevin! There's his 3A!
