Dauntless v6 question - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I looked on ebay to get a feel for it but there is not a whole lot on there. This could be good or bad.

Are they worth anything? Are the parts worth anything?
I've got one that was swapped into a m38a1 and I am looking to part it out. The engine that is. The Jeep is long gone.

Thanks, Chad

They're worth something to guys who are restoring CJ-5s or C-101 Commandos. It ain't called an "odd-fire" for nothing.

Damned shame that the M38A1 is gone though.

How much you looking to get for it? I'm not that far from you and I have a buddy who has one in his Comando. If you want I can pass along the info to him etc....

I parted the jeep a few years ago and thought that the v6 was just some bastard swap the previous rednec.....uh...owner swaped into it. I just recently discovered it was a 225 buick motor that came stock in some jeeps.

I don't know what it is worth, nor do I know it's condition yet (I will after this weekend though). It has been out side for a few years. I'll probably pull the heads and the pan to see if it is any good. Someone shoot me some suggestions on the value and we'll go from there. I have no use for it.
