restoration under way

 

[vintagebike]

All mine have had 223 Ford 6. What is in yours? Maybe it’s the kitty version Command Car.

This one has the Willys F4-134 Hurricane motor with t 96 trans

Looks like according to my manual yours with the 4 cyl was the last. Serial numbers 5-14 used the Ford 6. I only have info for these. There is searchable info on the Forums about the Frandee-Trackmaster-Thiokol evolution.

Do you have a photo of the ID tag? I have a cat very similar to this but I do not know what model it is but it looks very similar to the one you are restoring.

#4 has the gas tank in front in the cowl. Where is it on yours, #3?

But it is looking real good. You are moving right along.

More progress

Put some of the suspension together lot easier than taken it a part

We’re the early ones red? Mine have all been faded safety orange.

Wow, amazing project! That is going to be one sweet cat when you're done with it. Makes me wish I could do the same to my 601.
