    So I went and picked up another old warrior today--got it home and started a good once over.

    Imagine my surprise when I looked and saw a Kaiser of Canada tag under the Jeep tag--I had no idea they made them there until today!!

    The best I can tell it had a fHead 4 (that's the only thing missing besides the seats)
    And it's a 67--I believe as the the vin is 8305 c14 230xxx. The trans also has a build casting of 67 on it.

    So how rare are they?? My intention when I saw the ad was to transplant a dauntless drivetrain out of a good running 67 you can throw a cat thru in many places (very rusty) into it.

    But if it's rare I do have a rebuilt fHead on a pallet.

    Not that rare/special IMHO. There's a few others on here.

    That's one of those deals where the cool factor is there of course, but just being an old Kaiser Jeep is where the cool factor really is. If it was mine I would put the F-head in it just to keep it original. That would up the cool factor by a bunch too.

    Thanks for the replies!!! I wasn't aware the Canadian CJ-5s had an extra tag. If you locate that tag I'd like to see it.
