    If it's running its probably worth more assembled.
    Otherwise you may be able sell of the small parts via mail.

    So 1 vote for complete.

    I agree with Oldtime so two votes. If people can hear it run they will typically pay much more. Otherwise it's a core.

    Make it four. I have a non-runner on an engine stand and I cannot give it away.

    Yup - running is worth more - otherwise its core value to me as well.

    Hey all , got another question.

    I have a willys/junkyard/used parts, place, That is interested in the motor and is willing to barter .

    So the question is what is its trade value?

    He has lots of dana 18 stuff, and is willing to trade ,

    Should I try for at least 2 dana 18? or is the motor only worth one in trade?

    And lets say he allows me a dana 18 and a few other things, in trade,...........Is there anything hard to find that ANY OF you are looking for?

    Or anything you want me to look for while I am there? he has crates of willys parts.

    He has a few newer model jeep stuff, but 98% is like 1969 and older.

    SO let me know I am going this weekend to check it out, but he is real close, so I can be bop over there anytime.
