CJ-3B Heading West on I-84

While returning from our short camping trip, we spotted this 3B motoring down I-84 at 60MPH heading from Pendleton to Echo, Oregon. It was perfect weather for a jeep drive.

He was doing about 60. I was doing 65 when I passed him.

JEEP STER: I had a 3B and I pushed the factory F134 engine to go 65mph! Hardtop, duallies, easily another 500+ lbs on top and I was still able to go about 60mph barely...

Hi. I'm Chase the guy that was driving that day I was coming back from a Boise trip to Portland. 400miles and back including throughout the Boise National Forest. I was doing 60 on the flat rounds but mostly was going 55. It's a 1962 3B with stock f-134 she on a cj5 frame (3" more leg room) siting on 7.50-16 tires. I did a frame up restoration tuk 3 years.

Hi Chase, That's awesome! Nice you found the post. It looked like it was running smoothly and straight down the freeway. Great work! - Dave
