This vehicle is in N.E. Oklahoma (zip 74330) - Tag expired since MARCH 2009
This vehicle starts, runs smoothly and stops. Engine runs very smooth and powerful, not blowing smoke clouds. The 4 wheel drive system is in working condition and drive train is intact and most likely all original. The floor boards are not rusted out or rusted through... they are solid.
I do not know what is, or isn't, original concerning the top or the doors??? You will need to make those determinations if they are a factor in your bidding. I have every reason to believe that the full engine, drive-train and rolling gear are all original but again... you will need to make that determination. Lights work, horn works, whole thing works and is a blast to "putt" around in. It has a keyed ignition switch and push button starter. Brakes work.
This is a 50+ year old vehicle in used condition and will inevitably have needs along the way. I believe it is a military vehicle - vs - civilian vehicle. The gas tank is original and is in perfect condition with no foreign matter, rust, trash or sludge in it. The inside of the tank looks clean enough to serve hamburgers off of it. All tires have decent and near equal tread and wear. The odometer mileage is what is stated but is no way an indication of actual mileage on vehicle. It was listed "as is" on the odometer as Ebay demands in these listings.
I have installed an aftermarket electric fuel pump because the factory pump diaphragm failed. The factory fuel pump is still bolted to the engine and has just been routed around it. New battery, 12-volt converted system. This thing is fun to drive and it starts and runs solid at the touch of the ignition. There is minor leakage here and there from various gaskets at transmission/transfer case area although they seem to run out just fine. Locking hubs appear to be original to the vehicle.
The only real problem I am aware of with this vehicle is the turn signals need some troubleshooting to make work correctly.
I am a Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser expert and not a CJ Jeep expert. I will try to answer any questions about the vehicle, but may not be as savvy as a regular Jeep guy would be. Thanks for looking at my item, and happy bidding. This is a cool Jeep anyone would be pleased to own and drive and it seems dependable enough that it should last still a long time.

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment
Mon, 07 Jan 2013When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
Jeep follows up Super Bowl spot with call to help the USO
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Once again, Chrysler had one of the most talked about Super Bowl commercials with its two-minute Whole Again Jeep spot, which was used to highlight its Operation SAFE Return program for US military personnel returning home from active duty. As part of this campaign, Jeep announced today that it will be donating up to $300,000 to the United Services Organizations (USO), and you can help.
Simply tweet using the #joinOSR hashtag on Twitter, visit the Yahoo! homepage or go to the Jeep Operation SAFE Return website, and Jeep will donate $1 to a fund that provides returning troops things like employment assistance and incentives to buy new vehicles. Jeep is also donating to this charity to the tune of $250 for each Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited (including the Freedom Edition model) and Jeep Patriot Freedom Edition model sold.
Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh
Thu, 28 Feb 2013We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.
