This is a 1963 Willys CJ 5. It also may be a Military Jeep M38-A1. It has the 24 volt battery cover on the cowl but other items like the headlight bezels and the glove box may mean it was not Military. At any rate it does have a strong running 4-134 F Head Motor. It has the Warn overdrive and a two speed Dana 18 transfer case. The Jeep has been converted to 12 volt. The engine starts and the Jeep is drivable except for the brakes. The brakes have lost all pressure and I believe it has a bad wheel cylinder on the front passenger side. I expect that it would be a easy repair. I have not taken the wheel off to check. I purchased the Jeep to restore it but I may not ever get to it. In the photos you can see that the air cleaner is missing. I have purchased an old original oil bath for it off e-bay but it has not arrived yet. The floor looks to have been replaced a some point. There is some rust on each side and a wrinkled area behind the passenger front fender and on the drivers right fender. The jeep is basically all there and is restorable. I do not think it would take much to make it road worthy. I drove it up and down the street today and checked all the gears and transfer case and all seemed ok. Even the overdrive works. The turn signals work and the head lights. There is only one motor for the wipers on the drivers side and it works. It comes with the supports for the soft top. The top that was on it when I got it was trashed. I do have some soft doors that go with it that are not bad. I have tried to take some good photos but if you have any questions let me know. Please arrange for your own shipping. 801-259-1194 Thanks Tom

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.
Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep
Tue, 17 Dec 2013In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
Chrysler recalling nearly 141k vehicles over electrical woes
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Software glitches that randomly illuminate warning lights and cause instrument cluster blackouts are forcing Chrysler to recall 140,800 vehicles, The Detroit News reports. The automaker is recalling 132,000 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokees, 91,559 of which are in the US. In addition to the Jeep recalls, Chrysler is adding 10,800 2014 Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 trucks to the list for similar problems.
Chrysler reportedly says, "Both events occurred infrequently and appeared to resolve themselves by tuning the vehicle's ignition off and then on."
Engineers discovered a problem with the anti-lock-braking system software that causes the instrument cluster display of the Grand Cherokee to illuminate warning lights and black out - even its ABS and electronic stability control systems are affected. To fix the Jeeps, Chrysler will update the vehicle's software.
