Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
For sale is this super awesome Black on Black 1974 CJ5 Renegade. This is a RARE Black paint with Black stripe Renegade. I have never seen a black with black stripe CJ. The stripes look white in pictures because they are faded. I have tried to find pics of a black with black stripe renegade and cannot find any. I would love to see an original AMC pic of one. If you have one please send to me. This Also has owner Made chrome front bumper and rear bumperettes. Had Chrome mirrors, wheels and headers back in the day..... Man she was a looker! and POWERFULL! This original CJ has a factory v8 304 with a 3 speed and heavy duty Renegade springs. The previous owner parked it in 1983 right after he had a new clutch put in and trans rebuilt. The clutch linkage fell out and that is where he left it for 31 years!!! I pulled it right from that spot. I put all new clutch linkage, radiator, alternator, water pump, starter, battery, battery cables, shackles, bushings, rancho shocks, fender flares, steering wheel, master cylinder for brakes, rebuilt brakes as needed, rebuilt the 4BBL carter carb. It also has a rare Edelbrock SP2-P intake. New sidepipes, seats, seat slider (drivers) and water temp and oil pressure gauge. I installed a new gas tank and all fuel lines and new fuel pump. I also found the correct 5 slot wheels and put 32x11.50x15 BFG All Terrains on it. There is no spare tire carrier, I have been looking for the correct one. (If you are reading this and have the correct one you would like to sell, please contact me. It has to have the kickout for the upper reinforcement channel at top of back panel). There is also a older but very good shape Kayline soft top included in the deal and the original and VERY rare dash pad. This jeep has all the correct emblems, the original Jeep key, and extra custom made under seat gas tank. This tank will need to be hooked back up, there is a front/rear gas tank valve on driver floor that is frozen. The original gas tank skid plate is also included, but is rusted. She has all original lenses, lights, uncut dash and aftermarket old school roll cage. The body has original paint and stripes. There is NO rust through on floors, Only small pitting. There is bubbling on passenger side under door (look at pic) and next to taillights (look at pic). This jeep is as original unrestored as I could keep it and still make it drivable. The previous owner said he had "some high performance motor work done to it" he could not remember or tell me what..... but SHE MOVES!!! very strong and always brings a grin to your face. The sound of the side pipes and the hurst handle, sooooo cool. If you love CJ's and into Patina and love to set off car alarms when you drive by..... THIS IS YOUR CJ! Obviously I can't say enough about this CJ. Only in AZ do you get that perfect Patina with out being rusted out. Drives like a 74 CJ should. Stops like it has 4 wheel drum brakes, and has more power than a short wheelbase CJ should. I have invested quite a bit of time and money into bringing her back to life. This is NOT a Jeep for a 16 year old driver. I have had more than a few Dads want to buy my jeeps for their 16 year old kids. This IS NOT ONE OF THEM. IF you have driven a early CJ you know what I mean. I restore Jeep for a living and have sold all over the US and overseas. This Jeep has a Clean and clear Arizona "A" title. It is even the small OLD 1978 title that is still in the second owners name (it is open and ready for your name) Shipping is up to the buyer. Please quote from 85027. I will deliver the Jeep to any automotive carrier in the Phoenix valley at no charge to the buyer. I require a 250.00 Non refundable deposit with in 24hrs of the end of auction. I will accept Pay-Pal for this part only. The remainder of the amount due is to be paid by Cashiers Check, Bank Check or (the easiest way) Wire transfer. I keep a account open at Wells Fargo just for this purpose. It is painless and easy. As soon as the money clears I will Fed Ex the title to you and we can set up delivery of your CJ. It is also available for pickup if you desire. This is a AMAZING early gen Renegade. Perfect for the collector or jeep lover. I really hate to sell her but.....that's what I do. I REALLY wish I could keep this one for me, but I cannot, so she goes to the next Jeep nut. If you have any questions feel free to contact me 602.763.3505 DREW please view my web site. www.thejeepfarm.com I should have some updated pics on my site soon. (my web guy is on vacation) there is some pics of the "as found" condition, and Dennis the gentlemen I purchased it from (great guy) |

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
eBay Find of the Day: 1977 Jeep J20 time capsule
Tue, 08 Jan 2013Is it just us or has eBay really become, of late, a surprising time capsule of older, barely used automobiles? We've had the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT with 83 miles, the 2004 Ferrari Enzo with 175 miles, the 1987 Shelby Lancer with 22 miles, the 1989 Shelby Dakota with 23 miles - none of those four cars ever even registered - and the 1975 Cosworth Vega with 191 miles. You can add to that list a 1977 Jeep J20 - the kind of Jeep that enthusiasts point to when they beg the brand to make another pickup truck.
Listed on eBay by Masterpiece Classic Cars in Whiteland, Indiana, the Brandywine and Alpine White truck has used its 360-cubic-inch V8 paired with a three-speed automatic to go just 3,940 documented miles. Not surprisingly, it's listed in excellent condition and the images appear to bear that out. The three-quarter-ton pickup comes with its original manual and pamphlets, the Quadra-Track four-wheel drive probably just as ready to tackle the terrain as it was 36 years ago. If only it came with some John Denver to play in that AM/FM/8-Track stereo...
At the time of writing it hasn't garnered a single offer or bid, probably due to the above-top-dollar Buy It Now price of $34,900. Still, since this is likely the closest you'll get to a Jeep pickup for some time, we'd recommend admiring it in the gallery of photos above.
Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
