I have a beautiful red with black interior, 1977 Jeep CJ 5 for sale. Her name is Ruby.

The good:
-AMC 304 V8
- 4 speed with a new clutch in the last year
-33" tires with over 50% tread (33-12.5-15")
- Fiberglass body- exterior has been coated with red Herculiner (truck bed liner to prevent scratches) and interior has been coated with black Herculiner- it's a cool look!
- Brand new black soft top with original hardware
- New in the last year: skyjacker steering stabilizer, clutch, radiator, hoses, ignition system, brake system, eldelbrok intake, summit racing carb, and u-joints

The bad: 
- The exhaust manifold bolts are broken- so it sounds pretty loud (I personally love the sound!)
- Headlights need new wiring- the running lights work, but not the headlights
- The dash, radio, and gauges need work
- It leaks oil while idling
- Steering still wanders at higher speeds (it is much better with the steering stabilizer. also the stabilizer we bought is a dual, but will take some tweaking to get the second to fit well.)
- Needs front seat belts installed
- May need a new battery (she doesn't get driven enough to keep a charge)

I hate to get rid of Ruby, as she is truly my baby, but I'm choosing to pursue other adventures instead. 


It is for sale locally as well.

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.

Freak accident during Jeep demonstration turns fatal

Mon, 20 May 2013

A 20-year-old woman was killed in Edmonton, Canada on Satuday, reports CTV News, in a freak accident resulting from a rollover during a Jeep demonstration. As part of a fundraising enthusiast event called "Jeeps Go Topless," the driver of one Jeep Wrangler drove up and onto the top of the tire of another.
CTV reports that the owner of the topmost Jeep then switched the vehicle off, posed for pictures and then dismounted from his vehicle. His movement off of the Jeep apparently caused it to tip over, crushing a woman who was on top of an adjacent vehicle. Edmonton police are currently investigating more fully what caused the parking lot accident to occur. Scroll below to watch the CTV News video report about this tragic incident.
