Birmingham, Alabama, United States

  You are viewing a super solid and all original1981 CJ-5 Renegade. This Jeep was purchased new at Tupelo Datsun/American Motors in Tupelo, Mississippi. The original MSRP was $9479.00. Optional equipment is as follows, Renegade package, 258 6 cylinder engine, rear traction lock differential, power steering, power front disc brakes, tilt steering wheel, blue denim soft top, and draw bar with hitch. This CJ still wears its original Olympic white paint, Renegade stripes/decals, and blue denim Whitco soft top!  It truly is an unbelievable survivor that has been untouched by its only two owners. The body is rock solid with no rust repair ever. It is laser straight too with no dents anywhere! The paint is 33 years old but still looks amazing! It is very obvious that this Jeep has been garaged and pampered its entire life! Even the original Whitco soft top looks great! There is absolutely no evidence of previous accident damage, rust repair, patch panels, bonds, etc. this Jeep really is beautiful. You could search for years and years and still not find a CJ that is this original and clean!
   Mechanically, this Jeep is super sound. It has just 99K miles from new but could pass for a Jeep with half the miles. It starts up easily and runs absolutely perfect. The motor sounds super smooth and does not run hot, knock, tick, etc. it pulls strong through the gears and is a pleasure to drive. The T 176 4 speed transmission shifts perfectly and the 4WD works as it should. The alternator, starter, solenoid, battery cables, etc. are new. I have a receipt for the tires when they were purchased by the original owner back in 1990! They now have about 23K miles on them and are still in good shape. Absolutely everything works on this Jeep including the lights, gauges, turn signals, wipers,horn, heater, blower motor, etc. The Jeep drives down the road nice and straight and is super quiet too. Again, this is as nice of an unrestored time capsule CJ-5 as you will ever find for my reserve price. I have the original owners manual, books, window sticker, service records, bikini top, top parade boot, jack, etc. If you have been searching for a beautiful unmolested Jeep then you've found it. Now is your chance to own this appreciating classic. 
   Many of my auctions end with just a phone call. I can arrange shipping worldwide. 205-276-1918.

Jeep Wrangler Dragon Edition coming to North America

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

If 2012 was the year of the dragon in China, perhaps the US can claim 2014. After showing the Jeep Wrangler Dragon Design Concept at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, and apparently receiving "tremendously positive feedback" from Jeep enthusiasts across the globe, the automaker has decided to introduce a production version that will hit US showrooms this fall with a price of $36,095.
"The dragon symbolizes strength and power and is an aspirational character normally associated with royalty and good fortune," says Jeep, and that apparently equates to a blacked-out Wrangler Unlimited with bronze satin gloss highlights inside and out, along with big dragon decals that start on the hood and run down the fenders. There are 18-inch matte black wheels with a bronze outer edges, and a dragon-emblazoned spare tire cover completes the look.
We suggest you peruse the high-res image gallery above to see all the black and bronze detailing yourself, and make special note of the interior. In related news, all 2014 Jeep Wrangler models get an optional Trail Kit and clear park lamps to replace the previous amber units. New colors include Amp'd, Anvil, Copperhead, Flame Red, Granite Crystal and Hydro Blue (Freedom edition only), which join carryover colors Billet Silver, Bright White, Black and Dune.

Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.

Watch this R/C Jeep Wrangler plow snow

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

There's no denying the fact that the Jeep Wrangler is one tough and rugged vehicle, and there is apparently little lost when the SUV is shrunk down for a 1:10th scale radio-controlled version. Proving that the Axial SCX10 Jeep Wrangler is not your run-of-the-mill R/C car, YouTube user Andrew Dykiel posted a pair of videos showing it clear about an inch of snow from his sidewalk and driveway during a snow storm last month.
Starting at $379.99, the Axial SCX10 costs more than most budget snowblowers, but other than paying a neighbor kid to shovel your snow, this might be the best way for a car guy to clear snow without the need for hot chocolate and ibuprofen. Better yet, it's electric, so it's zero-emission answer to snow removal! Scroll down to see how this R/C Jeep can help "shovel" snow from the warmth of your sofa. We've also thrown in a bonus video showing the mini Jeep negotiating the Rubicon Trail.
