1978 Jeep Cherokee Base Sport Utility 2-door 4.2l on 2040-cars
Maple Shade, New Jersey, United States
|
Here is a classic 1978 Jeep Cherokee 4X4.This Jeep has been sitting for a few years.The previous owner stopped driving it daily after purchasing a new car.He did start it now and then but basically let it sit hoping to restore it. I was able to purchase the truck after he realized he would probably never have the time to work on it.He shared many fond memories about the Jeep as he reluctantly parted with it.I put some fresh gas in it,charged the battery and it fired right up with no smoke or noises.I drove it home about ten miles with no problems.It is equipped with the legendary 258cu.in. 6 cylinder and a 3 speed manual trans.It also has power steering,power disc brakes and Warn locking hubs,The brakes and clutch feel good.The transfer case,hubs,and four wheel drive work smoothly.The odometer shows 57,712mi.The title shows 255,400mi.I am not sure of the true mileage.The body still wears 90% of its original paint!There is obviously some significant lower body rust especially in the rear quarter panels.Much of the rear quarter rust could be covered by installing the factory type wheelwell flares.One of the tailgate hinges are broken but you can open and close the gate. The floors have rust at some of the seams and a small sheetmetal patch near the driver seat.The frame looks solid but it is scaly and crusty near the rear bumper and hitch area.The front bench seat has been replaced with buckets.The original rear seat is in great condition.The headliner is falling and the carpets are shot.The dash and components are in decent shape.This is a project truck that needs restoring!It would need a good going over before driving any serious distance.The belts,hoses,tires should be replaced due to age.The lights,signals,heater,defroster,wipers,guages,and even the power tailgate window all work! I have the original owners manual and a service book. This is a project truck being sold as is with a clear NJ title.

2015 Jeep Renegade brings the cute
Tue, 04 Mar 2014The jig is up, the noose is out, we finally found it: the Renegade that Jeep has made, retrieved for a bounty.
Okay, enough of that. Meet the Renegade - Jeep's cute little compact crossover that makes its official debut here at the Geneva Motor Show. We recently brought you a massive Deep Dive into what makes the Renegade tick, and we're now getting our first live look at the tiny Jeep, live from its coming out party in Switzerland.
With the exception of associate editor Jonathon Ramsey, who doesn't know what he's talking about, we at Autoblog are kind of smitten with the little Jeep - it's a really unique package, featuring details that really make it kind of special (notice that jerry can pattern in the taillights, for example). Jeep will offer the Renegade with either a 1.4-liter turbo-four (from the Fiat 500L) or a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated four (from the Dodge Dart), with either a six-speed manual transmission or a nine-speed automatic. There will even be a Trailhawk version with four-wheel drive - properly trail-rated, to boot. The Renegade also features a nifty new My Sky removable roof panel system, giving this little cutie sort of a baby Wrangler feel.
Chrysler adding 200 jobs at Ohio Jeep Wrangler plant
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Chrysler is betting that the Jeep Wrangler will continue its strong sales surge as it continues to push the legendary brand out across the globe. The Auburn Hills automaker is reportedly adding 200 workers at the Toledo, Ohio plant that builds the Wrangler. What's more, those new hires will be at their posts quickly - they'll be on the job by April 1. Of those 200 workers, 130 employees will be there to relieve those who need breaks.
Why do they need so many relief workers? The Toledo Jeep Complex is currently working at a torrid pace with two ten-hour shifts. A third shift has been ruled out for the moment because of a production botttleneck - the plant's paint shop is already maxed out. According to Reuters, Wrangler production in 2012 cleared 200,000 units, and US sales were up by 16 percent.
Another part of the Toledo plant is presently down as Chrysler retools the line to build Jeep's divisively styled Liberty replacement, the Cherokee (seen in our gallery below). Production for the new model is scheduled to begin toward the end of May.
Jeep Renegade pricing to start at $18,595?
Fri, 14 Mar 2014While there's no shortage of excitement surrounding the new Jeep Renegade, one of the limiting factors to the little trucklet will be its price. With the Kia Soul starting at $14,900 and the Nissan Juke kicking off at $18,990, the Renegade can't afford to stray away from that price bracket.
And judging by some potentially leaked pricing info, it won't. A quick Google search of "Jeep Renegade Price" reveals (at least for now) that the Italian-built Jeep will start at $18,595. The "as shown" price of $25,895 seems to indicate the Trailhawk model shown on Jeep's consumer page.
If the $18,595 figure is correct, it's likely for the base, two-wheel-drive Sport model, with the Latitude and Limited trims falling somewhere between there and the $25,895 as-equipped price of the Trailhawk.
