1969 Jeep Jeepster Commando C101

This is a trail rig to end all trail rigs... or for just bumping around town. It has a strong running 225 c.i. Dauntless V6 that is clean and well maintained. Has Dana 27 and Dana 44.Oil pressure is spot-on and fires right up from a cold start. This Jeepster has a TH400 Auto transmission. The auto trans was installed by a 4x4 shop which replaced the original three speed T-14. I still have the manual transmission and it comes with the Jeep, flywheel included. The clutch is still intact so you have a choice. The transmission has an aftermarket oil cooler.
The spring over axle lift was professionally done and is super stable with newer leaf springs, shackles and dual shocks all around. The new duel exhaust is from Flowmaster and sounds tough. The high quality 4bbl 470 cfm Holley Truck Avenger carburetor was professionally and fully rebuilt (looks brand new) two weeks ago and sits atop of an Offenhauser intake. The body and floors are in great shape for its age. There is one small hole through the drivers side floor and one small hole through the passenger side (see pics). There is minor spotting of rust at the bottom leading edge of the drivers door and one small rust hole through the side of the hood. The bed and tailgate are good with minimal surface. The tailgate is in great shape with a about an inch of separation from its hinge on the inside but the rest is solid and ready for paint. ALL of these are extremely easy to fix with the right tools. Any other rust is superficial and merely surface. It will clean up very easily and nicely before paint. This body, floor pan, and tailgate are collectively cleaner than most I have seen . The frame and underbody were Rinolined years ago which has kept it in amazing shape and unequivocally solid with no rust to speak of. The duel shocks on each corner are fresh (despite some surface discoloration on some). The doors are not original and are from a 70 but are in good condition. All the glass is intact and nice except for the windshield. The rubber around the doors in window slot need replaced.
I have a windshield ready to be installed at my cost at a local shop that specializes in windshield of this nature. I had the alternator tested when I replaced the battery last week and it passed, The battery is new and warrantied for 3 years. The tonneau cover is custom and you will not find many like it out there. It has a solid tow hitch with a two inch receiver. A hefty roll bar comes with the Jeep. The 33 inch BFGs are in good shape and have about 50% tread left. This Commando does need a few things i.e. wiring harness for rear lights and blinkers, front bumper, horn, and some odd and ends like glove box insert, windshield wiper blades etc. It will not take much to make it an unbeatable beautiful Jeep. I have contacts for many of these and other miscellaneous items for a Commando. 
Why go with a CJ-5 or CJ-7 like everyone else, Go Commando and you will have a unique piece of Jeep history. 


NOTE: The wheels you see here are being sandblasted and I will update photos Wednesday. They are in great shape but needed some cleaning up. New lug nuts are waiting their completion and they will be ready for you to paint any color you so choose.  

*I will help facilitate shipping this Jeep at buyers cost and can give you the name and number to a reputable transport company. I will also assist in loading it. 

Please ask all questions necessary BEFORE bidding and before the auctions end.

Do not hesitate to ask questions or request a specific picture. You can also PM for my cell and we can talk more about it prior to the auctions end. It is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early even if reserve is met.  

Thanks and good luck!

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.

2014 Jeep Cherokee dreams of Moab, crawls on stage [w/video]

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

The all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee inched its way onto the stage at the New York Auto Show today, proving that at least the "Trail Rated" version of the SUV is more than just a controversial unique odd fresh face in the mid-size segment. After the short, simulated Moab run by the Trailhawk model, the gray four-door was joined on the stage by a burgundy Limited model - the luxurious highway variant.
As a recap, the all-new 2014 Cherokee rides atop a modular Alfa Romeo-derived platform (we know it from the Dodge Dart) and will be offered in both front- and all-wheel drive models with a choice between a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (rated at 184 horsepower) and a new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 (developing 271 horsepower) engine. A nine-speed automatic is standard and no less than three different all-wheel drive systems are available.
Of the four different models (Sport, Latitude, Limited, and Trailhawk), we like the rugged looks and capabilities offered by the Trailhawk the best. Overlook the red tow hooks and check out its more aggressive wheel/tire package, flared fenders, reduced breakover angle and lack of brightwork in our gallery of live images from the New York show. Skid plates and off-road capable tires round out the package. Read all the details in the official press release below.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
