1982 Jeep Cj5 Renegade 304 V8 on 2040-cars
Jeffersonville, Vermont, United States
|
Up for sale is a 1982 jeep CJ5 renegade. This jeep was purchased in 2002 with the majority of the work being redone between 2002 and 2011. It has a fiberglass body, metal fenders and metal hood. The jeep originally came with a 1974 304 V8. The 304 is really peppy and the top end has been redone by a professional mechanic. At the time of purchase, the seller told me the V8 motor had approximately 25, 000 miles. Since that time, I have put on approximately 10,000 highway miles. This jeep has never been off-road in order to save a very impressive paint job, and has been undercoated to protect the underside and frame. The paint is saffhire blue with 3 coats clear. Has headman headers and side exhaust coming out before the rear wheels. All interior gauges work, including the tachometer and clock. Sidelights w/blinkers also work. The gas gauge reads lower than it should, but a new sending unit comes with the jeep if you choose to replace it. The seats are ultra comfortable. No rear seat. The transmission shifts smoothly and the 4 wheel transfer case works great. This jeep comes with a rare T-18 4 speed with the first gear (granny gear) transmission which is super for steep inclines without touching the gas. It just goes and goes at about 2 mph. The jeep comes with practically new 33 x 12.50 x 15 cooper tires with only 3,000 miles. The chrome rims are beginning to see some rust scaling mainly from condensation by sitting in the winter. The vehicle was only driven in the summer and never driven in the snow and never plowed. The top is rated as fair. It does the job but if you want perfection, a new top should be purchased. Jeep also comes with a bikini top which is new. This jeep burns no oil, starts up at the turn of the key, and there are no oil leaks. Brakes are great. The jeep is a real head-turner, with a beautiful paint job, renegade stripes, and deep throat exhaust. Unfortunately, I have no room to store this wonderful jeep, and reluctantly need to sell. This vehicle is also being listed locally, and the auction will be closed if it sells. A deposit of US $1000.00 within 48 hours of auction is required. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer unless the buyer is close enough to pick the vehicle up. I've owned it for 12 years, and it's time to reluctantly let it go. Thanks for looking at this beautiful jeep. |

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Chrysler expecting up to 200,000 9-speed transmissions for 3 models this year
Tue, 22 Jan 2013Striving for improved fuel economy, we already knew that Chrysler will begin using a nine-speed automatic transmission in some of its new products this year, but what we haven't known is that volume at which this gearbox will be used. According to Bloomberg, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been quoted as saying that the automaker expects to sell close to 200,000 units equipped with this new transmission in 2013. Those gear-rich trannies will be spread out across three models, consisting of the redesigned Chrysler 200, the still-unnamed Jeep Liberty replacement and the Dodge Dart.
This transmission should play a pivotal role in making Chrysler vehicles more competitive in their respective segments. Just for comparison, one of the Dart's key competitors, the Toyota Corolla, still uses a four-speed automatic, and a previous report indicates that the next-generation 200 could get up to 38 miles per gallon on the highway, which is better than most non-hybrid midsize sedans on the market. Marchionne says that the new Jeep model is expected during the second quarter of this year, but there is no word as to when the new 200 or nine-speed Dart will debut, but clearly Dodge would like to have the transmission in its compact yesterday. As for that volume figure, it definitely doesn't seem out of reach since the Dart, Liberty and 200 combined for a total of more than 225,000 units in 2012.
How many more gears can we expect in future cars? Probably not many more, since the CEO of transmission-builder ZF, Stefan Sommer, previously stated that nine speeds was the "natural limit" for transmissions.
Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA
Wed, 30 Oct 2013SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.
