Bassett, Virginia, United States

Immaculate 1986 Jeep CJ7 with a just completed frame on restoration.  This Jeep had the original paint up until 1 month ago when a frame on restoration was done.  The Jeep was a California Jeep and was very solid with no body damage and virtually no rust.  The frame is perfect, NO RUST AT ALL.   I have had this Jeep tagged and on the road for several months and used it as a daily driver before the paint/resto and have driven it a couple of times since then.   I get compliments everytime I drive it, because you just don't see that many CJ7's in this good a condition on the road everyday.  It  runs great, has good tight steering, good power disc brakes on the front and drums on the back in good working order.  It has a 5-speed manual transmission that works smooth with no problems.  The manual hubs, 4-wheel drive and  transfer case are all in good working order with no problems.  I have had this Jeep out on some main highways at 65 mph and it does not wander, shimmy, shake, pull or any of the myths with CJ Jeeps.   It goes straight and you can drive with one hand on the wheel.  It has a long list of new parts on this Jeep that include the paint, 31X10.50x15 all terrain tires, bikini top, manual gauges, fuel sending unit, front seats, mats, tail-light assemblies, park lights, stainless hood  hinges, tail-gate hinges, windshield hinges, mirrors, hood catches, hood decals, cowl vent, windshield to cowl weatherstripping, plugs, battery, oil change, filter, service, fender flares, fuel gauge, clutch, pressure plate, release bearing and pilot bearing, u-joints ......I may have missed something else.....its had a lot of money spent on it and needs very little more.   This is a good, smooth running Jeep with a slick factory Red paint job that turns heads everytime its driven.  It has a current Virginia state inspection (July 2014) and is ready to be driven.  All the seat-belts are in the Jeep also.  I would not be afraid to start anywhere on this Jeep, it is that smooth.  Winning bidder can come pay for the Jeep, bring a tag and drive it home.  I have a clear Virginia title in my name ready to go.  I have a bikini top only for the Jeep, but have ALL the hardware for a soft top, a set of full soft doors and a set of black safari doors go with the Jeep also.  I have a full 5-piece black carpet set that goes with the Jeep.  I did not put it in because I had rather have the ability to pull the plugs and wash it out rather than vacuum carpet, which holds moisture and causes rust.   I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Jeep is for sale locally.  Feel free to ask any questions and I will reply as best as I can.  I check email daily.  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding on an excellent daily driver CJ7 Jeep.

Watch this Jeep Willys return to its birthplace after 70 years

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, a very significant Jeep was celebrated at the Toledo North Assembly plant. No, it wasn't the upcoming reincarnation of the Jeep Cherokee, but instead it was a 1943 Willys MB that visited the Toledo grounds where it had been built exactly 70 years ago to the day.
Of course, the actual building where the MBs rolled off the assembly line before heading to Europe for World War II no longer exists, but that didn't stop Italian owner Vittorio Argento from having the vehicle shipped to the US to make its trek back to its birth place. According to Chrysler, Argento's MB is still 95-percent original and it drove 1,000 miles from New Jersey to Toledo.
The whole adventure was chronicled on a blog aptly named A Jeep Comes Home. Scroll down for a brief video from Chrysler and for some photos of the Toledo visit and be sure to read more at Argento's blog.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.

Jeep Liberty replacement takes shape

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Now that the Liberty has left us for greener pastures, it's time to start looking into the future of the midsize Jeep model. The next all-new vehicle for the off-road brand will be the SUV you see here, effectively replacing the Liberty, and not necessarily carrying on with that name.
From the sides, the prototype you see here sort of looks like a miniature version of the handsome Grand Cherokee, albeit with a bit more in the way of body sculpting. Up front, the seven-slat grille will be front and center, with completely revised headlamp designs that are reportedly angular and sweep well into the front fenders (you can sort of see what we're talking about in the side profile). That doesn't sound very Jeep-like, but we'll reserve judgment until we, you know, see the thing.
The bigger question with the Liberty replacement will be whether or not its off-road chops will be up to snuff. After all, the two previous generations of Liberty models were body-on-frame traditional SUVs, whereas this new Jeep rides on a larger version of the Dodge Dart platform.
