This jeep is rough.  See the pictures.  I have owned the jeep for about 10 years and it has been a great off roading jeep and even a daily driver at times when needed.  It comes with the four extra rims and all terrain tires seen in the photos.  The AMC 360 starts right up with no knocking and only smokes for a few minutes after sitting up for a longer period of time.  It has a TF 727 3 speed transmission that was rebuilt about 7 years ago.  It has a functional 229 transfer case and it has no problem getting out of 4 low.  Recently the vacuum activated 4 wheel drive developed a leak near the switch under the dash and it should be an easy fix.  Before this leak the 4 wheel drive worked great and shifted on the fly.  It currently has mud tires, as seen in the pics) but they are older and need to be replaced.  It does have all four center caps and two of the rims have center caps, and for the wagonner fans it has a functional clock.  AC worked the last time I charged the system.  I had planned to build a tube frame and turn it into a fun off roading jeep.  I no longer have space for it in my yard.  To many other projects.  Please feel free to ask questions.  I say again this is a parts/project vehicle.  There are lots of little things that need fixing and I do not wish to misrepresent what you are getting.  Drive train is solid, but it does leak fluid from the front main and the power steering reservoir leaks fluid.  You will have no problems with cutting and welding on this old girl to build up to what ever you would like.  Frame is solid with no rust.  It does have 2 inch add a leafs but one spring pack got slightly damaged on my last rock crawling venture.  The paint is faded, but the jeep is pained in durabak coating.  Please email with any questions.     Actually mileage is unknown.  The dash gauge cluster has been changed out.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab Edition

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

There will forever be a soft spot in my heart for the Jeep Wrangler. The last one I owned was red, and, as a 1990 model, had the square headlights derided by Jeep enthusiasts who grew up on the Civilian Jeeps that descended from their General Purpose military ancestors. As a teenager, I couldn't have cared less what shape its headlights happened to be - to me, a Jeep Wrangler represented freedom; a carefree do-it-all machine equally at home with the top stowed away in the summer or with the heater on full blast in the snowy clutches of Old Man Winter. In Dr. Seuss parlance, my square-headlighted Sneetch was just as worthy as any round-headlighted Sneetch.
All that said, I'll be the first person to advise against buying a Jeep Wrangler of any sort for owners who don't plan to use it as its makers intend. There's no good reason to punish yourself with a stiff and springy ride, a loud and somewhat drafty (though generally water-resistant) interior or the poor fuel economy expected of a block-shaped vehicle if you don't enjoy its other, more exciting benefits.
Of course, Jeep has done its darndest over the years to make the Wrangler as civilized as possible while keeping it as capable as federal law will allow. The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab edition is one of Jeep's latest attempts to attract attention from the upper reaches of the active lifestyle set, and I spent a week with one to see what makes the Moab special.

Jeep gunning for 1M sales this year

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

Jeep CEO Mike Manley would rather soft-pedal the seven-figure prognostication for now, but Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne won't have it, proclaiming in an interview that Jeep will sell one million units worldwide this year. Manley has called that come-hither number "a stretch," the history of recent gains perhaps reason for his caution: in 2011 the brand sold 568,317 units, followed by the record-breaking tally of 701,626, then another record in 2013 with 731,565 units moved.
That kind of gap means everything will need to go magically for Jeep to record a 37-percent increase this year - amazing Cherokee sales, a brilliant launch for the little Jeep arriving in Europe later this year and a heavy wave to raise sales in US, European and Chinese markets. Manley is confident about the prospects in 2015, though, with the Cherokee in full stride, the Fiat-based Jeep on its way to the US and expanded global production. It's not as though Marchionne's prediction for Jeep's 2014 sales is unexpected, since he first made it last year. But even if the number ends up a little short for 2014, there's no doubt it will be impressive.
