Wheels & tires:  15x10 aluminum rims, 6 x 5.5 bolt pattern.  38x12.50-15LT Super Swamper TSL's in like new condition, with no rips, tears, holes, plugs, dry rot, etc.

Body: Floor boards were replaced with actual panels, and done properly.  No rust anywhere else on the Jeep.  Body was stripped to bare metal and painted, not show quality by any means, but looks decent.  There are a few runs, etc.  The inside was scrubbed, sanded and bed lined.  All seats are in pretty good condition, with black "Jeep" seat covers over the fronts.  Two rear seats included, one black (matches the front seats) and one grey.

Frame:  One of the cleanest I have seen around here, near perfect condition. 

Armor:  I built a Bumper and some rock sliders, not quite poison spyder quality, but pretty decent either way.  The bumper currently is not set up for a winch, but I made it so a winch plate could be added later very easily.


I did not install the Engine, transmission/transfer case into the Jeep.  I do not know how many miles are on any of those components, but the Jeep does run well and I have driven it around my yard in all gears ( transmission and t-case).  The carb could use some adjustments, I think it runs a little rich and the electric choke does not work properly, I do have a manual choke conversion included though.  I just replaced the battery a month or so ago with a new Duralast one.  Oil was just changed, air filter changed.  Axles were disassembled, cleaned and painted before installation, with new gaskets/seals as needed, and fresh 80/90 gear oil.  When stripping the interior out of it, the bolts for the rear seat broke, and I did not finish removing them as of this ad, but two rear seats are included, just not installed.  The seatbelts have not been reinstalled either, I was going to ad onto the cage and install harnesses.  The factory clock is the only factory gauge that works, but aftermarket oil pressure and water temp gauges are installed and work properly.  The windshield is cracked, from top to bottom, on the passenger side.  I do have a good condition windshield that is included to replace it.  I have a set of LED back up lights and a horn included that need to be installed also.  It does have a white hard top in pretty good condition, and green hard doors in pretty good condition included also.  I have more pictures, please send me an email address if you would like more pictures sent to you.


I do have a fair amount of extra parts included, IE: driveshafts, soft tops and hardware, sway bar, half doors color matched to the Jeep, 2 sets of soft uppers one zipper window one sliding window, both in ok shape, bikini top and some other stuff I can't remember right now.  Depending on the sale price, I have a set of 4.88 gears, and a carrier that could be included. 


Jeep is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime without prior notice to anyone.  Jeep is for local pick up only, but delivery could possibly be worked out.  Please contact me prior to bidding if you wish to ship.  I reserve the right to cancel any bids, for any reason.  Please contact me with any questions, comments or concerns.  Thank you and happy bidding!

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.

NHTSA boss Strickland weighs in on Jeep recall fracas

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

Adding yet another chapter to the ongoing Jeep recall story, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) head David Strickland has gone on record to defend the government's request that Chrysler recall 2.7 million out-of-production Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Liberty vehicles after the agency investigated fiery rear-end collisions that have reportedly killed at least 51 people over the years. In statements made to The Detroit News, Strickland said, "We felt very strongly that the process that we undertook and the findings that we made and ... we made the decision to issue a recall request. We do not take that very lightly." The top US auto safety regulator stopped short of telling owners to park their cars until the automaker takes action. "They can make their own risk assessment and their own choices," he said.
Chrysler does not intend to recall the models, insisting the "vehicles met and exceeded all applicable requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, including FMVSS 301, pertaining to fuel-system integrity" when they were manufactured and sold. "The company does not agree with NHTSA's conclusions and does not intend to recall the vehicles cited in the investigation. The subject vehicles are safe and are not defective," Chrysler announced last week in a statement. "We believe NHTSA's initial conclusions are based on an incomplete analysis of the underlying data, and we are committed to continue working with the agency to resolve this disagreement."
Legally, Chrysler has until June 18 to formally respond to NHTSA's request. If the automaker does not take action, NHTSA is expected to issue a formal finding and seek a recall.

Jeep Cherokee finally dealer-bound

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

We had our First Drive of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee last month, but it appears that prospective buyers won't have too much longer to finally get time behind the wheel of the new small Jeep.
Automotive News is reporting that after a two-month delay, Jeep dealers will finally start receiving their first shipments of the new Cherokee, in the next 10 days. A Chrysler spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the Cherokee is indeed on its way to Jeep dealers.
According to AN, about 23,000 Cherokees have been built since production commenced back in June, but potential powertrain issues forced Jeep to make adjustments to the Cherokee along the way. Automotive News says that in order to make sure there are no issues with the Cherokee before it reaches customers, it is testing each vehicle after it rolls off the assembly line at a rented test track near the vehicle's Toledo North Assembly Plant.
