This is a 1946 CJ2A that was purchased new by my Grandfather in mid 1946 in San Francisco.  It was his only vehicle up until the early 60's when he bought a Simca which was easier on my Grandmother to get in and out of.  I have owned it for 25 years and it last ran 10 years ago when I put in a fresh Carb and a new gas tank.  I drove it up under the canopy at my auto restoration shop and it is still there.  The engine is NOT stuck and should be easy to start.   It is a very easily restorable vehicle and is one of the rare jeeps with the 3 speed shift on the column.  Jeep went back to all shifts on the floor later in the model year.  The Sears Allstate cab was installed in the early 50's and I have the original canvas doors as well as some of the rest of the canvas coverings.  I also have the original sales contract that will go with the Jeep.  I have long wanted to restore this for myself, since I learned to drive on it.  However, I have come to the realization that there will never be the money for me to do it, and my son really has no interest in it or a place to keep it when it is done, so it is time to get it into the hands of someone that will re-do it and enjoy it.  Pretty much any and all parts that might be needed are available. 

   Payment will be $100 deposit paid with PayPal within 48 hours of the end of the auction.  The remainder needs to be paid with cash or CC within 30 days of the end of the auction.   I can keep it right where it sits for 6 months with no charge to you, and if you are not able to handle the restoration yourself, we might discuss my doing it for you.  To see what I do, go to      buzzardroostmotors.com   .   Feel free to call me, at 870-421-1693 days or 870-425-8507 evenings to ask any questions you might have.  My web site has all my contact info and my email address so you can ask for more pics if you want.  I can deliver the Jeep anywhere in the US for $1.25 per mile  one way.  I am in north central Arkansas.

     Thanks for bidding and as always there is no reserve.                                    Semper Fi      Kipp

Retro Review covers that Jeep Wrangler TJ you wanted in high school

Fri, May 8 2015

The Jeep Wrangler TJ holds a dear place in my heart. When they were introduced, the return to circular headlights helped pull my dad into the dealer, and he bought one. A few years later, I learned how to drive a stick in that Jeep. Now, MotorWeek has fired up the time machine for a look at the '97 Wrangler as part of the Retro Review series. One of the great things about these videos is that they offer a chance to see if nostalgia lives up to reality. In this situation, that seems to be the mostly case. Even when new, MotorWeek finds a lot to praise about the TJ, especially in terms of handling and style. It's not all perfect, though, with a major complaint about the braking. Watch the clip to see if the show's take on the Wrangler lives up to your memories of them, too.

This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).

Here's what it'll take to build a Jeep Grand Cherokee Hellcat

Fri, Jun 19 2015

Let's get one thing straight: We want a 707-horsepower Grand Cherokee Hellcat to happen. Badly. The latest report from Motor Authority is encouraging; the bonkers SUV supposedly has a codename, Project K, and has been given the green light for production. Fingers crossed. You might be wondering why the Trackhawk isn't already a thing. Hellcat engines exist, SRT Grand Cherokees exist, so just combine the two, right? It's not quite that easy. Here, we outline what needs to happen, why it should be the quickest Hellcat vehicle out there, and why it won't come anywhere near 200 miles per hour. How To Build A Hellcat Jeep The first engineering problem is feeding the air-intensive beast that is the 6.2-liter supercharged V8. The first engineering problem is feeding the air-intensive beast that is the 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8. Breathing is important on two counts: pulling in enough air for the combustion to put out 707 hp, and then cooling the various heat exchangers once the engine is up to temperature. Dodge did it with the Charger and Challenger, it can do it with the Jeep. This is one place where the Grand Cherokee's larger frontal area might be a boon, as it gives the engineers more surfaces through which to suck air. Once you generate the 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, it has to get to the wheels somehow. Jeep's current SRT all-wheel-drive system will at least need some beefing up to handle the torque. It could require a more complete re-engineering. We at least know the ZF-supplied eight-speed auto, used in the Dodge Hellcat models, is up to the task. The Hellcat engine should fit in the Grand Cherokee, as it's about the same size as the 6.4-liter currently in SRT Jeeps, but the Hellcat is taller because of its supercharger. The hood may need to be raised or at least resculpted for clearance, as well as to address those cooling needs. Quicker Than Everything, But Not Faster 200 mph? We're skeptical, from both a physics standpoint and a legal one. A reminder of the quick/fast distinction: quick is acceleration, fast is road speed. The Jeep's all-wheel drive will help put the Hellcat engine's power to the ground in a more manageable way than the Charger and Challenger do through just the rear wheels. That means better acceleration times than the Dodges (11.0 seconds in the quarter-mile for the Charger Hellcat, 11.2 for its Challenger sibling).
