1974 Jeep CJ-5 304 V8
This is an early model CJ-5 in great condition! If you're looking for a vintage CJ that's been well taken care of and hasn't been abused by off-road use or unneeded modifications, then look no further! Much time and effort has been given to installing only the upgrades which improve performance and handling. Thousands of dollars kept in receipts! Jeep is ready for final touches to finish the restoration. Original style and power fitted with modern upgrades to improve safety and comfort 304 cubic-inch V8 packaged with an Edelbrock four-barrel carb = incredible horsepower! New items throughout! New items include: 32 x 11.50 BFG All terrains Bestop softtop and doors Bumpers, fender flares (not on pictures) Greaseable, heavy-duty shackles (factory size) with urethane bushings Rubber body mount kit Stainless steel shock-absorbing steering shaft (Flaming River) Stainless, tiltable column (greatly improves ease of entering vehicle), also Flaming River Grant steering wheel Brakes all around- SSBC drum to disc conversion in front, drum and shoe replacement in back Clutch, transmission seals, and clutch linkage kit 2.5’’ suspension lift Seats & seatbeats Coated header wraps Battery, ignition, distributor, plugs & wires Additional info: The engine runs great and it starts right up! There was a top-end rebuild on the engine less than 500 miles ago! This job included the installation of new lifters, rods, and a slightly oversized camshaft. Other features include an Edelbrock 4-barrel, 600cfm carburetor and Headman headers. As with almost all CJ's this age, the driver & passenger floorboards were starting to rust when I bought it. I have gone through the process of treating any hint of rust. It was a three stage treatment with POR-15 products. After the rust was removed by wire brush, I applied a metal treatment (chemically removes all remaining rust), a POR-15 hardner, & a black POR-15 top coat. Again, this was only the front floorboards. The rest of bed was original paint with no flaking rust. The undercarriage, bed, and floorboards were then rolled with Herculiner for protection and cleaning ease. The original metal body is very solid. It is very hard to find an early model CJ in this condition. To the best of my knowledge, most major components of Jeep (engine, transmission, transfer cases and axles) are also all original. There is a small amount of cracking paint in various areas. This is where one layer of paint was applied over another layer. There is no fiberglass on vehicle. Any questions are encouraged to be asked prior to end of auction. |

New spy photos of the next Jeep Wrangler reveal a backup camera
Fri, Feb 24 2017The new Jeep Wrangler JL is on the way, and we have new spy photos that give us our best look yet. The few vehicles seen in these photos all appear to be the four-door Wrangler Unlimited model, but we know the two-door and pick-up versions are coming as well. No word on when the new model, code-named JL, will debut, but don't expect to wait too much longer before Jeep finally finishes pulling off the wraps. While the Wrangler still is covered in test car camouflage, the "diaper" coverings have been removed from the side. But we still can't tell how the new removable roof and side panels will fit. One new nugget that we can spot is the spare-mounted backup camera. At least the Wrangler is keeping its rear-mounted spare. The overall shape hasn't changed much, but there would be pitchforks and fire in Toledo if Jeep strayed too far from the current design. Like the Porsche 911, the Wrangler's general design is permanently etched in stone. The grille is exposed on a few shots showing the new back-canted seven-slot setup that recalls the YJ generation of Wranglers. The windshield on the new model now appears to be fixed and tilted at more of an angle. Like we said, small changes.

All hail the Hellephant, Mopar's 1,000-horsepower crate engine
Wed, Oct 31 2018It's shocking to say this, but the all-powerful Dodge Demon looks weak now that Mopar has unleashed the Hellephant. This crate motor makes 1,000 horsepower and 950 pound-feet of torque, and its name is a combination of the nickname for the old 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8 and, obviously, the Hellcat. This monster is a 426-cubic-inch version of the current third-generation Hemi V8 topped by a supercharger similar to what the Hellcat line packs. Everything is cranked up to — or perhaps, past — 11. The engine block is made of aluminum and weighs 100 pounds less than the equivalent iron block. All of the internals are forged. The stroke and bore have been increased. The supercharger produces 15 pounds of boost and displaces 3 liters; more than the 2.7-liter blower on the Demon and the 2.4-liter blower on the Hellcat. And as big and powerful as it is, it will still rev to 7,000 rpm. It's a thoroughly monstrous motor, but shockingly, it won't be that difficult to live with. For one thing, Mopar will offer a complete kit to get the engine up and running, including an engine computer, wiring harness and drive-by-wire throttle. It also runs on 93-octane pump gas. That's especially amazing considering the Demon engine "only" makes 840 horsepower, and that's on race gas with 100+ octane fuel. It also has us wondering what the Hellephant could make on racing fuel. The Mopar folks did say that there's room to add more power. Pricing wasn't announced for the Hellephant engine. The Hellcat crate engine retails at $19,350 directly from Mopar, so it's safe to assume that the Hellephant will go for more. The installation kit with the computer and harness will be an extra charge of likely over $2,000, based on the Hellcat kit. The engine and the kit will be available in the first quarter of 2019.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Jeep's Super 'Ute Is Fun Thrown In The Face Of Conventional Wisdom
Let's talk asses for a moment. What do they have to do with the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, you ask?
Well, we're here to tell you that this SRT can haul some. Lots of them, as a matter of fact: Jeep has increased the towing capacity of its most powerful SUV to 7,200 pounds. Assuming the average donkey weighs about 400 pounds, the Grand Cherokee SRT can haul ass to the tune of 18 burros, give or take a covered trailer or so, which is significantly more than it could in previous years. In 2013, the machine could manage 5,000 pounds, while the first generation was rated at just 3,500. The increase is mostly attributable to a new eight-speed automatic transmission and beefier rear axle, and it's a welcome update for those who'd like to use their SUV as, well, an SUV with an emphasis on utility.
