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. |

Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020
Mon, Aug 31 2015We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"

Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.
Marchionne wants to nearly double Jeep sales by 2018
Thu, Jan 15 2015Jeep just keeps breaking its own sales records. A couple of weeks ago, the off-road brand announced its worldwide sales exceeded one million units for the first time, marking its third consecutive global record and the fifth straight year of sales increases here in the US. But FCA isn't about to stop there. TheDetroitBureau.com reports that chief executive Sergio Marchionne, speaking to the media at the Detroit Auto Show, has announced a new sales target for the Jeep division: By 2018, he wants to see Jeep sell 1.9 million units in a single year, nearly doubling its all-time record. The expansion will surely encompass new products, with the all-new Renegade just warming up, a next-generation Wrangler on the way and a reborn Grand Wagoneer in the pipeline, as well. But the focus of FCA's preparations to reach the new target is on production capacity. While it's not clear whether the Toledo, OH plant where half of all the Jeeps sold around the world are currently built will continue to host the next Wrangler, FCA is expanding production overseas. The Renegade is already being built alongside the Fiat 500X in Italy, where another 1,000 workers are being re-hired and where another factory is set to start producing Jeeps, as well. A Renegade-based variant for the South American market will soon be built in Brazil, and by the end of this year, Jeep aims to start local production in China.
