Up for auction is this 3 speed 1975 CJ5 Jeep I purchased in Washington, OR in 2005, and drove it 1,600 miles back to Iowa with no problems! It has the stock 258 6 cylinder engine (not the 232) and had 69,000 miles on it. I am the 4th owner. It was originally passed down from Grandfather to Grandson in 1991 with 23,000 miles, and sold to the gentleman I bought it from with 47,000 miles. It had been repainted from the original white to dark metallic blue. Custom features include stainless bumpers, bumper guards, body hardware and interior grab bar. It has a black powder coated Swing Away Spare Tire Carrier (paint is peeling off); a big option at that time, an entire black Rhino lined interior pan and wheel wells. Wheel Rims are 15x8 5/5-1/2 (#164 Ultra) polished aluminum with s/s center caps. Included are the Original Window Sticker, 1975 Owner’s Manual, Warranty Pamphlets, original Repair Receipts, and Ads used to sell this jeep. Also included are Moses Ludel’s Jeep CJ Rebuilder’s Manual 1972-1986, Chilton’s Repair & Tune Up Guide 1947-1987. This jeep is in good mechanical condition and has a plenty of pep. I would not hesitate to drive it back to Oregon. It does burn a little oil and I suspect that someday it will need the rings replaced. The biggest problem is that it has sat outside, so developed the inevitable rust holes in the quarters. The left upper plastic door window has a foot long tear, otherwise, the Bestop soft top is in pretty good condition. The front seats had tears in them when I bought this jeep. I see one can now buy the 1975 original appearing seats, which were unavailable for a long time. I installed a new HEI distributor a couple of years ago, and recently installed a new valve cover gasket and had the carburetor overhauled, as it was hard to start if it sat for more than one week. Now it starts fine. The throw out bearing complains occasionally in really cold weather. Currently, it has 76,333 miles, so I have driven it about 7,000 miles during the past eight years. It is a great winter vehicle, which is what I mainly used it for, and of course fun to drive in the summer with the doors off. I am selling this jeep now as I’m in my 60’s and it is becoming increasingly uncomfortable for me to get in and out of it, especially with the door height and it’s short wheelbase ride. This would be a nice jeep the way it is now or as a project to restore or customize. Originally I paid $7500 for it, but am starting the bidding at $5,000 due to the needed rust repairs. Am selling ‘AS IS’ with no refunds or returns! Buyer must pick up Jeep and I must be paid via Bank Cashier’s Check or in cash, before I sign the Title and the Jeep leaves my house. Good luck bidding! |

Project Trail Force Jeep Wrangler goes to SEMA, then to a lucky winner
Wed, Jul 1 2015Extreme Terrain is an aftermarket parts company focused on the Jeep Wrangler. Partly just because it's a really cool thing to do, and probably having something to do with Jeep's upcoming 75th anniversary, Extreme Terrain found some dance partners to help work up a special 2015 Wrangler Rubicon that it will show off at the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival in Butler, PA, then at SEMA in November, where it will be given away. Extreme worked with Barricade Off-Road and Kevin Tetz from the Spike show Trucks! to build the Wrangler it calls Project Trail Force. There is more than $24,000 worth of aftermarket gear on it, starting with the Ripp centrifugal supercharger that pumps an additional 140 horsepower into the 3.6-liter V6. It's got a 3.5-inch lift kit from Rock Krawler, Dana 44 axles strung between 37-inch BFG tires, Barricade bumpers, a 9,500-pound winch, fender flares, rock sliders, a 50-inch LED light bar above the windshield, LED spotlights on the A-pillars, and seven-inch KC Hilites headlights. Rugged Ridge worked over the inside with upgrades like all-terrain floor and cargo liners, plus seat covers, and a new navigation system with a back-up camera. If you want to win it, you can enter the contest at Extreme Terrain once every week until Oct. 23. The winner gets flown to SEMA to have Kevin Tetz hand the keys over. If you just want to see it, you can head to PA for that heritage festival. The Project Trail Force will also lead a Jeep parade that could set a Guinness World Record. The press release below has a lot more info on the build. Good luck. EXTREMETERRAIN AND BARRICADE OFF-ROAD TO UNVEIL THEIR FULLY-BUILT 2015 JEEP WRANGLER AT BANTAM JEEP FESTIVAL ExtremeTerrain.com and Barricade Off-Road teamed up to build a $73,000+ 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon to be given away to a lucky winner at the 2015 SEMA Show • Giveaway Link: http://www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-project-trailforce-giveaway.html • Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsO6fxVq6kI MALVERN, Pa. (June 12, 2015) – ExtremeTerrain, a leader in providing aftermarket Jeep Wrangler parts, along with rugged, enthusiast-driven Jeep Wrangler aftermarket armor and accessories manufacturer Barricade Off-Road, today unveiled a fully-built 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon dubbed Project Trail Force at the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival in Butler, PA.
NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.
Bentley Continental GT V8 and Toyota 4Runner | Autoblog Podcast #604
Fri, Nov 15 2019In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. First, they talk about driving the 2020 Bentley Continental GT V8 First Edition, followed by the 2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road. Then they revive a format called "This or That," discussing the Jeep Wrangler vs. Gladiator, Subaru Forester vs. Outback, Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger, and whether they'd rather spend $25,000 on a new or vintage car. They've got an update on a previous Spend My Money segment, and, finally, they help another listener pick a daily driver.
