This Jeep CJ 5 is in great running condition. The body has no rust at all. It's been stored inside, always. The paint his black on black. There is a few runs on the paint, but not a big deal. I've recently put a rebuilt carb on it, the old one was bleeding out fuel. I put a brand new radiator on it. It has a new fuel pump, fuel filter, plugs, wipers and a brand new muffler. This thing is fun and has been taken care of. My son has been driving it to school, but we recently got him a car, so we have to get rid of some toys/vehicles. There is a Skyjacker lift on it, along with 33 inch oversized tires. The tires are in good shape, the rims are, to me, in great shape and they look nice. It comes with 2 half doors, 2 full doors, a bikini top, and a tow bar. I haven't had time to fabricate the tow bar to the jeep yet. There are heavy duty seat belts, as you can see in the pics, we didn't use the shoulder ones much, we used the ones around your waist. The flooring has been sprayed, like the back of a pickup truck, to keep rust away. There is a dent in the front by the driver's side, you can see it in the pic, to me it's not a big deal. There is extra parts that will come with it and they all work, such as the other carb, fuel pump, fuel filter and anything else I got laying around that belongs to it. My son and I consider this an oversized 4 wheeler, but you can take it anywhere. We've driven it from Rockford, Il. to the St. Louis, Mo. area last summer. My reserve price is less than what I recently paid for a used Honda 4 wheeler. We love this Jeep, but it's just not being used enough anymore. If you have any questions, just ask, thanks, Rich.

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Jeep dealer buries WWII Willys GP in showroom floor
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Willys MB Jeep earned icon status during World War II thanks to its ruggedness, simplicity and go-anywhere ability. Following the war, it didn't take long for the handy vehicles to be scooped up by the public, and a brand slowly grew around the vehicles that has continued to thrive. Fast-forward to present day, where it's not uncommon for auto dealers to try to grab some of the magic of yesteryear by displaying classic models to connect customers with their brands' proud histories. Now, a Canadian Chrysler Group dealer is taking that notion to the extreme by actually making a vintage WWII Jeep part of its foundation.
Bay King Chrysler in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, recently completed its new showroom, and the franchise really wanted to show its dedication to the Jeep brand. As dealer principal Jamie Richter tells Autoblog, the inspiration for the Jeep installation came from his brother, who became fascinated with a home that had a glass floor looking down into its wine cellar. The company already had the 1943 Willys MB to display, but it had originally planned to build a jungle gym around it for customers' kids. Now, the classic is literally in the floor as customers enter. Richter tells Autoblog that customer reaction so far has been "fantastic."
It's certainly a novel way to bring people into the showroom, and seemingly a nice nod not only to Jeep, but to the men and women who served in the war. If you want to see more about how the Jeep was actually installed and what it looks like, check out this video.
2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay
Fri, 17 May 2013Jeep's bold-faced new direction spearheaded by the 2014 Cherokee is facing some teething issues. According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, production start-up of the controversial new utility vehicle at its Toledo North facility is running about a month behind schedule "due to a wide range of issues." That's according to Mark Chernoby, senior vice president of engineering at Chrysler.
Chernoby maintains that the issues being encountered aren't unusual for the launch of a new vehicle - particularly one with a new powertrain - and he downplayed the delay, telling Jeep dealers that they "will have ample inventory of the midsize SUV by fall." Among the kinks being worked out? Calibrating the Cherokee's cutting-edge ZF nine-speed automatic transmission and refining assembly line tasks to make the process more efficient.
Chrysler expects to start building retail-ready versions of the Cherokee around mid-June, with official sales slated to start in September.
