Uxbridge, Massachusetts, United States

Awesome 1979 Jeep CJ Sedan. I want to explain that I am selling this reluctantly as I purchased it in 2004-05 and worked on it until my sister's unexpected health issues caused me to move to Maine to take care of her. Since I didn't own/drive the vehicle much there is a lot I have forgotten about since I haven't seen recently it until a couple of weeks ago-so bear with me as I try to list all the details. The Jeep was initially stored inside but space became an issue and it had to be moved outside where it has been for about 5 years. Jeep has the original 304 V8 engine . Anyone with knowledge about Jeeps will know the 8 cylinder Jeeps are getting harder and harder to come by. This CJ has four speed heavy duty transmission and many extras such a Mean Green Alternator,MSD High Vibration coil, electric fan, heavy duty gas tank shell, Dick Cepek tires on American (?)chrome rims, Warn hubs, BF Goodrich 33X12.5 15 Mudders (4 tires/wheels and spare),stainless front bumper, stainless dash, stainless grill, stainless mirrors. Has a 4" rollbar , matching side rock slider set, and gray carpeting Fender flares have been added.Jeep ran well when I left it and my dad started it last year to move it and said it ran well- but system needs to be flushed before running it again and I don't have the resources to do so from Maine. Has power steering/power brakes and Grant leather steering wheel. The Jeep will need to be transported by the new owner-I have driven t on the highway but it is very high and I would not advise it on a regular basis! Has a four barrel Holley carb as well as many other extras I cannot recall. Has a Ramsey Winch and KC lights in the front. Has Powertrax lock right lockers installed but comes with the original spider gears as well. Jeep is lifted 6" over the axles. Beautiful heavy duty cast differential covers front/rear. I had just purchased (and had installed) a new Painless wiring harness but some fool broke into the Jeep a week after I left and stole the Sony CD player I had put into it-so the wiring needs mending. I will include all kinds of spare parts (starter, front seat, rear seat, soft top doors and support, stainless parts, original spider gears,ect.) I have a nice pair of TJ seat brackets/ sliders I will throw in. Will include the original dash and hard doors as well as a HEAVY tow chain.. Jeep comes with the impossible to find ACME hardtop and doors. I travelled from Massachusetts to Big Rapids Michigan to get this nice set. Price does not include Hi-Lift jack. As you can see, everything needs to be cleaned, body frame needs a sand/bead blasting, ect. One of the Cepek tires was leaking air and may/may not be good-I took it off and put the spare on it so it can be moved.I will throw in a set of cj7 fiberglass aftermarket doors and rear hatch for parts,/glass. (I had to purchase these to scavange the highly sought after door latches to use on the Acme doors). Mileage on my title is 102,794 but that is approximate as I have added only a minimal amount since I purchased it.Since I can only be there to meet with the owner after the sale, I am selling this AS IS. It comes with hundreds of dollars in spare parts as shown. I am trying to be completely honest in my listing but I don't need any complications either but will be glad to answer any questions through ebays' messaging system. This was a beautiful Jeep a few years ago and needs some work but it is solid and a classic CJ 4x4 .New buyer is responsible to pick up but I will work with you if time is an issue.
On Jun-06-14 at 00:28:21 PDT, seller added the following information: Obviously this is a CJ5 but I forgot to note that in my listing. Also, before it was parked I had a custom made prop shaft installed by Mitchell Driveline which was in the neighborhood of $500. |

Jeep Cherokee joins Altitude trim line
Wed, 22 Jan 2014Jeep fans spoke up last year by naming the Altitude trim level, and the automaker rewarded them with an assortment of cool Jeeps sporting a sinister, blacked-out appearance. Joining the ranks of Jeep models offering an Altitude trim level is the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, and this might be the best looking of the new Cherokees - including the Trailhawk.
Like the previous versions of this model, the 2014 Cherokee Altitude adds black wheels and exterior trim and molding, and it's only offered in four colors: black, silver, white and granite (shown above). You definitely have to love the look of the black accents since the Altitude raises the Cherokee's price by $2,000 to a starting MSRP of $24,995 (not including destination). Jeep says that the 2014 Cherokee Altitude is a limited-edition model, but there is no mention of any specific production figures.
Joining the new Cherokee Altitude are the updated versions of the Grand Cherokee Altitude and Wrangler Altitude with similar limited color combinations and pricier MSRPs starting at $35,290 and $31,595, respectively. These three new Altitude models will go on sale this spring joining the Compass Altitude and Patriot Altitude, which are on sale now. Scroll down for more info on the updated 2014 Jeep Altitude lineup.
2014 Easter Jeep Safari kicks off with six concepts
Thu, 10 Apr 2014The 2014 Easter Jeep Safari is set to begin this weekend in Moab, Utah, and while it's sure to be a blast for Jeep enthusiasts from all corners of the world, we're looking forward to the wild, off-road ready concepts that Jeep will be bringing to the red rocks. As you can see in our handy headline, there are six such vehicles in total, each of which sports a variety of tweaks and custom bits.
Unlike in years past, where Jeep graced us with some outrageous concepts like the Mighty FC or J-12, this year's vehicles are a bit more restrained and a bit more buildable by enthusiasts. That's not by accident, officials tell us. They wanted to put this year's focus on attainable vehicles and accessories from Mopar and Jeep Performance Parts that existing owners can use to augment their own vehicles. So let's get to it.
We'll start with the Wranglers first. There are three concepts of the jeepiest of Jeep coming to Moab - the Level Red, Maximum Performance and Mojo. The Level Red and the Mojo (seen above) are similar from a suspension and engine standpoint. Both boast a two-inch Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, which officials tell us is coming to market in the next few months. There are a pair of Dana 44 crate axles on both the front and rear, while a Jeep Performance Parts Rock-Trac transfer case has been fitted. The 3.6-liter V6 engines on both Jeeps can breathe a bit easier thanks to a new cold-air intake and exhaust system.
Jeep still working to improve Cherokee's 9-speed auto
Tue, Feb 3 2015Fiat Chrysler is hoping an upcoming software update will stem the tide of consumer complaints surrounding its nine-speed automatic transmission. Owners of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee have reported a number of problems on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's SaferCar.gov website, since the new model and its troubled gearbox arrived way back in October 2013. The software update is "intended to keep the vehicle performing as intended, and to prevent durability issues from occurring in the future," an FCA spokesperson told Automotive News, and will be available to owners of both the 2014 to 2015 Jeep Cherokee and the 2015 Chrysler 200, which also uses the 9AT. While FCA will be notifying consumers of the update, owners can also request the software reflash if they happen into their dealer before then. Despite the widely documented problems with the transmission, the only complaints on NHTSA's website relate to the 2014 Cherokee – neither the 2015 Jeep nor the 200 have received any complaints. That bodes well as FCA prepares to begin deliveries of the 2015 Jeep Renegade and launch the Fiat 500X, both of which pair the 9AT with the 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder. "We have had to do an inordinate amount of intervention on that transmission, surely beyond what any of us had forecast," FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne told Automotive News. "There are things that we have done – that we continue to do. Our proactive customer care intervention has actually increased in intensity on these vehicles in 2014, especially in the second half." What's fascinating about the 9AT's problems are that they haven't been the fault of manufacturer ZF, but have related to software that wasn't "mature" and had "teething problems," Marchionne has said previously, AN reports. With the lack of criticism for the 9AT in 2015 models and this pending software update, though, here's hoping that FCA has finally figured out its fuel-sipping gearbox. Related Video:
