She’s got the LOOK!
Selling my wife’s 1979 Jeep CJ5 Custom Resale RED “Hot Rod”!
Yeah you heard me right my wife’s Jeep. A couple of years ago she wanted a toy
to ride around town in and take to the local car shows and monthly cruise in.
Well she found this Jeep and fell in love with it. It is COOL, FAST, LOUD,
DEPENDABLE, FUN and gets attention everywhere you go. This Jeep underwent a full frame off restoration. Then later the owner at that time had an awesome Chevy 350 V8 built and installed. The professional engine builder estimates the horsepower at 350 HP It is mated up to a GM TH350 automatic transmission attached with
Advance Adapters to the stock Dana 20 transfer case with custom drive shafts
running to a stock front end and to a fully custom Ford 9 inch rear end. The
rear was narrowed and features Lock-Right Powertrax Automatic Positive locking
Differential. The front axle sports Pro-Comp hubs. Controlling the TH350 is a B
& M bump shifter with reverse lock out. If you want to leave a red light
FAST this Jeep will make it happen with slight pressure on the right foot! Features: 15 x 10 Eagle Alloys Mickey Thompson 33 x 12.50 Baja Claw Tires (less than

range Disc brakes front and Drum rear stop the Jeep straight
and safely The interior is clean and nice It sounds GREAT! You will wake your neighbors The winch has never been used and works as new w/ remote Passes North Carolina inspection All lights work – Headlights both low & high, brakes,
running and turn signals All gauges work perfectly Indicator lights for high beam and turn signals all work The windshield wipers work in both high and low speeds The Bad: The paint is not 100% perfect. Hey it is a Jeep right? There are a few very small chips on the front edge of the
front fenders There are two paint chips on the driver’s side entry area
hidden with the doors on There are two small dings on the hood (no chips) that do
not show in the pictures There is one very small ding on the top of the driver’s
side front fender There are some small blisters in the paint on the cowl behind the hood in front of the windshield There is a very small oil leak around the transmission oil pan It has a new horn but it needs a new horn switch in the
steering column. It works if the wheel is turned just right. The indicator light for the four wheel drive is not
hooked up There is not a park brake put it is an automatic so no
big deal The glove box is fake and only a chrome door cover for
looks True miles on this Jeep are unknown. The Jeep shows 22K miles since the frame off restoration and build. You also get a folder almost two inches thick of receipts,
engine specs and owner’s manuals for the winch and carburetor. We have owned three CJ’s and two Wranglers and have never
had one this cool and so well done. With a short wheelbase, lifted, oversize
tires and twice the stock horsepower this Jeep deserves respect. Having driven
it now a couple of years I find it very easy and fun to drive. We call it our
Go Cart! I ran it down I-40 two weeks ago for five miles both ways and kept up
with all traffic easy in a 70 MPH speed zone and it tracked and handled GREAT.
I added 3 degree shims under the front axle last year and it improved the
steering considerably but on grooved two lane country roads it will wonder. On
good smooth roads and highways she drives straight & easy. The total investment to date on this Jeep exceeds $18,000.00.
I have the reserve set a few thousand under that number. This Jeep is for sale
locally for $16,500.00 and I reserve the option to end this auction immediately if the Jeep
sells. This is a very nice Jeep and I’m sure I have missed listing some of the options. Clear North Carolina title in hand in my wife’s name.
Terms: I require a $500.00 deposit via PayPal by the winning bidder within 24 hours. Full Payment and pick up within 7 days of close of auction. Buyer responsible for pick up or transportation. I welcome any questions. Please feel free to contact me on
my cell at 336-480-7851. Thank you for looking and happy bidding. Mark |

FCA recalling 63k Jeeps, Vipers and Ram ProMaster City vans
Thu, Apr 23 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has announced a pair of recalls cover nearly 63,000 vehicles. The bigger of the two actions covers manual-transmission-equipped vehicles from 2006, including the Jeep Liberty and Wrangler, as well as the Dodge Viper. FCA engineers uncovered that the clutch ignition interlock switches use a kind of wire that was part of a previous recall campaign. Because of this, the company said that affected vehicles may not start, although in rare cases, "if recommended starting procedures are not followed," the affected vehicles may lurch forward after turning the key. Those recommended starting procedures "include activating the parking brake, placing the shift lever in neutral and pressing the clutch pedal before turning the vehicle's ignition key." Recall number two affects the company's 2015 Ram ProMaster City cargo and passenger vans. Owners will need to report to dealers to have a piece of tape removed from the side-curtain airbags. The tape is added during assembly and in some cases, may not have been removed. That could prevent the airbags from deploying in the event of a crash. Just under 59,000 vehicles are included in the first recall, including 43,874 in the United States, 11,309 outside of North America, 2,944 in Canada and 706 in Mexico. The ProMaster City recall includes just over 3,900 vehicles. FCA claims it's unaware of any injuries, fatalities or accidents related to either recall and will perform repairs free of charge. Scroll down for the official press release on both campaigns. Related Video: Statement: Clutch Ignition Interlock Switch April 23, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is launching a voluntary recall of an estimated 43,874 older-model U.S.-market cars and SUVs equipped with manual transmissions. The Company will replace their clutch ignition interlock switches at no charge to customers. The action follows an investigation by FCA US engineers that discovered these vehicles are equipped with switches that contain a certain type of wire implicated in a previous campaign. The wire, which was temporarily substituted by a supplier for the specified material, may break. As a result, the vehicles may not start, and in rare cases – if recommended starting procedures are not followed – a vehicle may exhibit unintended movement when its ignition key is turned. FCA US is unaware of aware of any related injuries or accidents involving this population of vehicles.
Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide
Thu, 06 Jun 2013Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.
