1982 Jeep Cj7 Renegade 6 Cylinder 5 Speed Original Paint Unrestored Survivor on 2040-cars
Franktown, Colorado, United States
This is a very nice original 1982 jeep cj7 renegade with its renegade name removed probably after it was new. All the stripes are still the original 1982 factory applied stripes. I just bought a polaris rzr, and have decided that may be what I would rather put my money in. This jeep should be left the way it is and preserved. I was going to get the factory renegade decals in the exact color from Phoenix graphics. They sell it only for $85.00.
Body: the body is really very straight.. Starting to bubble up on the exterior in a few places, but amazingly great condition for being a 32 year old off road vehicle. Still has all the factory stripes minus the renegade decal on hood. Factory hardtop with doors. Tailgate opens and shuts nice, as does rear hatch, with twist handle holding it tight. The rear windows have the factory tint. Hood shuts nice and tight, with no crease as do most from hitting roof. The drivers side floor has rust as shown, no patch panels, diamond plating, bondo ect. What you see is a rare unrestored original. This would be really nice to keep it his way, but also and easy restoration jeep, or just drive it as a jeep should be...still has rare factory jack and lug wrench on inner fender, usually missing..I do not have the key for the doors or rear hatch, bug should be very easy to Get at a locksmith. Also included is a box of new bushings, as some have been installed already. Interior: The front seats have been covered at sometime, rear seat looks pretty nice still. Factory carpet has been removed, and is still in great shape. Just over the years the guy must have had snow on his shoes and soaked under the carpet, as most did. There is a small part also on floor behind driver with some rust. Easy repair on both, with all the small patch panels available. Dash is rare uncut original!! No radio. All the gauges work except the fuel gauge, may be a sending unit? 4wd light comes on on the dash still. Still has factory console. Tilt power steering horn works. Drivetrain This has the great 258 6 cylinder, coupled with the optional 5 speed for 1982. 4wd works great in both high and low,along with he factory lock out hubs. Running on the rare optional chrome factory jeep wheels, usually reserved for the laredos. Brand new less than 350 miles, firestone 30x9.50x15 much tires at a cost of almost $900 for 5 all on factory jeep wheels. The smog pump was taken off, but included as shown. The cat is still on the jeep. Another rare thing is usually when people took these off they almost always trashed them. I believe this jeep had either factory a/c or dealer installed a/c. Includes the rare jeep a/c unit, but don't have compressor. Gone alternator has gone a/c bracket still mounted on top. What another super rare accessory. Jeep runs great, goes down the highway smooth, no pulls. Tires don't sing much. Rear axle code shows this to be a 3:31. Jeep was bought new here in denver at kearns jeep, still attached. 1982 was the 1st year for the wide trac axles, another desirable addition. This jeep is really a amazing survivor, with rare options as a 5 speed, a/c, tilt wheel, renegade package, factory chrome wheels, hard top.. I have a clear colorado title, and vehicle Is stored inside a building. I can store it for the winning bidder for 1 month free, then $75.00 per month after. I will include a buy it now, but once the low reserve is met it will go away. Check my feedback, as I tend to describe to much, but have never had anyone upset about that!! Look at some of the others for sale with 2-3 line descriptions or painted, or the wonderful diamond plating to cover the rust. You will know exactly what your buying...please email with any questions. |

Jeep CEO a fan of pickup redux
Tue, Mar 10 2015The idea of a Jeep pickup is a hardly a new concept. After all, putting a bed on the company's rugged off-roaders goes back to the '40s, not to mention the more recent Cherokee-based Comanche. There's a very slim chance that a truck could return to the lineup down the line if brand CEO Mike Manley gets his wish. "I remain a big fan of a Jeep pickup. I think we have history that says it belongs in our portfolio," Manley said to The Detroit News. However, there's no need to get any hopes up soon, because a truck doesn't get any mention in the brand's five-year plan. That puts the earliest possible introduction around 2019. Even Manley is tempering expectations. "At this moment and time, I have higher priorities. That doesn't mean to say that we don't work on it, we're not looking at it," he said to The Detroit News. The most likely candidate to support a future Jeep truck is the next-gen Wrangler, according to The News. The rest of FCA's pickups and SUVs are running at capacity, which makes slipping in another variant difficult. However, the future Wrangler is heavily rumored to get an expanded production facility in Toledo, OH, which could make things possible. Anonymous FCA insiders confirmed to Autoblog that the next-gen Wrangler would be offered with a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 and eight-speed automatic. It's also reportedly using solid axles at the front and rear, a fixed windshield and an aluminum body. That could make for a very fun and practical off-roader. If reading all of this speculation gives you a twinge of deja vu, it should. After the Jeep Gladiator concept (pictured above), there were years of speculation about the brand bringing the pickup back. Even then the plan was for a compact truck to tackle that hole in the segment. It was even believed that the project had a green light for production seemingly with Sergio Marchionne's blessing. Then things were pushed back, and last year, the idea was officially quashed. Related Video:
What will Detroit do with the abandoned AMC headquarters?
Mon, Dec 28 2015As with so many other industrial and residential properties in Detroit, the former headquarters for the American Motors Corporation is having a hard time finding a reputable buyer. In October the Wayne County Treasurer held a tax foreclosure auction of 25,000 properties that included the AMC building, the starting bid being $500. Nicholas Casab won the building for $500, but the county voided the sale when Casab didn't pay the $232,000 in back property taxes. Detroit authorities haven't commented on the failed sale, but the city has until January 4 to decide if it wants to keep the building. If it doesn't want to hold onto it, the 1.5-million-square-foot property on 57 acres might be ceded to the Wayne County Land Bank Corporation. No matter who holds the deed come January 5, all anyone really wants is for someone to take possession of the building who will actually turn it into something useful and viable. The property opened in 1927 as a factory for the Kelvinator Corporation. Over the following decades, Kelvinator merged with the Nash Motor Company, and that merged entity merged with Hudson Motor Car Co, becoming American Motors. Chrysler took over the building in 1987 when it bought AMC, then shuttered it in 2009. The complex has produced refrigerators, Sikorsky helicopters, Jeeps, AMCs, and was used as an engineering center for Jeeps and other Chrysler products. Having been through several hands in the past six years, it is cited as part of the cycle of abandonment plaguing Detroit.

Jeep Renegade configurator switches on
Fri, Jan 30 2015Less than a week after letting loose with pricing information for its 2015 Renegade, Jeep has powered up the configurator for its new compact CUV, giving us our first complete look at pricing for the model's healthy options catalog. If you've messed around with any of FCA's other online configurators, the Renegade's will be immediately familiar. Pick a trim, interior and exterior color, optional extras and packages, and you're done. Of course, we don't write these posts just to let you know about a configurator going live. We do them because it gives us an excuse to mess about with all the different varieties of a new model, and, on occasion, to build something surprisingly expensive or cheap, just to see if it can be done. The Renegade certainly has no issues when it comes to the former. If you want the priciest model, you'll need the $25,995 Trailhawk, which can be priced up to $33,330. We got to that figure by adding the $1,495 Trailhawk Premium Group (heated, powered leather seats, dual-zone climate control, heated steering wheel, 40/20/40 split-rear seats), the $595 Safety and Security Group I (blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic assist and an alarm), the $395 Trailer Tow Group, the $1,395 powered MySky system, a $150 hood decal (which might mean that you can get a Trailhawk without a black stripe), a $1,295 navigation system with satellite radio, a $495 nine-speaker stereo, a $295 push-button starter, a $200 remote starter and a $75 tonneau cover. Will you need all of those options? Not really. But many of them would certainly fall into the "must-have" category for customers. Head over to Jeep's consumer page and mess about with the configurator, and let us know what you think of the full pricing (and what your ideal spec looks like!) in Comments. Related Video:
