This is a 1983 Jeep CJ-7. It was a frame off restoration in late 2009. It was an upgrade restoration, not a show vehicle restoration. This Jeep was built to be used. 


THE GOOD:

Clear Alabama title in Hand !!
All Guages Work ! 
The red "Brake" light and the "4wd" indicator in the cluster work !
Fender, hood, grill, tailgate, and windshield frame are all OEM and in great shape. 
The tub is in great shape for it's age except for the small areas of rust in the usual places.
This Jeep has lots of usable upgrades. It is not a show stopper or a Hot Rod.
258 6 cylinder with DUI distributor, Motorcraft 2100 carburator, aftermarket aluminum valve cover.
T-5  5 speed transmission
Dana 30 front end with 3.31 gears
Amc 20 rear end with 3.31 gears

Bestop Supertop in great shape, all zippers work, only minor scratches in windows
Delta tool box mounted behind the rear seat. 
Tuffy Security Console w/Stereo compartment (no radio installed)

THE BAD:

This Jeep marks it's territory ! If you are not sure what that means this may not be the Jeep for you !
The right front fender flare is shot. These are 1985 OEM flares and the sun has not been kind to them.
The right rear corner of the tub has been repaired where the Prius run under it but has not been painted.
The entire left side panel of this Jeep was replaced at some point in time before I bought it. They did a good job. I just want you to know up front.
There are small rust bubbles starting to form under the Jeep logo on both sides.
There are small rust bubbles starting on the left side of the cowl just below the hinge.
There are small pinholes in the passenger floor board where the previous owner had a roll cage bolted in. They used carpet as a gasket and it held water.
The right rear axle seal has started to leak. If you use the "Buy It Now" option I will include a set of brand new Superior One Piece Axles.
The indicator lights for the wipers and the headlights do not work. I will include new OEM ones to replace them with.

This is not a highway Jeep !!  At 60 MPH things happen quickly with the short wheelbase and power steering ! The ride is firm but not harsh.

EU finds Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki Vitara break emissions rules

Thu, Jan 23 2020

AMSTERDAM — Fiat Chrysler's Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki's Vitara diesel models both break emissions rules and must be fixed or face a ban on sales across Europe, the Dutch road authority ruled on Thursday. The RDW authority, acting as the reference regulator for across the European Union, said Jeep had developed a software fix and that the authority had ordered the company to recall the model across Europe to roll it out. It added Suzuki had yet to find a credible solution for the Vitara. "Suzuki must come with adequate improvement measures or the RDW will begin the process of revoking its European type approval," the RDW said in a statement, adding it had also started the process of revoking approval for the Jeep Grand Cherokee as a "precautionary measure." Regulators across the world have been testing diesel models since Volkswagen admitted in 2015 that it used illegal software to cheat U.S. emissions tests. The RDW said it had found both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Vitara had used "prohibited emissions strategies" that led them to emit higher levels of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) on the road than under testing conditions. Dutch State Secretary for Infrastructure, Stientje van Veldhoven, said in a letter to parliament she would inform prosecutors of the RDW's findings. Fiat Chrysler and Suzuki could not immediately be reached for comment. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

eBay Find of the Day: 1977 Jeep J20 time capsule

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

Is it just us or has eBay really become, of late, a surprising time capsule of older, barely used automobiles? We've had the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT with 83 miles, the 2004 Ferrari Enzo with 175 miles, the 1987 Shelby Lancer with 22 miles, the 1989 Shelby Dakota with 23 miles - none of those four cars ever even registered - and the 1975 Cosworth Vega with 191 miles. You can add to that list a 1977 Jeep J20 - the kind of Jeep that enthusiasts point to when they beg the brand to make another pickup truck.
Listed on eBay by Masterpiece Classic Cars in Whiteland, Indiana, the Brandywine and Alpine White truck has used its 360-cubic-inch V8 paired with a three-speed automatic to go just 3,940 documented miles. Not surprisingly, it's listed in excellent condition and the images appear to bear that out. The three-quarter-ton pickup comes with its original manual and pamphlets, the Quadra-Track four-wheel drive probably just as ready to tackle the terrain as it was 36 years ago. If only it came with some John Denver to play in that AM/FM/8-Track stereo...
At the time of writing it hasn't garnered a single offer or bid, probably due to the above-top-dollar Buy It Now price of $34,900. Still, since this is likely the closest you'll get to a Jeep pickup for some time, we'd recommend admiring it in the gallery of photos above.

Jeep Liberty replacement takes shape

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Now that the Liberty has left us for greener pastures, it's time to start looking into the future of the midsize Jeep model. The next all-new vehicle for the off-road brand will be the SUV you see here, effectively replacing the Liberty, and not necessarily carrying on with that name.
From the sides, the prototype you see here sort of looks like a miniature version of the handsome Grand Cherokee, albeit with a bit more in the way of body sculpting. Up front, the seven-slat grille will be front and center, with completely revised headlamp designs that are reportedly angular and sweep well into the front fenders (you can sort of see what we're talking about in the side profile). That doesn't sound very Jeep-like, but we'll reserve judgment until we, you know, see the thing.
The bigger question with the Liberty replacement will be whether or not its off-road chops will be up to snuff. After all, the two previous generations of Liberty models were body-on-frame traditional SUVs, whereas this new Jeep rides on a larger version of the Dodge Dart platform.
