 Up for auction is a 1985 Jeep CJ7 Hard Top 6 cylinder 4 speed manual. Unmolested. This is a frame on restoration. The majority of the vehicle is factory original with the exception of the paint, seats, shocks, and carpet.
The Good -
  • Mechanically sound and everything mechanical operates as it should. All gauges, bulbs, and switches work. Starts right up, goes down the road straight, and stops on a dime.
  • The seats are all brand new BestTop vinyl and the carpet is also brand new (ACC DuPont cut pile in black)
  • Only 77,500 original miles
  • 1985 Sanyo high power cassette deck (refurbished) and 6x9 speakers in Sound Wedge boxes. Original paper behind speaker openings in the dash.
  • Perfect windshield. Perfect original dash pad.
  • New Duralast battery.
  • Many new lines, hoses, bulbs, and belts. All fresh fluids.

Things to know -

  • A very tiny drip at the rear main seal. Maybe a drip a day.
  • All 5 tires have less than 500 miles on them, but they do not all match. The spare tire may very well be the original spare, a standard Goodyear Wrangler. Three of the tires on the ground are Goodyear Wrangler APT. The fourth tire on the ground is a Goodyear Wrangler SRA. I have not changed them because the new owner may have their own preference in tires and tire size. All are original size 235 75r15.
  • Just a little bit of surface rust barely showing on the front fenders behind the tires (typical spot). It's not getting any worse is isn't very noticeable. Any other rust appears to have been removed or repaired. There is a new floor on the drivers side. I have another brand new one piece replacement but it isn't really needed at this time.
  • The paint is not original. It shines up very well with very few scratches, but there are a couple of little paint runs on those front fenders. The hard top has been painted black with texture. There is a spot on the very top where that paint peeled and was touched up. There is some over-spray from the new paint on the rear bumper that could probably be buffed off or have the bumper repainted, and a little bit on the edges of the dash.. I have new "Jeep" front fender stickers to go with it (paid $50) in case the new owner wants to clean up those fenders. I don't think that is worth doing yet.
  • I have all 5 chrome wheels, 4 are on the ground. The current spare wheel is a white factory wheel with a BestTop tire cover over it. The fifth chrome wheel would need to be polished and then mounted, but does come with this.
  • Needs rear seat belts.

This is a frame on restoration. It's not perfect but it needs very little and is suitable to be a daily driver. The paint job isn't perfect, but it's not too bad either. The frame is super solid without any rust at all. The underside has been painted and lightly undercoated. This Jeep went from Florida, to Kansas City, to Eastern Nebraska just a year or two ago which is why there is only very minor surface rust.

Please ask questions or come and see it. Message me and we can talk on the phone if you like. You need to ask questions! More pictures are available.

I will not deliver, but I will do my part on this end to help load or make it available for transport. For near locals, I may be able to meet you part way.

Only bid if you are serious and have the money to buy it.

A $1000 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of end of auction. The remainder of the balance due must be paid within 7 days.

I do not need any help selling this vehicle and this is not a must sell situation.

Jeep is for sale locally so it could be removed at any time before reserve is met. Reserve is set for what I have in it.

No warranty of any kind. As is.

Jeep Wrangler Red Rock concept brings Moab to SEMA

Wed, Nov 4 2015

Among the concepts that FCA is showcasing at SEMA this year, the Jeep Wrangler Red Rock concept has been decked out with accessories from both the Mopar and Jeep catalogs. The concept is based on the existing Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock edition, but has been taken even further in for this show truck. It pays tribute to the Red Rock 4-Wheelers club and the Easter Jeep Safari it hosts every year in Moab, UT. The Red Rock concept rides on a 2-inch lift kit with 17-inch beadlock wheels shod with 35-inch all-terrain tires. It also has differential covers, a reinforced swing gate and wheel mount, a power winch, LED headlamps and fog lights, and an onboard CB radio. To help it crawl those rocks, it boasts electronic locking differentials, a Rock-Trac transfer case, and Dana 44 solid axles front and rear. Visually setting this concept apart are such special touches as a power-dome hood, red tow hooks front and rear, new rock rails, a color-keyed grille with low-gloss inserts, low-gloss bumpers, and of course the requisite special badging. Inside it's been done up in brown leather with silver accents and a special grab-handle plaque. This particular version will remain a showpiece only. So if you want to see it, you'll have to head to the show floor in Vegas this week. However Jeep is committed to undertaking a production run of 50 examples with many of the same special touches to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Easter Jeep Safari next year.

eBay Find of the Day: Jeep Comanche Zombie Response Unit

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

We've seen some pretty fantastic apocalypse vehicles in our day. We've even owned one or two, but this particular Jeep Comanche tugs at our heart strings in all the right ways. Let's start with the basics: there's a stout 4.0-liter engine underhood hooked to a five-speed manual transmission, and while we wish this truck was four-wheel drive, the two-inch lift and oversize tires should help you overcome obstacles with enough momentum.
Details like handy shovels, Jerry cans and a brush guard inspired by the hardware on a CUCV help lend the truck a no-nonsense appeal, and the functional CB whip antenna means you can ask for backup when the undead hordes come your way. If you like what you see as much as we do, you can head over to eBay Motors to place a bid. The auction has inched up to $4,000 with just two days left on the clock.

Stellantis will build four electric vehicles in Italy, say union reps

Wed, Jun 16 2021

MILAN — Stellantis will produce four medium-segment electric vehicles, of different brands, at its Melfi plant in southern Italy from 2024, the UILM union said on Tuesday. Since Stellantis was formed at the beginning of this year through the merger of Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA, production in Italy has been under scrutiny for costing more than elsewhere in Europe. "Stellantis announced that Melfi would be the first plant in Italy to get new models, based on post-2022 business plan," UILM said in a statement after workers' representatives met with the carmaker at Italy's industry ministry in Rome. Future production at Melfi will be based on a single enhanced production line that will merge the two existing ones, the union said, adding the restructuring will leave production capacity at the site unchanged at around 400,000 units. UILM's head, Rocco Palombella, said unions had not received all the answers they wanted as Stellantis was still working on its new business plan. "But the positive element is that the company has not absolutely called for structural redundancies," he said after the meeting. Stellantis Chief Executive Carlos Tavares has said the group would present its business plan late this year or in early 2022. Stellantis, the world's fourth-largest carmaker, gave no details about what was discussed at the meeting. In an earlier statement the company said it was working "with determination and speed" to support the energy transition of all its Italian sites. Italy's Industry minister, Giancarlo Giorgetti, however, said in a separate statement after the meeting that Stellantis had yet to decide where it would build its third electric battery plant in Europe. Stellantis, which already has two battery factory projects in France and Germany, has said adding gigafactories in Europe and the United States would be decided this year. The company is holding talks on this with Rome, as Italy is one of its main production hubs in Europe. Related video: Green Plants/Manufacturing Alfa Romeo Fiat Jeep Citroen Opel Peugeot Stellantis
