This is a 1977 CJ-7 Jeep. I have a clean title and am the sole owner of this Georgia / Virginia vehicle, that is now in California. Started a ground up restoration 12-years ago. However, my priorities have changed since then (wife, house, three kids), thus its time to let her go (the Jeep). The vehicle has never sat outside - 100% garaged since start of restoration.

I have personally sandblasted and worked on every inch of this vehicle, replaced the minimal rust spots, smoothed primed and painted the frame with high-gloss black Imron paint. It shines! All the frame seams have been smoothed with seam sealer – this part is show ready!

The body is solid, no rust. Undercoated and various panels replaced. There is some filler on the cowl and engine bay that should be replaced (not my best work here). Also, it appears that some rust has bled through the seams on the front passenger side of body (ugh, see photos). I would rework these areas, otherwise, very smooth. The defroster, heater, top holes, door holes have all been filled for a smoother look.

Dana 20 rear with 3.54 gears. Completely rebuilt and has axle truss. New one piece rear axles with four wheel disc brake conversion kit from SSBC. Stainless steel brake lines, Rancho 9000 shocks. Looks brand new!

It has a Sky Jacker 4” lift kit with new poly body mounts. Heavy duty shackles. All rubber components replaced with red poly.

Warn front and rear bumpers, with one Mickey Thompson Baja II wheel with a BFG A/T 33 x 12.50 spare on Warn oversized tire carrier. Currently sits on old restoration tires.

Custom diamond plate dash with battery cut off switch (no key ignition), all Auto Meter electronic gauges, new speedo. It has a Flaming River tilt wheel column, new steering shaft and Grant Steering wheel. Heavy Duty AGR steering box and bracing. New steering linkage, steering stabalizer, etc.

Iron Horse high back bucket seats with racing harnesses, new bikini top, carpet, and role bar padding, center console.Most every bolt on the vehicle is stainless steel. Diamond plate gas and brake pedals, as well as trans tunnel cover. KC Lights, and new stainless side view mirrors, and backup lights.

Fiberglass one piece front end that tilts forward – this is an amazing feature. Custom diamond plate trim pieces, fiberglass windshield frame and new windshield (not installed). All new exterior trim / lights, etc.

Front is a fully rebuilt Dana 30 with all new front disc brakes, stainless steel brake line extensions and new warn hubs.. Again, every piece of metal has been replaced or sandblasted, primed and painted with the same high-gloss black Imron paint. Also has matching front axle truss.

Set up for Ford 302 motor with custom radiator bracing with high-flow aluminum Quick Flow radiator. Hella horns, electric dual fans. Has high flow fuel pump, new gas lines, etc.

This vehicle, while far along still has a ways to go. It needs an Engine, Transmission, transfer case, wiring harness and four wheels and tires and minor body work and paint to make it a real head turner.

I will entertain serious offers only. You will need to arrange transport from my home. The vehicle obviously does not run and therefore will cost more when transporting by professional hauler. I have hundreds of hours of labor and well over $20K into this vehicle. Its time someone finishes the job.

Please call me or email me with any questions. Gary - Eight Zero Five -259-5310 gmilgram "at" sbch.org

Radical 2016 Jeep Wrangler suggested by job listings?

Fri, 31 May 2013

With most inside the industry expecting the next-generation Jeep Wrangler to arrive for the 2016 model year, it makes sense that the automaker would be looking for some choice candidates to to fill program openings as the off-roader goes through its development. A recent ad on Chryslercareers.com suggests to some that the lightweight Wrangler Stitch Concept, revealed just two months ago and shown above, provides some clues about the off-road icon's next iteration.
According to Automotive News, the job descriptions - which don't name the model specifically - hint that the next-generation Wrangler will benefit from a serious diet. The ads appear to seek those familiar with advanced high-strength steels, hinting that lightweight aluminum body panels may appear on the 4x4. In addition, there are suggestions that Jeep may fit the Wrangler replacement with air suspension, as seen on the Ram and Grand Cherokee, to retain ample off-road clearance yet lower that chassis to improve aerodynamics at highway speeds. The job postings reportedly also lend credence to the idea of a diesel Wrangler.
It seems every bit of the next-generation Wrangler is up for review, as it will be the first time this iconic model is redesigned under Fiat ownership. Questions remain whether or not the Jeep will retain its clip-down hood, easy-to-remove door pins and folding front windshield - loyalists expect them, but fuel economy and safety standards may crimp their cases for survival.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Choose Your Own Adventure... But Choose Wisely
Jeep has got you covered. We can say this without even having to know what it is you want, because there's hardly an option or configuration that you won't find in the 2014 Grand Cherokee. There are three different engines, three different four-wheel-drive systems (plus rear-wheel drive), four different trim levels - not counting SRT - two different suspension setups and five different settings for various off-road terrain conditions. If you happen to check the box for Quadra-Lift, you'll also have five different ride-height settings for the driver-selectable air suspension.
As you might expect with so many customization possibilities, the way a buyer checks the options sheet can have a profound effect on the final product and its capabilities, to say nothing of its price. Nowhere is that more true than with the Grand Cherokee's choice of engines, with the brand-new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 stealing the spotlight from the still excellent gasoline-fueled 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8 powerplants that carry over from last year. No matter which engine you choose, though, it will be paired up with Jeep's new standard eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF. This, ladies and gentlemen, is very good news indeed.
