1964 cj5 Tuxedo Park Mark IV. Tuxedo Park is a trim package in the eary 60's which included chrome bumpers, which are almost impossible to find (these have a $2000 re-chrome job), chrome column gear shifter, 60/40 splint front bench seat. Almost every nut bolt and washer has been replaced with either stainless steel or hardened on the whole jeep (motor, transmission, transfer case, chassis, and body) looks really neat. Everything has been rebuilt, replaced, cleaned and painted except the red body paint which has a great patina. Anybody can put on a shiny new tub but this thing has character. Could have it clear coated but I just keep thick coat of wax applied. Body does have some rust - in front of door openings as seen in pic. Floor pan has some holes - but cleaned and painted, see pic. Looks like someone hit the spare tire carrier and tried to patch, see pic. It took 50 years to get this way - should last a lot longer now that it's all painted. Very good condition for an original unmolested jeep. Front fenders have a little denting - rumor has it that it hit a cow. Lived it's life in North Mississippi and Alabama. Axles, frame, and drive shafts cleaned and painted. Transmission blasted painted and rebuilt. Transfer case blasted and painted and new seals. Motor not rebuilt but runs good except a little exhaust valve leak - no oil leaks, blasted and painted. New water pump, oil lines, alternator, battery. Rebuilt steering box and new tie rod ends. All new brake system. New exhaust system which is ceramic coated. Tires are not new, ok but some cracking. No parking brake. Finally found a NOS speedometer (after a year of looking) can buy a new version but it doesn't look like the original. Gauges and speedo works (reads a little fast) with new speedo cable. NOS Sparton self canceling turn signal switch. New windshield frame and gasket. All new springs, bushing, and shackles. New upholstery, floor mats, new steering wheel, horn button, and horn. Stainless rear view mirror and tail lights. Heater and windshield wipers are not installed - I do have them. No top, or spare tire. Great looking - everyone has to comment on it. Call, text or email with any questions 901 483 3395. Thanks, Bill. For sale locally, reserve the right to end early. May add more if I thing of anything. Mileage is inaccurate - old speedo was working showing 64k but title listed as mileage unknown.

FCA to appeal reduced judgment in Georgia Jeep case

Thu, Aug 13 2015

FCA is appealing the $40 million verdict against it in a case in Georgia where a four-year-old boy died in a fire in a Jeep Grand Cherokee, according to The Detroit News. The jury originally awarded the child's family $150 million, but the judge decided to significantly to reduce the amount based on other precedents. The automaker has been considering further legal options since the decision was announced in July. The boy's death happened in 2012 when he was riding in a Grand Cherokee. The vehicle was rear-ended, and the fuel tank burst, causing a fire. This is the same issue that led to a recall of millions of the SUVs and a recent agreement with the US government from FCA to pay to get them fixed. In the original ruling, the jury said that the automaker was 99 percent responsible for the fatality and didn't adequately warn owners. It asked the company to pay $120 million for wrongful death and $30 million for his pain and suffering. FCA countered that the Jeeps met the safety standards of the time they were made. FCA requested that the jury's award be reduced in May calling the amount "grossly excessive." If the family didn't agree to a lower amount, the company also threatened to seek a new trial. Among the arguments was that $30 million was too much for the child's one minute of suffering. The parents did accept the judge's adjusted figure, though.

Jeep Renegade sales being held due to powertrain issue [UPDATE]

Wed, May 20 2015

UPDATE: An unnamed FCA US source has clarified to Automotive News that while there is a software issue, it does not concern the transmission. The Jeep Renegade appears to be facing early software problems that are similar to the ones at the introduction of the Cherokee a few years ago. The issue is keeping the brand's latest compact crossover away from dealers until the situation can be resolved. The fault reportedly deals with the software controlling the Renegade's nine-speed automatic transmission. FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne briefly talked about what was happening in an interview with Automotive News. "I'm having a very bad engineering day," he said. "It's a combination of attributes of that vehicle that is making my life horrible." The company boss predicted at the longest it could take until mid-June to fix things. Through April, Jeep has sold 5,157 Renegades, including 4,214 of them in that month alone. Autoblog reached out to an FCA US spokesperson to learn more about the software problem, but the company had no comment. Getting the software right to control the nine-speed automatic plagued development of the Cherokee. The issues delayed the model's launch in 2013, and the company was still releasing improvements for some vehicles this year.
