Original paint rust free Arizona 1986 Jeep CJ7

VIN: 1JCCF87E0GT010658

1986 Jeep CJ7 with a 4.2 liter engine and a 5 speed transmission.  The optional equipment on the Jeep are:  Air conditioning, Laredo package.  This Jeep was sold new in Palmdale California.  It spent until 2004 in California.  The last 10 years in Arizona.  The dry climate preserved the body.  There is no evidence of rust or body damage.  The CARFAX indicates there was an accident where an airbag deployed.  There is no airbag, and I find no evidence of body work or paint.  The truck has been sitting in a barn for over two years.  It could not pass emissions in California or Arizona.  The title is clean.  If you have ever read any of my vehicle adds you will know that I am brutally honest with my descriptions.  I do not flip cars for a living I have a full time business I am not an expert on Jeeps, but I am always happy to speak to someone if they have question. There are links below to a video of the Jeep driving, a walk around, and the engine running.  Also there is a link to over 100 pictures where I show the good bad and the ugly.  Please feel free to call me at 602-908-9267 with any questions.

Body/Tub- The tub of the jeep has no evidence of rust or body work. .  All of the original Sebring Red paint appears to be original.  The clear coat is almost totally gone on the hood and front fenders.  The stickers are very faded with small chips and scratches.  The passenger front fender has slight wrinkling on the top which is hard to see, and the camera would not pick it up.  There are small dents and bruises on the truck.  The interior of the tub is straight with scuff marks, but most of the original paint still shines.  The bottom of the tub is very clean.  Still shows a very thin layer of Sebring red over gray primer.  I belie all of the paint under the truck to be original.  Again no evidence of rust at all.  There is small amounts of undercoating on the tub, but it also looks original.

Interior-The cloth front seats and the back bench do not match.  The cloth is well used, but complete.  The back seat is in good shape.  All of the gauges work.  The radio has been relocated to Masterrac box in between the seats.  It works well with speakers in the dash and in the Masterrac boxes mounted on the rear fenders.  I have some of the keys for the boxes, but not all of them. Caret in the rear of the Jeep only.  Carpet is old and faded.  The under dash A/C has been removed.  The gauge in the radio slot is for the air pump system.  The A/C compressor is now used as a compressor with a small tank under the hood.  I tried to get it to work, but it appears to be non-operational.    Dash is clean with no cracks. The gauges in the dash work.  I’m not sure they are accurate but they operate.  The plastic bezel around the gauges is cracked.  The wiring under the dash is a bit of a spaghetti mess. 

Engine/Transmission/ Drive Train- the 4.2 liter engine appears to be completely original.  It cleaned up well, but it is in desperate need of a tune up.  My guess is a major tune up will get the Jeep close to passing emissions, but the catalytic converter is more than likely in need of replacement.  There is a small coolant leak coming from the upper radiator hose connection.  The Jeep ran hot the day I drove it to take pictures.  It was 109 degrees with 50% humidity so I was running hot as well.  In the pictures you can see the air pump system.  The nozzle is in the front grill.  The transmission shifts OK.  The clutch engages and disengages OK.  A little chatter from what I think is the throughout baring.  Four wheel drive engages.  4 High and 4 low appear to work as they are supposed to.  Please look at the link below to hear the engine running.  The locking hubs appear to work fine.

Chassis-We cleaned the bottom of the truck off  and painted the frame so it would not rust.  The chassis appears to be straight and original.  The lift is a 6” Superlift.  The shocks are Ranch RS 5000’s.  I do not know how old they are, but I suspect they have been on the truck a long time.  The tires are Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ’s.  They have no tread ware, but ate date coded 2007.  The aluminum wheels are scuffed and the center caps are bent up. 

I drove the truck about 20 miles.  It wanders and tracks poorly, but it runs good.   Acceleration is strong and shifts well. I am happy to let someone look at it if you want to inspect.  Please call me at 602-908-9267 if you have questions or want to take a look.  The type of cars I sell are Arizona rust free in nature.  This normally results in a great response and many times the auction ending early.  The Jeep is for sale locally so the auction could end if I receive a solid offer.

We drive the cars of Furious 7... in Forza Horizon 2 [w/video]

Thu, Apr 9 2015

On March 27, Turn 10 Studios, the folks behind the Forza Motorsport series, and Universal Pictures, the studio responsible for the Fast and Furious franchise, gave us a match made in heaven, announcing a "standalone expansion" featuring the two franchises. Called Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast and Furious, it features the cars from the latest film installment, unique missions and the voice-acting of Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, who plays tech guru Tej Parker on camera. A Fast and Furious video game? Seems like a no brainer. It gets better. Rather than limiting the Fast and Furious Edition cars to the expansion game, Turn 10 made them available through one of their (some may say notorious) downloadable content packages. Eight of the expansion's 11 cars were made available for just $4.99 (the only cars that weren't included were the Fast and Furious Edition Nissan GT-R, while the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and McLaren P1 are already available in-game). What's cool ais that the cars featured in both games are visually identical to the vehicles driven by the stars of Furious 7. Each in-game car has an on-screen parallel that plays a role in advancing the film's story. Considering that we're unlikely to score seat time in Dominic Toretto's real Dodge Charger, then, we figured we'd take to the game and test the car in the digital realm. We've got nine little cluster reviews, covering the cars both in the game and how they appear in the movies. And don't worry, there are no major spoilers here. Click on for the cars of Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast and Furious. 1970 Dodge Charger R/T Fast and Furious Edition Supercharged 7.2L V8 / 900 HP / 663 LB-FT The one vehicle that is mandatory in a Fast and Furious video game, Dom's hot-rodded 1970 Dodge Charger, is as much a character in the films as its driver. Furious 7 marks the fourth appearance of this Mopar beast in the series. Not surprisingly it's a handful to drive, wildly quick and with a four-speed transmission packed full of very tall gears. But beyond that, it's arguably the coolest of the FF Edition cars. This black beauty is exactly as it appears in the latest installment of the film, with the video game version featuring intricate little details, like the moving parts on the BDS supercharger. It's an iconic car, and it's treated as such in the game.

Jeep hackers return to take over your steering wheel

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Last year, security researchers Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek made headlines by remotely hacking a Jeep, killing the transmission and applying the brakes while Wired reporter Andy Greenberg was behind the wheel and driving in traffic. The hack led to a 1.4 million-vehicle recall for Fiat Chrysler and new jobs at Uber's Advanced Technology Center for Miller and Valasek. Despite the cushy new gigs, the two of them apparently aren't done hacking Jeep Cherokees for sport. In their latest exploit, the pair can gain even more control over a vehicle, but it would also be extremely difficult to pull off in a real-world setting. Here's the harrowing part first: Miller and Valasek can do more than just apply the brakes at low speed or cut the transmission this time around. Now they can turn on the parking brake, mess with the cruise control and hijack the auto-parking system to jerk the steering wheel a dangerous 180 degrees while the car is in motion. It looks about as frightening as it sounds: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Although it's not hard to see how that would make for a very terrifying drive, there's a big grain of salt that comes along with it: Miller and Valasek actually used the same model 2014 Jeep Cherokee as the original demonstration, but without the software patch applied. Or, as Wired put it, "imagine an alternate reality," where a fix had never been made. Unlike before, the latest hack requires a physical connection plugging their laptop into the Jeep's OBD-II diagnostic port under the dash. The team also had to update the Jeep with their own firmware to disable some of the car's built-in safety checks before they could get much control. In other words: In order to get hacked, Jeep owners would first need to roll back their car's firmware to an older version, invite someone to remove security features and then also let them ride shotgun with a computer. Or, as Engadget's resident security expert Violet Blue wrote on Twitter, it's sort of a non-threat. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

That said, The Verge points out that it may still be possible to exploit OBD-connected wireless dongles like the Metromile Tag, Automatic Link or other similar devices currently marketed by insurance companies.

Fiat Centro Stile sells design sketches to support kids in Italy

Sun, Jun 21 2020

Fiat's Centro Stile design studio in Europe has kicked off a project called stART Again to support the global charity Save the Children. The studio put 136 high-resolution sketches of Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Fiat Professional, Jeep, and Lancia vehicles for download online at just ˆ20 a pop — about $22. The proceeds from all sales will be donated to a charity founded in England 101 years ago "to improve the lives of children through better education, health care, and economic opportunities, as well as providing emergency aid in natural disasters, war, and other conflicts." Save the Children will use the funds to provide supplies, teaching materials, and support for studies for more than 100,000 children in the most disadvantaged areas of Italy who have been additionally harmed by the coronavirus and its effects. There are a heap of knockout drawings available. The selection at the Alfa Romeo store ranges from a 1958 Alfetta 158 racer to the coming Giulia GTA, classics in between including the immortal GTV 6 and the left-field 75 1.8 Turbo TCC racer. The Fiat marketplace contains wares from Abarth, Fiat, and Fiat Professional, with a massive emphasis on the new 500, but the hardcore 1972 Abarth 124 Spyder and oddball 900E van get slots in there (the 900E looks like a Volkswagen Vanagon, but the 900E came first). The Jeep shop is all business and big tires, save for the 1942 Willys MB, but someone needs to take the 1956 Jeep Forward Control sketch off the page and into reality. And the Lancia store has more to offer than the Stratos and Delta Integrale, an ominous Aurelia B20 GT and a Fulvia GT part of the five-model lineup. For some reason, Maserati got left out of the graphic bonanza, as did Ram, Dodge, and Chrysler, which is a shame. That still leaves 136 good reasons to click through and help the kiddies.
