I am a small time used car dealer that seeks out older exceptional vehicles. I am also a Jeep guy at heart, having driven one for the last 15 years. Even better I drove a Cherokee for about 7 of those years! If you have a (Jeep Guy) question don't hesitate to ask.
This 1987 is pretty exceptional. It has the 4.0L with AW4 automatic transmission, and NP231 transfer case. It even has the hard to find factory dana 44 rear end. It shows 147K miles on the odometer and just eyballing this thing you can see it is legit. You would be hard pressed to find another like this anywhere.
The interior on it looks as if it has been completely reupholstered but in fact is just amazingly well kept. I did have the headliner replaced to make it near perfect. The only interior flaw I am aware of is a piece of trim on the drivers seatbelt is broken. With that in mind I would rate the interior a 9.5 out of 10.
Mechanically the jeep is in pretty good shape. It was tuned up, fuel pump was replaced, and deteriorated vacuum lines were repaired or replaced as needed. New shocks were added as well. It does have the minor oil seepage associated with 4.0L engines but nothing that requires adding oil between changes. I would not hesitate to drive this anywhere and have personally took it on several weekend trips of 2-300 miles. The only thing it would need to be 100% mechanically is to fix an exhaust leak. Nothing major, personally I wouldn't bother but I am trying to be as forthcoming as possible.
Exterior is exceptionally straight, not even a door ding to be found. The paint is showing it's age but it is still quite presentable. Pictures of the slight oxidation was hard to capture due to the silver color hiding it so well. Glass is all in good shape. When I bought it, it had the most horrendous 80's style hubcaps you can imagine. I replaced these with factory jeep chrome steel wheels from a later model jeep. They greatly improved the looks while keeping a near factory appearance. The front tires are a good matching pair (70%?) of 235/75/15 Goodyears, the rear tires do not match but are the same size and are in serviceable condition. This seems like a southern jeep, there is no rust to speak of anywhere and nothing to suggest it has been offroad at all.
Jeep has facotry stereo, smoothly operating power windows, locks, cruise, and cold air conditioning. Jeep is located in Benton, Arkansas half an hour from Little Rock National Airport. I would not hesitate for a moment to fly in and drive this thing to any part of the country.
You can reach me by phone 9-6 M-F at 501-778-2113 and I will do my best to answer any questions. Again, I am a Jeep guy and will know what you are talking about!

Refreshed Chrysler 300 SRT won't be sold in NA
Mon, 20 Oct 2014It looks like it might be time to bid farewell to the V8 rumble from the Chrysler 300 SRT - at least if you live in North America. The reported change comes as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles reshuffles its ranks with the Dodge brand, re-absorbing SRT and building its muscular reputation with the Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Meanwhile, Chrysler is taking a more mainstream approach, and that likely means the end of overt high-performance models from the division for now.
According to Automotive News, the 300 SRT will be discontinued in the US for 2015, but it won't be totally dead. Some right-hand drive markets will still get the brawny V8 sedan next year, a distinction that goes a long way toward explaining some spy shots we've seen recently.
The 300 SRT's North American demise probably shouldn't come as a total shock. In FCA's five-year plan, it says that the 300 is destined for a refresh to be unveiled later this year, presumably at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show. There's no mention of the SRT model in the document, though, which seems to signal its end.
Europe gets Jeep Wrangler Polar limited edition
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Jeep will be bringing an all-new, limited-edition model to the European market called the Wrangler Polar. Based on the Wrangler Sahara and set to make its debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Wrangler Polar sports new Hyrdro Blue paint, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a body-color hardtop, and the regular mix of Mopar styling accessories. Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are available for those that don't dig the glossy blue, while a two-door variant will be available in addition to the four-door pictured above.
The Polar's interior features similar tweaks; Pearl White contrast stitching can be found on both the seats and steering wheel, while ceramic White bezels and other accents give a nice contrasting look to the cabin.
Underhood sits an engine that should make American Wrangler enthusiasts weep - a 2.8-liter, four-cylinder turbodiesel. With 200 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque channeled through a five-speed automatic transmission, the Wrangler Polar should handle itself just fine on normal roads. British buyers will also be able to select the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. For rougher stuff, Dana axles can be found front and rear (Dana 30 up front and Dana 44 in back), while the Command-Trac four-wheel-drive system and its two-speed transfer case should be enough for when the roads disappear.
Stellantis wants to outfit cars with AI software to drive revenue
Tue, Dec 7 2021MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis announced a strategy Tuesday to embed AI-enabled software in 34 million vehicles across its 14 brands, hoping the tech upgrade will help it bring in 20 billion euros ($22.6 billion) in annual revenue by 2030. CEO Carlos Tavares heralded the move as part of a strategy that would transform the car company into a “sustainable mobility tech company,” with business growth coming from features and services tied to the internet. That includes using voice commands to activate navigation, make payments and order products online. The company is expanding existing partnerships with BMW on partially automated driving, iPhone manufacturer Foxconn on customized cockpits and Waymo to push their autonomous driving work into light commercial vehicle delivery fleets. StellantisÂ’ embrace of artificial intelligence and expansion of software-enabled vehicles is part of a broad transformation in the auto industry, with a race toward more fully electric and hybrid propulsion systems, more autonomous driving features and increased connectivity in automobiles. Ford and General Motors also are banking on dramatically increased revenue from similar online subscription services. But the automakers face immense competition for monthly consumer spending from movie and music streaming services, news outlets, Amazon Prime and others. Stellantis, which was formed from the combination of PSA Peugeot and FCA Fiat Chrysler, said the software would seamlessly integrate into customers' lives, with the capability of live updates providing upgraded services over time. New products will include the possibility to subscribe to automated driving features, purchase usage-based car insurance or even increase the power of the vehicle with a tune-up to add horsepower. As a baseline, Stellantis generates 400 million euros in revenue on software-generated services installed in 12 million vehicles. To meet the targets, Stellantis will expand its software engineering team of 1,000 to 4,500 in North America, Asia and Europe. More than 1,000 of the expanded team will be retrained in house. Stellantis also announced a new partnership with Foxconn to develop semiconductors to cover 80% of the companyÂ’s needs and simplify the supply chain. The first microchips from the partnership are targeted to be installed in vehicles in 2024.
