Im a retired collision shop owner who stills enjoys building hot rods and unique cars and trucks. I bought this truck last year from a farmer whos family purchased it brand new,most of its life was right there on the farm,hence the low miles (114k) .It had been used as a farm truck so it had its share of dents and dings especially the roof and box sides however it had a bedliner in it since new so the box was in great shape (pic included before paint) .It also had some rust not so much on the body but on the lower unibody rails. So i took some ques from Jeepspeed.com (a famous pre-runner and off-road desert racing builder) and rebuilt and added substantial strength to the undercarraige for any future race use.(see pics)...At one point i was going to add a cage and decided not to as to cut the cab and box that was in such great shape. Also at about that point in the build i just decided to simply finish it as it was becoming a lot of work. It has a complete color change base coat /clearcoat ,brand new helo wheels,new ,kenda kevlar tires (30x9.50x15),new Rustys 3in.springs,shocks,i fabricated frt and rear pre-runner bumpers,did just a mild tune and put a new muffler on and recently had it inspected and licensed for the road. I thought id list it to start a 1933 hot rod project however it makes a cool shop truck thats good on gas ...so if it doesent sell it wont hurt to keep it around! The interior is very nice and completly original with the addition of a sony explode mp3,and cd. If you have any qustions feel free to call 585-329-0167 Randy....Its raining hard this morning will add several pics as soon as the sun comes out

2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic
Tue, 15 Jan 2013Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks yet.
Both will roll with a proper six-speed automatic transmission, courtesy of PowerTech. Noise-resistant gears and tuning by Chrysler boffins should alleviate the unappealing sounds that were given off by the older CVT. Unless, that is, you choose to have either model equipped with Freedom Drive II; the serious off-road package, available on both baby Jeeps, will still come with the CVT. The base transmission on the entry-level Sport trim remains the five-speed manual.
Otherwise, it's minor changes for the Compass, set off by the new 18-inch wheel option, trim pieces around the car and a back-up camera. The Patriot gets seat-mounted airbags, but is carryover otherwise. With their expected demises perhaps a year away, not much has changed otherwise. Engine choices comprise the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque or the 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.
Chrysler nets $1.6B income in Q4, Fiat profit up 5%
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Chrysler announced its 2013 financial results today and unveiled its new name and decidedly bank-like logo. Amid the announcement, Chrysler posted big gains in income, while Fiat didn't perform to analysts' expectations.
For 2013, Chrysler had revenue of $72.1 billion, up 10 percent from 2012. Net income reached $2.8 billion, a 65-percent increase. It was the company's third straight year of annual profits.
In terms of unit sales, Chrysler sold 2.4 million cars worldwide in 2013, up 9 percent. According to Automotive News, 1.8 million of those vehicles were sold in the US, a 14-percent increase. The sales growth boosted Chrysler's US market share to 11.4 percent, up 0.2 percent.
Chrysler recalls 2013 Ram pickups, 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Wed, 17 Jul 2013Chrysler's spate of successful products is about to be marred by a trio of recalls. The Pentastar is recalling 51,477 Ram trucks and Jeep SUVs. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there have been no reported accidents, injuries or deaths related to the affected vehicles.
The largest action covers the Ram 1500, which is seeing 45,961 trucks being recalled. Models built between June 26, 2012 and February 5, 2013 are being recalled due to a potential software issue in the electronic stability control. Apparently, the system can be randomly deactivated upon vehicle startup.
Chrysler is also recalling 4,458 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee models. Covering everything but the SRT models, the potentially defective SUVs were built between January 14 and March 20, 2013. This recall focuses on "premium headlights," which means cars equipped with LED running lights. During the switch from the bright daytime running lamp setting to the low-intensity parking light setting, an electrical spike can cause one of the Jeep's computers to go into a safe mode, turning off the LEDs. This violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
