1986 Jeep Cj-7 Renegade Original Rare Rust Free Survivor Hard Top on 2040-cars

Year:1986 Mileage:48822
Location:

Roswell, Georgia, United States

Roswell, Georgia, United States

Up for auction is my 1986 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade - Original, rust free survivor!  Last year of the CJ-7! 

Reserve is WELL BELOW the market on this CJ!  I am listing TO SELL, not for my health!  You're not wasting your time bidding on this listing! 

This CJ has the rarest interior color of all non special edition CJ7's -  Garnet!  

I purchased this rare piece of automotive history in December of 2013 out of Amarillo Texas with 48k original miles. (After looking for it for 2 years)

I had the Jeep extensively checked out by a local dealer, and per their recommendation, I had all differential fluids changed, rear brakes replaced (with brake seals), engine oil & transmission fluid replaced, coolant & coolant hoses were replaced, as well as having it tuned up.  This is a 'no apologies' CJ! 

I have never noticed any leaks on the Jeep, and would have no issue driving it cross country.  (And back) 

This CJ has the 258 inline 6 cylinder (4.2 liter) with the extremely high demand T-176 4 speed transmission backing it up, with an AMC 20 rear axel.  The Jeep cranks easily, idles smooth, and drives perfect.  The T-176 shifts great, with the throws tight and notchy, and the Power Steering make the Jeep effortless to control.

The paint and decals appear to be completely original.  The paint's clear coat is chipping on the hood, and the hood also has with 2 paint chips on it, with just the normal amount of wear and tear elsewhere.  The cowl's paint is thinning - but not bad at all.  (Please remember this is a survivor). The Renegade decals are bright, correct, and in nice condition for their age.  

As best as I can tell this Jeep was equipped from the factory with the hard doors, and a soft top.  (It has the proper 'vent window dash pad' that only comes on a hard door CJ) The doors are still in good shape, and the windows operate smoothly.  The soft top was swapped out long ago for what appears to be a YJ Hard top, and it is in very good condition.  (No cracks in glass or fiberglass damage) 

The floor pans, windshield frame, cowl, and under the roll bar, are all solid as a rock. (Light surface oxidation under drivers feet) 


Please do not bid on this CJ if you're just planning on turning it into rock crawler, parting out the interior, or slathering the tub with cheap 'do it yourself' bed liner.  This Jeep is the very last year of the most iconic vehicle in American history, and deserves a new owner that will treat it as such.  Reserve is WELL BELOW market and I will assist you if you wish to ship this Jeep.  $500.00 deposit via PayPal upon completion of this auction, with the remainder within 4 business days.  Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you would like to view it in person. 

Happy bidding!

Jeep Liberty under investigation for door fires

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

The Jeep Liberty has already had plenty of attention for possible fires thanks to the first-gen model's fuel tank, but now the midsize Jeep is under the microscope of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for another fire-related concern. NHTSA has opened an investigation for the 2012 Liberty after receiving two reports of electrical fires in the driver's door.
According to the investigation summary, around 80,000 vehicles could potentially be affected by this problem. In both reported fires, the drivers noticed smoke and then flames from the master power window switch, and they had to pull to a stop and exit through the passenger side of the SUV. According to Autoguide, there was one injury to a motorist who suffered burned fingers while trying to open the driver's door.
Interestingly, the Dodge Nitro is not yet involved in this investigation, even though it was still around for the 2012 model year; the Nitro ended production in 2011 about a year before the final Liberty rolled off the line for the 2013 model year. Scroll down for the official NHTSA investigation summary.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel and SRT climb onto stage

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that.
For starters, the 2014 Grand Cherokee marks the return of a diesel model here in the States, with Chrysler's new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 under the hood, churning out 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, all of the Grand Cherokee's usual off-road goodies are on hand, with moderate tweaks to make it an even more capable vehicle when the going gets rough. Both the gasoline-fed 3.6-liter V6 and 5.7-liter V8 get the new eight-speed auto, as well.
The high-performance Grand Cherokee SRT also trudges on into the new model year, with very subtle tweaks found underneath the aggressive, slightly redesigned sheetmetal. The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 also gets eight-speed gearing, which Chrysler says will improve not only 0-60 times, but mid-range performance as well. Bring it on, we say.
