Jeep: Cj Cj-5 Renegade 1979. 4" Lift, Roll-cage, Warn Winch, 33" Michelin Atx, on 2040-cars
Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
No Reserve Auction! Serious Bidders Only! Please. 1979 Jeep Cj-5 Renegade edition. This is a true AMC survivor with 75.5K miles. It has a 258 in-line six and a 3-speed manual transmission. Off-Road equipped with a four inch suspension lift, full roll-cage, vintage Warn 8274 winch, four 33" Michelin ATX tires mounted on rare American Racing Gambler rims. The spare is original to the Jeep. The high-backed seats, Bestop, and five point racing harnesses were installed by the previous owner around 1993 and they show their age. The driver's side seat is badly torn and needs a cover. The after-market top may have lead to the water collecting on the driver's side where the rust is worse. The roll-cage needs to be re-attached on the front left. I purched the Jeep in 2000 from a fraternity brother who had it @ Appilachian State University. He but new tires on it to sell it and I have managed to put just over 3,000 miles on it since then. I had the clutch rebuilt right before I stopped driving it regularly. I kept it running until 2009 when the brown rusty water started pouring out and it was overheating. Thanks to my father and a reconditioned battery we got her running again. I drove her around the block and backed her in, but not before she started running hot! She starts and runs but will need to be trailered. It has been parked under the cover of shade trees and can't even be seen on Google Earth! I hate to let her go, but we are expecting our second child soon and we are in need of something more family friendly. Happy Bidding!

Toledo mayor, Jeep champion Michael Collins dies from heart attack
Mon, Feb 9 2015The city of Toledo is mourning the loss of its mayor and the campaign to keep production of the Jeep Wrangler in the Ohio city has lost a champion after Michael Collins suffered a heart attack behind the wheel recently. Born, raised and educated in Toledo, Collins was a Marine Corps veteran and a city councilor. He was elected mayor in 2013 and assumed office on January 2, 2014, a little over a year ago. He was driving an SUV provided by the city in a snow storm on February 1 of this year when he suffered a heart attack and crashed into a utility pole. He remained in critical condition for days until he was taken off artificial life-support. During his relatively short term in office, Collins became an outspoken and energetic advocate of keeping the Jeep plant in Toledo, where it has been assembled for decades. The next-generation Wrangler is set to switch to aluminum construction, which could lead to moving its production to another location, but Collins (alongside Governor John Kasich and others) had worked hard to convince FCA US to keep it in town. Whether his efforts will prove successful remains to be seen, but our hearts go out to his friends, family and constituents. Michael is survived by his wife Sandy, three daughters and eight grandchildren. He was 70 years old.
Next Jeep Wrangler to get hybrid option?
Wed, Jan 21 2015This may the year a Jeep hybrid is officially announced. Really. The Chrysler division may finally be making plans for its first gas-electric powertrain to help boost the group's fuel economy, says UK's Auto Express, citing Mike Manley, CEO of FCA's Jeep division. The guinea pig of sorts may be the Wrangler, which moved almost a quarter-million units in the US last year. The Wrangler could get a hybrid drivetrain by the 2017 model year, as Jeep executives look to maintain the model's feel and torque while boosting its fuel economy. The Wrangler gets a pretty paltry 18 miles per gallon combined out of its six-cylinder mill, so the bar's set pretty low. Of course, we've heard this talk before. In late 2013, Chrysler Asia-Pacific product planning manager Steve Bartoli told Australia's Drive that a Jeep hybrid was pretty much inevitable, though not much has been mentioned since. FCA could use all the help it can get in the fuel economy department. The group brought up the rear among automakers when it came to fuel efficiency, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in its EPA Trends report released last October. The FCA models combined for a 21.1 miles per gallon average for the 2014 model year, compared to the 24.2 mpg overall industry average. The group's only electric vehicle in the US is the low-volume Fiat 500e, though the company may start selling a plug-in hybrid version of its Chrysler Town & Country by the end of the year.

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment
Mon, 07 Jan 2013When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
