1964 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4, 4-door, Chevrolet Small Block Sbc on 2040-cars
San Luis Obispo, California, United States
1964 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4 A running project, this 1964 Jeep Wagoneer has a chevrolet small block installed with two barrel rochester carburetor. The rest of the drivetrain consists of a T-86 three speed manual floor shift transmission, Dana 20 transfer case, and Borg Warner R10 (Rancho) overdrive. The overdrive is attached on the rear driveshaft only and will only function in two wheel drive. A larger than stock gas tank was installed at some point, but otherwise the rest of the chassis is stock. This jeep is all manual (no power steering, no power brakes, no power windows). Recently, the radiator was thoroughly cleaned (top tank removed, rod tubes, re-solder, leak tested, and painted). Other new parts:
Engine: The engine is a Chevrolet small block with deck suffix XCB (service replacement CE0A02T), the cylinder heads are late 60's double hump castings. I have found different information for the XCB code and it is either a 327 or a 350, but I don't know for sure. It is mounted to the chassis using a Hurst motor mount; this engine was installed in the late 1970's according to a previous owner. The engine runs well, sometimes a little puff of oil smoke when it starts. Exhaust exits through ram's horn manifolds and dual glasspacks. The exhaust system is old and not very pretty underneath, but does not have any noticeable leaks. Transmission: The transmission is a rebuilt T86 three speed, however the reverse gear does not work. This transmission was rebuilt by a gentleman in the Bay Area and was installed by myself, I have pulled the top cover on the transmission and could not find any obvious internal issue why reverse does not work (the shift fork was engaged, the gears appear to be in perfect shape although I cannot see the cluster gear to verify its condition). First gear does work, which is the same sliding gear as reverse (although reverse goes through the reverse idler). I would assume that the transmission needs to be removed and disassembled to fix this issue. The previously removed T86 comes with the jeep as well, although it is in very poor shape and I would assume that the only good part on it is the case and top plate. Body: The body has some rust as shown in the pictures. Part of the floorboards have been replaced (drivers side foot well), but the same spot on the passenger side needs to be replaced as well. There is also some rust along the edges of the floorboards near where they meet the body. The area behind the rear wheels needs to be replaced on both sides of the vehicle, and on the drivers side the area above the wheel has some small holes. On the roof, there is some rust in the drip rail on the front and back of the roof on both sides. It does not appear to go through the roof, on the drivers side only it was ground down to bare metal and was not through. There are some small bits of rust showing on the edge of the windshield gasket. Lastly, the area above the tailgate hinges has some rust. The only filler (bondo) that I can see on the body is in the tailgate. Another early tailgate is included, although it has other issues including a crease and bullet hole (but no rust). The extra tailgate also has the glass and winder mechanism. There is an extra set of bumpers that come with the truck as well. Two of the doors hinges are tight and will need some attention (maybe new pins). All doors and latches function. Interior: The interior needs to be completely redone. At some point, a later model interior was installed as shown in the pictures. Included is two rear seats (one early and one later model one) and one front bench seat (early model), there are door panels which are all late model. The window winder mechanism on the drivers side works, but the splines are damaged and will need attention. The headliner needs to be replaced and there are not any carpets. The dash is complete, but needs to be disassembled and repainted. Another heater control panel in very nice shape is also included. Other: The front axle is a dana 27, the rear is a dana 44. There are some unknown brand of locking hubs on the front axle, it has four wheel drum brakes. The wiring needs to be finished, a new fuse block was installed and some of the engine wiring was redone, but the majority of work still remains. When I acquired this jeep it had an electrical short and a lot of poor add-on wiring which I have completely removed, I did my best to keep the majority of the existing harness there. The tires have tread, but are cracked from age. There is a scratch on the front windshield where something got under the wiper blade on the passenger side. Extras: As previously mentioned, an extra tailgate, rear seat, transmission, bumper, heater control, and set of 4 centerline wheels are included. There are a few minor small parts that also come with the jeep. I will also offer a Muncie M20 transmission with adapter to Dana 18/20 transfer case and hurst shifter/linkage for an additional $500 on top of the auction close price to whoever purchases the Jeep if they would like it. Please note that this is a project car, and while I have done my best to accurately describe the condition there may be some small items that I missed. In-person inspection is recommended. Buyer is responsible for shipping, if required. $500 Deposit due within two days of auction close. Lastly, I reserve the right to end the auction early. |

Fiat Chrysler's Q3 profit boosted by strong North American earnings
Tue, Oct 24 2017MILAN, Italy — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) reported a 17 percent jump in third-quarter adjusted operating profit on Tuesday, helped by a strong performance in its key North American market and improving operations in Europe and Latin America. The world's seventh-largest carmaker still makes the lion's share of its profits in North America, so improving, or at least maintaining, its margins there is a key focus. The carmaker reported an 8 percent adjusted operating profit margin in the region, up from 7.6 percent a year ago, despite a drop in sales and shipments. "FCA's profitability in North America remained strong in the quarter despite a weakening market there," a Milan-based analyst said. FCA's profitability compares with an 8.3 percent North America margin reached in the quarter by bigger U.S. rival GM , showing CEO Sergio Marchionne making progress towards his goal of closing the margin gap with GM and the company's other U.S. rival, Ford, by 2018. The company's confirmation of its full-year outlook also pushed shares higher, a trader added. The stock was up 2.8 percent by 1129 GMT, outperforming a 1 percent rise in the European auto index. FCA has been retooling some U.S. factories to boost output of sport-utility vehicles (SUVs) and trucks while ending production of some unprofitable sedans to strengthen profitability as the U.S. car market comes off its peak. The company said a drop in North America shipments due to lower fleet sales and discontinued models was partially offset by higher deliveries of Ram trucks and two models from the Alfa Romeo stable: the Stelvio sport utility vehicle and Giulia sedan. Profitability also improved in Europe, helped by sales of the Stelvio and the new Jeep Compass, and Latin America, while margins at Maserati remained strong at 13.8 percent due to strong demand for its first SUV, the Levante. In a later conference call, investors are looking for hints on the new strategy to 2022 which the company promised to unveil early next year. Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne said earlier this year that FCA would streamline its portfolio and that components businesses, including Magneti Marelli, would be separated from the group, possibly via a spin-off. While FCA confirmed its targets this year, doubts remain about its exposure to a weakening U.S. market, recall costs and potential fines over emissions after it was targeted by European and U.S.
Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk
Mon, 13 May 2013Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Jeep appears to have nailed it this time. After two decades of assembling its Grand Cherokee sport utility vehicle, the American automaker has finally delivered a world-class off-roader capable of taking on everything in its segment - and more - with a high likelihood of coming out on top.
And if you drove last year's model, it's time to climb behind the wheel again as Jeep has significantly updated the SUV for 2014 with a bold new exterior appearance, an upgraded interior with enhanced electronics and a new transmission that completely transforms the way it drives.
We recently spent a full week with a dark blue 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4, a well-optioned model fitted with the standard gasoline-fed V6. While it didn't have the punch of the range-topping V8-powered SRT8, or the fuel-sipping economy of its new EcoDiesel sibling, the high-volume variant left us quite impressed.
