1969 Jeep (Kaiser) Wagoneer. Very desirable Series 1. Avocado Mist Green. Rebuilt but original Buick 350 (For those of you that don't know, Kaiser used Buick motors in the jeeps they produced). Stock rebuild with 2 BBL carb 230HP and 350FTLBS torque. Has electric fan installed. Turbo 400 trans (rebuilt) and Dana 20 transfer case. Stock axles with 3.73 gears and Power drum brakes. Very original body with a repaint in the past. The clearcoat is faded and has the perfect patina. There is a small amount of rust behind the rear tires. Please look at pics. The floors are solid only having some pitting which was sanded and treated with rust dissolver then painted. The interior is amazing. All original dashboard with am radio (not working). New carpet and custom floor mats. Interior Lights work, heat, fan etc. Rear seat is original, only the front  seat has been upholstered with new foam and springs.  However I did reuse some of the original material on the seat back to make it match the rear. I also made custom rear compartment panels with access doors and a light and 12V outlet. The door panels are in amazing shape only requiring a lower kick panel carpet (also custom made). The original headliner is also 98% perfect. The rear window is power. It works great going down, but does require some help getting back up.

The suspension has been lifted 4" with New Alcan springs (one of the best in the business) and longer shackles in front. All new Rancho shocks and steering stabilizer. I mounted a set of original (my personal stash) Kelsey Hayes 15x9 Wheels. These are the early production riveted ones. They have been sand blasted and powder coated white. They have a new set of 31x10.50x15 Falken Radials. I did have to run 1.5 billet wheel spacers to clear the brakes. For safety I welded in longer wheel studs on all 4 corners. You can tell at some point the drivers front tire had come loose and dented the fender. I ground out the bondo, used a body hammer and dolly, straitened the spot and never repainted it. I like the way it looks, however you people who live in rust areas will probably want to paint that spot. The previous owner did install a later model Wagoneer roof rack. I personally don't like it on this truck so I removed it. It will be included in the sale. There are bolts in the roof where it was mounted. They do not leak, but they are there (so you know).

The motor and drivetrain are all stock other than a 2.5" custom exhaust with a Flowmaster muffler. Has a great sound. Not to loud but sounds like a 70's Buick muscle car. This Wagoneer gets thumbs up everywhere I go. I do love the patina. However I am offering this up for sale pre-paint and body. I do have a set of lower rear quarter replacement panels that I will include with the sale if the buyer wants them. 

This Jeep runs great!! drives smooth and strait. Sounds awsome and the trans shifts firm. The 4WD works great also. She is a Blast to cruise in and take four wheeling!! It has been in the desert many times!! Has the paint and scratched to prove. However it does have DRUM brakes. They are powered but still stops like a drum brake vehicle. BJ's Offroad does offer a disk brake conversion for the front brakes. If you think that this is something you would like, we can figure a price for the parts and labor and I can install before shipping the vehicle.

Please note that the underside has NOT been spray-bombed in black. This is original and unpainted and CLEAN!! There are also factory chalk marks on the side of dash and under hood!! The title reads 0 miles (yes zero). Typical Arizona DMV stuff. The odo reads 25k but no proof of mileage. She seems to be a LOW mileage rig, based on the interior and undercarriage.

I am offering pre-paint for someone wanting that Patina look @ $9500.00 Add a green skirt hula dancer on the dash and a surfboard rack and your set!!

I do restore Jeeps, I am not a dealer but more of a out of control hobbyist. Please look at my website.

www.thejeepfarm.com or call 602.763.3505 DREW

Shipping is up to the buyer. I will deliver the Jeep to any shipping company in the Phoenix area at no charge. I do require a 500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hrs of close of deal. I will accept paypal for the deposit only. Remainder of the payment must be in cashiers check, money order or we can set up a wire transfer into a temp account. The Jeep does not leave my possession until funds have cleared the account. I have sold and shipped Jeeps all over the US with great success. I have described this rare Wagoneer as best I can. It is a old Jeep so expect it to be so. BUT MAN WHAT A WONDERFULL JEEP!!!  A true addition to anyone's collection. Please do not hesitate to call with any questions. I can also send pics of any areas you wish to see.

Thanks again. Please look at my website and Call if you have any questions

Chrysler says its 8-speed transmissions will save 700 million gallons

Thu, Jun 19 2014

Chrysler Group's TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission could be earning some serious green bragging rights if the company's projections are correct. The recently widely proliferated automatic gearbox, which is now in more than a million vehicles around the world, is poised to save drivers an estimated 700+ million gallons of fuel over the vehicles' lifetimes (an expected cost savings of $2.5 billion). In addition, Chrysler expects a reduction in CO2 emissions by more than six million metric tons. According to Chrysler, and depending on the vehicle, the TorqueFlite can improve fuel economy. The TorqueFlite autobox features particularly close ratios from fifth to eighth gear (see the press release below for the specific numbers), and uses low-viscosity fluid that doesn't need to be replaced. Transmission software adapts to the driving situation to optimize efficiency based on driver behavior, temperature, grade, stability control, and longitudinal and lateral acceleration. The TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. As evidenced by the wide range of vehicles Chrysler Group has seen fit to equip with the eight-speed transmission, the TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. Since its 2012 introduction, the TorqueFlite has gone from performing cog-swapping duties in Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 models equipped with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 to changing gears in vehicles such as the Pentastar- and Hemi-powered Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and even the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. For the 2015 model year, the eight-speed is finding its way into even more vehicles with the addition of a third version. In addition to the American-made TorqueFlite 845RE and 8HP70, the new 8HP90 will be manufactured in Saarbrucken, Germany. The 8HP90 is designed for higher torque loads, making it ideal for high-performance vehicles like the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The already-in-use 8HP70 will expand its duties to be used in 2015 Hemi models such as the Dodge Charger, Challenger, and Challenger SRT8. You can see the list of those benchmarks in Chrysler's press release below.

NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.

Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
