Up for sale is a 1979 Jeep Wagoneer and these are the original miles 85,002, I am the 3rd owner with my brother being the second owner. This Jeep hadn't been driven for quite sometime according to my brother before he bought at an auction, he was buying for his son. My brother had a bit of work done on it and here's what he said he had done to it,
all new belts & hoses
master cylinder
fuel tank & pump
u joints front end
cv joints front end
front & rear brakes
So when my nephew didn't want it I thought I'd buy it, so then I fine out I need to do more work and here's what I've done.
u joints rear end
new spark plugs and wires
fresh oil change
carb kit/float/adapter gasket/carb kit overhaul performed
driveline kit with lsh(75-90)750,325
driveline kit (gl4) 75w80 792 325
Has new tires and now it runs good!
It does have an exhaust leak but not worried about fixing it right now mostly because I can't afford too. This jeep is all original as far as I know except for parts listed proally. The windshield which I tried to capture one of the places looking like maybe a bb shot and anyway there is 3 spots like that but doesn't effect the view. Oh the other thing not orginal is the ignition he switched out because of it being loose? The other things my brother didn't tell me is the back hatch door doesn't open, I've tried but afraid of breaking it and I can't afford to fix. I also had a key made to lock and unlock doors because when he put new ignition in the orginal keys disappeared, went to lock smith to have that key made for doors. This has the orginal radio/am/fm/cb and the mic for cb is there also, I tried to show in the one picture.
There is some rust spots and I can't tell you much about but it's not in too bad of shape for it's year, really there's no dents or anything like that even my insurance agent couldn't believe the shape it was in. It has tow bar thing in the back and my brother said the 4x4 works(I haven't tried). I can't afford the gas in it and plus I think someone that is a jeep lover should buy and fix it to show condition.
Please ask questions and I will try to answer but most everything is listed.
oh and part of the grill is missing and the only tear in seats is the drivers seat.
you can call my home phone number or text to 816-383-1961 and please no calls or text's after 10pm.
for some reason up towards the title listing it says light blue and something about 50k, that's false and I can't get it off of here.
Also will except best cash offers, don't low ball with everything done to it!
FORGOT TO SAY IT RUNS REALLY GOOD AFTER ALL THE WORK DONE TO IT AND I'M CURRENTLY DRIVING IT, JUST FILLED UP WITH GAS FOR THE SNOW!
READY TO WHEEL & DEAL MAKE ME A REASONABLE OFFER!

100,000 Jeep Cherokee models subject to further 9-speed recalibration
Thu, 29 May 2014It seems that the software problems with the nine-speed automatic gearbox in the Jeep Cherokee continue to mount. The programming already caused multiple development delays and even postponed the Cherokee's market launch by roughly two months. Now, Jeep has issued another recalibration to hopefully assuage unhappy drivers.
According to Automotive News, this reflash for the allegedly jerky transmission covers over 100,000 Cherokees built before May 5, but it's not technically a recall. If owners are having problems and complain to the dealer, they get the new software. Otherwise, they continue with the current version. New vehicles on dealer lots also receive the latest revision to the programming. It takes only around five minutes to install, but technicians need to take the Cherokee on a test drive to adapt the gearbox to the changes.
The Cherokee's transmission software has been problematic practically since the beginning. The Jeep plant in Toledo, OH, briefly idled its second-shift workers last year to take care of the issue. Since the launch issues for the crossover, demand has been strong. Jeep added another 1,000 temporary workers to the Toledo factory to keep up, and sales were on par with the Wrangler in just its first two months.
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.

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017
Tue, Feb 17 2015Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).
