1980 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4 Amc 360 No Reserve!!!lowered Starting Price on 2040-cars
Elgin, Illinois, United States
Link to over 30 Hi-res photos. http://imgur.com/a/nvHKi . Jeep is for sale locally as well. I reserve the right to end the auction early. 1980 Jeep Wagoneer. 3rd owner. Purchased in December '13 from Montana as a project. Runs and drives fine. Brakes work. All power options. Burgundy Vinyl interior. Was originally White w/woodgrain but was painted by previous owner. AMC 360 runs great, needs choke adjusted. 727 3 speed automatic trans. NP208 transfer case(part-time) trans shifts like its supposed to, and the 4wd works great. Dana 44 front, AMC20 rear(not sure of the gearing). Has dealer installed travel tank(secondary fuel tank). General tires with lots of tread. Had 48700 miles when I got it shipped here, but the speedo cable was not hooked up. Replaced it and its at 49000 miles now but the last time I was home it stopped working(I think the cable may have frayed from the angle through the firewall, but it did work). Body has maybe 2 or 3 very small spots with surface rust, but no rust through. A couple dings here and there. Frame is nice, and so are the edges all around underneath(Flares, body edges, etc.).Trim is all there and most chrome is good, maybe a few spots here and there that aren't great(it is a 34 year old truck, but I have extra parts available for most of the bad stuff(roof rack slats, tail light, bumpers, etc.) Paint is ugly. Interior isn't terrible, but the door panels are showing their age. seats are nice except for two tears on the back seat from a roof rack that a previous owner had in the backseat. Could use new carpet, but it looks like the front carpet has been replaced already at least once. headliner is nice and firm but has a few cigarette burns and small stains. most of the trim is there and in decent shape, it needs a reflector piece for the drivers side arm rest, and a door pull and some minor odds and ends, but I've seen a lot worse interiors. dash is nice except for a hole where there's what looks like speaker grating in the middle of the dash on top(see pictures). Windshield is cracked. Power locks not working, rear passenger window not working. driver side rear window works but may be off track. A/C has been converted to r134 already. Cruise control not working(I believe this is because the speedo cable is not hooked up) I bought this truck as a project, and spent the last 6 months gathering parts for it, but getting parts is easier than replacing them. I drive a truck for a living, and the 1 week I might get off in a given month just isn't enough time to devote to it, so I'd rather sell it than leave it sit and rust. It's not perfect and it's got its bumps but It runs and drives, and really it's only about 10% from being perfect, but that last 10% is the really expensive stuff(paint, interior). Honestly if you put another 4 or 5 grand into this thing it would be as good or better than anything they're selling on Wagonmasters. It just needs someone with the time to do it, or the money to make it someone else's problem. I plan on selling all the spare parts I've accumulated to cover the rest of the money I've spent, but if you buy the Jeep and would like some of the parts, I'm sure we can work something out. ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID. NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. VEHICLE IS SOLD AS-IS WHERE-IS. IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO JUDGE AND EVALUATE THE VEHICLE ON HIS/HER OWN. VEHICLE HAS BEEN DESCRIBED TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE. WINNING BID REQUIRES $500 DEPOSIT IMMEDIATELY AT END OF AUCTION AND FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 72HRS. I CAN PROVIDE SOME SHIPPING QUOTES TO THE WINNING BIDDER, BUT AS A RULE IT WILL PROBABLY COST BETWEEN $800-$1100 TO THE LOWER 48 STATES DEPENDING ON WHAT PART OF THE COUNTRY YOU ARE IN. *UPDATES: Title is clean and clear, has new shocks installed and has a new battery. other work done; New 4 barrel AMC intake manifold with freshly rebuilt Motorcraft 4350 Carb(idle needs adjustment) Brand new manifold back exhaust. All new vacuum lines and hoses. new Water Pump, new Fuel Pump, new plugs and plug wires, new solenoid and cables/wires new belts, new filters and oil change, new windshield wiper fluid pump, 6 speakers and a cd player in here(installed by previous owner). I will also be including some extra parts for it that are specific to the jeep. I have a set of pads and shoes, and a fuel filter, new U-joints, a 1.5in add-a-leaf for the rear end and some other stuff that comes with the jeep. |

Jeep Renegade sales being held due to powertrain issue [UPDATE]
Wed, May 20 2015UPDATE: An unnamed FCA US source has clarified to Automotive News that while there is a software issue, it does not concern the transmission. The Jeep Renegade appears to be facing early software problems that are similar to the ones at the introduction of the Cherokee a few years ago. The issue is keeping the brand's latest compact crossover away from dealers until the situation can be resolved. The fault reportedly deals with the software controlling the Renegade's nine-speed automatic transmission. FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne briefly talked about what was happening in an interview with Automotive News. "I'm having a very bad engineering day," he said. "It's a combination of attributes of that vehicle that is making my life horrible." The company boss predicted at the longest it could take until mid-June to fix things. Through April, Jeep has sold 5,157 Renegades, including 4,214 of them in that month alone. Autoblog reached out to an FCA US spokesperson to learn more about the software problem, but the company had no comment. Getting the software right to control the nine-speed automatic plagued development of the Cherokee. The issues delayed the model's launch in 2013, and the company was still releasing improvements for some vehicles this year.
Hank the Autodog takes a ride in the long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee
Wed, May 13 2015Autoblog readers, meet Hank, my 40-pound, six-year-old Shar Pei and Staffordshire Terrier mix, a combination also known as a Pit Bull. Pit Bulls and car enthusiasts have a lot in common. They're a little intimidating to your average man on the street, but at the end of the day all they want to do is feel the breeze in their ears. Dogs who love car rides are the ultimate enthusiasts, and Hank especially is a canine connoisseur of cars. There is nothing Hank likes more than to hop in and go for a ride. With an owner like me, he has developed refined tastes when it comes to cars. As our long-term Jeep Cherokee is about to leave the Autoblog Garage, and since the weather is warming back up, it's the perfect time to give our Autodog one last spin in his favorite Jeep. We wanted to see what a car ride looks like from a dog's perspective. Luckily, we have a cache of GoPros and plenty of cars on hand to give Hank one last chance to go for a window-down ride. After many pets, treats, and drives around town, we put together this video montage of Hank's best day ever.
NHTSA investigating 2015 Jeep Cherokee after new owner's total-loss fire [w/video]
Fri, Jan 16 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2015 model year Jeep Cherokee after a single example caught on fire in California. This investigation will decide the cause, scope and frequency of this possible problem and will decide whether a recall is necessary for 50,415 potentially affected examples. According to Automotive News, the Cherokee's owner only purchased the CUV about two days before the fire, and it had been driven less than 100 miles. The new buyer reported parking the Jeep, and noticed a smell like smoke. Shortly after, the vehicle was consumed in flames. There were no injuries, but much of the incident was captured on video. NHTSA is also trying to decide whether another report is related. In this case, a driver noticed smoke under the hood of a 2015 Cherokee with just 45 miles on it, while driving at 60 miles per hour. According to the complaint to the agency, "the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired," but FCA was notified. Read below NHTSA's announcement of the Preliminary Evaluation.
