1983 JEEP
WAGONEER LIMITED, ONE OF A KIND EXAMPLE OF A WELL MAINTAINED,
GARAGE KEPT, ONE OWNER WAGONEER IN EXCELLENT SHOWROOM CONDITION!!
With a production run spanning nearly 30 years from 1963 to 1991, the first-generation SJ Jeep Wagoneer was one of the longest-running vehicles in U.S. automotive history. When the Wagoneer was introduced, about the only four-wheel-drive vehicles you could buy were utilitarian with decidedly military roots. This all-new offering from Jeep was designed from the ground up to be comfortable and luxurious -- and was the forefather to the modern luxury SUV. This it was the most car-like 4x4 available and proved quite popular. This example, an exceptionally preserved 1983 Wagoneer Limited, is loaded to the hilt with factory options, including leather upholstery, six-way power seats, power windows, power door locks, air conditioning, leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel, extra-thick carpet, power brakes, power steering, automatic transmission, cruise control, alloy wheels and a roof rack. This vehicle has been meticulously maintained and loved over the years. Best of all, this Jeep has been a Southern California truck all of its life and is as sound as they get, with absolutely no rust! and no leaks. The Dark Navy Blue Metallic paint is glossy like the first day and shows beautifully, the wood grain applique down both sides is original and in very good condition. Clearly this truck has lived its whole life in a garage. Panels are straight with good gaps, chrome, trim and bumpers all excellent. The underside looks incredible. Rust free California vehicle. The original alloy wheels are in like-new condition and are wearing brand new correct white wall tires. It's hard to believe this truck's interior, a warm saddle color leather is 30 years old. The upholstery, carpet and door panels are all original and look brand new. The woodgrain trim on the dash and horn pad is in perfect condition. This Wagoneer still has its original stereo system -- in perfect condition, of course. Even the seatbelt retractors work as they should, and the belts themselves are showing little, if any, wear. Under the hood is an AMC 360 cubic inch V8 mated to a smooth-shifting automatic transmission. And since it's a Jeep, it has the Selec-Trac four-wheel-drive system, which allows the driver to select either high or low range with the flip of a switch on the dash. And in keeping with its luxury appointments, this 4x4 has self-locking front hubs. With only 148,000 original miles, this Jeep is barely broken in. In short, it's one of the best-preserved classic Wagoneer's around. It is being sold on a clean & clear California title. This is a great SUV that will make the perfect toy for a collector or to take to the mountains, to the beach or just out for a cruise. These vehicles are now classics that are getting increasingly hard to find! Get out and drive!! Please feel free to contact me via phone (858) 733 1030 or email me with any questions! I have a lot more pictures of the interior / exterior / additional vehicle information! History For
the 1980's new luxury editions named Custom Wagoneer and Wagoneer
Brougham were added, and Wagoneer Limited was substantially upgraded
with luxury equipment. Limited buyers got bucket seats with leather
trim, a center armrest, and unique door panels; leather-wrapped steering
wheel; extra thick carpeting; woodgrain overlay on the lower dash; wide
woodgrain side and rear; roofrack; bright drip rail overlay; aluminum
wheels (still 15 x 7); a tire upgrade; various moldings; standard air
conditioning; a retractable cargo cover; power windows and locks;
cruise; tilt wheel; FM stereo; the visibility group; electric remote
control mirrors; bumper guards; six-way power front seats; and a rear
window defogger. The Jeep Wagoneer was the first luxury 4x4, sold and produced through numerous marques from 1963 to 1991. A "sport utility vehicle" (SUV) for decades before the term was even coined, the 4WD Wagoneer saw only minor mechanical changes during its 28-year plus production run, the third longest in U.S. automotive history. Introduced as a successor to the Willys Jeep Station Wagon that
had been built since the end of World War II, the Wagoneer pioneered
the sport utility vehicle concept. In spite of its pickup truck chassis
and boxy shape it was more carlike than any 4x4 on the market. Compared
with offerings from General Motors, International Harvester, and Land Rover—
which were producing utilitarian work-oriented vehicles with spartan
truck-like interiors — the Wagoneer's luxury set it apart. Based on the Jeep SJ platform, the revolutionary Wagoneer sported an advanced overhead cam inline 6 cylinder,
and offered features unheard of at the time in any other mainstream 4WD
vehicle, such as an independent front suspension, power steering, and automatic transmission. From
its introduction in late 1962 as a 1963 model, until its cancellation
in 1991 (or 1992, depending on the source), the Jeep Wagoneer was one of
the few American vehicles that stayed in production for virtually 30
years. The Wag even managed to remain evergreen during its entire long
run. The Wagoneer made its debut seven years before Land Rover launched its Range Rover in Great Britain, and 24 years before that upscale marque appeared in the United States. It was succeeded by the Jeep Grand Cherokee. |

What will Detroit do with the abandoned AMC headquarters?
Mon, Dec 28 2015As with so many other industrial and residential properties in Detroit, the former headquarters for the American Motors Corporation is having a hard time finding a reputable buyer. In October the Wayne County Treasurer held a tax foreclosure auction of 25,000 properties that included the AMC building, the starting bid being $500. Nicholas Casab won the building for $500, but the county voided the sale when Casab didn't pay the $232,000 in back property taxes. Detroit authorities haven't commented on the failed sale, but the city has until January 4 to decide if it wants to keep the building. If it doesn't want to hold onto it, the 1.5-million-square-foot property on 57 acres might be ceded to the Wayne County Land Bank Corporation. No matter who holds the deed come January 5, all anyone really wants is for someone to take possession of the building who will actually turn it into something useful and viable. The property opened in 1927 as a factory for the Kelvinator Corporation. Over the following decades, Kelvinator merged with the Nash Motor Company, and that merged entity merged with Hudson Motor Car Co, becoming American Motors. Chrysler took over the building in 1987 when it bought AMC, then shuttered it in 2009. The complex has produced refrigerators, Sikorsky helicopters, Jeeps, AMCs, and was used as an engineering center for Jeeps and other Chrysler products. Having been through several hands in the past six years, it is cited as part of the cycle of abandonment plaguing Detroit.

We drive the cars of Furious 7... in Forza Horizon 2 [w/video]
Thu, Apr 9 2015On March 27, Turn 10 Studios, the folks behind the Forza Motorsport series, and Universal Pictures, the studio responsible for the Fast and Furious franchise, gave us a match made in heaven, announcing a "standalone expansion" featuring the two franchises. Called Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast and Furious, it features the cars from the latest film installment, unique missions and the voice-acting of Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, who plays tech guru Tej Parker on camera. A Fast and Furious video game? Seems like a no brainer. It gets better. Rather than limiting the Fast and Furious Edition cars to the expansion game, Turn 10 made them available through one of their (some may say notorious) downloadable content packages. Eight of the expansion's 11 cars were made available for just $4.99 (the only cars that weren't included were the Fast and Furious Edition Nissan GT-R, while the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and McLaren P1 are already available in-game). What's cool ais that the cars featured in both games are visually identical to the vehicles driven by the stars of Furious 7. Each in-game car has an on-screen parallel that plays a role in advancing the film's story. Considering that we're unlikely to score seat time in Dominic Toretto's real Dodge Charger, then, we figured we'd take to the game and test the car in the digital realm. We've got nine little cluster reviews, covering the cars both in the game and how they appear in the movies. And don't worry, there are no major spoilers here. Click on for the cars of Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast and Furious. 1970 Dodge Charger R/T Fast and Furious Edition Supercharged 7.2L V8 / 900 HP / 663 LB-FT The one vehicle that is mandatory in a Fast and Furious video game, Dom's hot-rodded 1970 Dodge Charger, is as much a character in the films as its driver. Furious 7 marks the fourth appearance of this Mopar beast in the series. Not surprisingly it's a handful to drive, wildly quick and with a four-speed transmission packed full of very tall gears. But beyond that, it's arguably the coolest of the FF Edition cars. This black beauty is exactly as it appears in the latest installment of the film, with the video game version featuring intricate little details, like the moving parts on the BDS supercharger. It's an iconic car, and it's treated as such in the game.
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.
