Here is your chance to get a good deal on a great classic car that is seeing more demand every day.  It has been in the family for a couple years now, and is my third one of these Wagoneers-but it isnt getting driven, and if you are aware of what not driving a carburetor fed 360 does to it you will know why I am selling it...they need to be driven at least weekly-and I just have too many cars here to do that, so I am selling this one and the truck I have listed.


So here is the good, the bad and the ugly:

The good-
Nearly new tires, probably less than 1k miles on them.
Rebuilt engine added 2 years ago and have receipt for the 1700.00 engine and work to replace it.
New Power Steering pump this past year.
Good strong runner, reliable and heavy duty SUV made of STEEL, not plastic.
Window in back gate works well (Rare)-as do all but the drivers window-more on that in the bad section.
Seats are all leather and UNTORN (Rare).
Glass is all in good shape.
Dash is in good shape
Air conditioning works-not great, but I have never charged it either.
Body is straight and relatively rust free-having been in Texas for a few years now.  Exceptions are rust I will detail in nest section and dented rear quarter that occurred in parking lot last year-bang and run.
Headliner in good shape
Faux wood trim and racks in good shape for their age

The bad-
This one has some body rust, and I have a pic of the worst spot-to restore or stop the rot will take someone with bodywork skills-and that goes with the next item
There is a picture of the quarter with the body damage.  Damned shame the person hit me because the body was ULTRA straight till that happened, other than the rust spot I have a pic of here as well.  Door still shuts and locks, but that quarter needs a pro to work it out.
The 4WD worked reliably for years, then just stopped.  Nothing happens when I hit the switch now, no indicator and no 4WD engage.  I am going to have a local mechanic look at it this week.  I will update listing with diagnosis.
The Drivers window doesnt work-I took the door apart, and its the white nylon toothed strip that draws it up and down broken where it attaches-motor still strong, frame and mechanics all good-just needs that strip replaced and good as new.
Passenger door armrest is off in picture from where I looked at it to compare the window workings-I will put it back on this week.  This door window is perfect.
Power locks are all in need of some WD40 and little care to work well-all work, just not strong enough.
Carpet is in bad shape in a few places as you can see in the pix, but its original and 98% is in good repair.  

The ugly-
It needs a wash and detail, the carpets will clean ALOT more, I spent 15 minutes on it with a shopvac is all-and I hope I get more time to clean it and detail it a bit so you can see how good the condition of the interior is.  I will wash the xterior as well, as it looks pretty dull and needs it but its raining here tomorrow and I wanted to get it online to get things started.

Paypal deposit of 500.00 within 24 hours, balance in cashiers check, cash or money order ONLY to pick it up.  I have clear title in hand, and am listing this with a reserve at the same exact amount I paid for it-even thought I have nearly 4k added with the engine and tires I bought.

Watch this listing for updates as I get it cleaner and get the 4WD diagnosed.

Thanks!

Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below.

Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.
