Excellent Mechanical Condition. Brand New Howell Tbi Fuel Injection. on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
You are bidding on an excellent, rust-free and very
well-maintained '76 Wagoneer in un-restored, good running condition. It
is factory equipped with the famed AMC 401 V8 engine, the TH400 transmission
and Borg Warner Quadra-Trac transfer case. I purchased it from the prior
owner in Bend, Oregon
and drove it down to Los Angeles
over a year ago with the intention of restoring it and upgrading and modifying
it to a more modern condition. We've spent the past year working on making it a mechanically sound and reliable daily driver - which we've
accomplished.
Good Stuff and Extras: Jeep alloy rims with hubs. Working electric rear window. Original and fully functional roof rack. Full size spare. Tires have plenty of remaining tread. We worked a lot to stop any fluid leaks. It's now 90% leak-free, although there is a slow and tiny oil leak. Everything on the dash is fully functional (except for the clock). Carpet is relatively new. Repair manuals, including factory service manual. I also have the original front bench seat and many extra parts that the prior owner had sourced (e.g., extra instrument panel, door panels). Known Issues: As an original condition vehicle, a bidder should understand that it is not without it's flaws and that there are further improvements which can be made. It's a work in progress. We started by making improvements and repairs to the drivetrain. The paint is in its original condition, and is faded has a healthy patina. There is no rust damage. There are minimal and insignificant amounts of surface rust on the hood and roof where the paint is diminished. The car needs a headliner (see photo). We treated the bare metal on the inside of the roof with Aluthane aluminum paint to stop any surface rust. The door panels need restoration. No radio or sound system. No AC. Overall: This is a great rig for the right buyer - someone with
a passion for these muscly, even beastly, American classics and who's
interested in either a clean daily driver or something to restore and
modify. I've enjoyed working on it, but have decided to switch my focus
to an 80's 4x4 project (so, I need the funds). I'm certain that I've
invested more money in this car than I'll get back from its sale. So, the
winning bidder will definitely start out with a lot of value for their money. |

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.

Vile Gossip: My Jeep Wrangler dreams
Fri, Jan 5 2018Jean Jennings has been writing about cars for more than 30 years, after stints as a taxicab driver and as a mechanic in the Chrysler Proving Grounds Impact Lab. She was a staff writer at Car and Driver magazine, the first executive editor and former president and editor-in-chief of Automobile Magazine, the founder of the blog Jean Knows Cars and former automotive correspondent for Good Morning America. She has lifetime awards from both the Motor Press Guild and the New England Motor Press Association. Look for more Vile Gossip columns in the future.The new 2018 Jeep Wrangler's model designation is JL, my original initials, as in Jean Lienert. Don't Google that. You'll find I died in 2014 in Pittsburgh at age 85. I take this JL thing as a sign from God that I am supposed to finally buy a new Wrangler, the very first car of my dreams when my dreams included saving $25,000 and living off the grid in a one-room log cabin with all of my cast iron pots and pans. I did live in a tiny log cabin once, but when I discovered there was no line for phone, fax and printer, I trudged down the dirt road a half mile, knocked on a stranger's door and borrowed their phone to call AT&T. So much for living off the grid. And so much for the Wrangler. I bought a truck, which was useful, but it was not a Jeep, a fact confirmed when I landed a job writing about cars. Among the Porsches and Fords and Ferraris and Dodge Power Wagons were Jeep Wranglers. Wranglers meant adventure. Here are two favorites:1981 — Delivering the Pig of Bronze, Car and Driver's over-accessorized 1978 project Jeep CJ-7 (named for its chrome hood ornament), to the police chief of rural Waterloo, Neb. He got it because he wrote the editor a letter asking for it. It was my assignment to drive it there. I plotted as many miles of dirt roads as possible between Michigan and Nebraska, not wanting to waste my first big Jeep adventure on pavement and never questioning the ability of this denim-trimmed orange Jeep and its aftermarket aluminum wheels to get us there.So naive. Somewhere in deepest Iowa with the windshield flipped down to the hood for maximum coolness, the Pig's rear end began to shudder. As we rolled to a stop, the photographer looked back in time to see one of the five fancy extra-long chrome lug nuts plop into the dust. Two others had vanished. The last two had backed off to the ends of their studs.
