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. |

Jeep brings quartet of concepts to Beijing to show its Chinese style
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Jeep is making a big play for the Chinese crossover market at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show. It has a quartet styling concepts for the Renegade, Cherokee and Wrangler that are inspired by Chinese culture at the show.
Among them is the newest member of the Jeep lineup - the Renegade. Its Zi You Xia concept (pictured above) comes from the Mandarin for "rebel," and it's painted in Warm Chocolate Gray with Dark Anodized Bronze trim, including the 20-inch wheels. The roof, grille surround, and mirror caps are done in a complimentary Dark Charcoal color as an accent. The interior is a mix of dark brown leather and Anodized Copper trim. This is one swanky compact crossover.
The Cherokee Sageland and Urbane concepts are meant to show to different sides of Chinese style. With inspiration from the Shangri-La Region, the Sageland has Ivory Pearl tri-coat paint with bronze trim on the outside, and the interior is covered in Gray Nappa leather with red and blue stitching. The Urbane's look comes from the nightlife in the country's cities. The exterior is a color called Maximum Steel with Hyper Black trim. Inside, it combines Piano Black trim with dark red leather seats.
This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island
Thu, 19 Dec 2013So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).
2014 Jeep Cherokee
Thu, 19 Sep 2013The Cherokee Is Dead. Long Live The Cherokee.
There are three sentences that, for this reviewer, define what needs to be conveyed about the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The first: it is very good.
Jeep spent 27 years building the Cherokee and its brand, from 1974 to 2001. Twelve years ago, the Cherokee nameplate rolled away into the distant hills and retirement, at least here in the NAFTA colonies, and it was replaced by a loaded word we knew as "Liberty."
