1973 Wagoneer with Quadra-Trac full time four-wheel-drive, the odometer reads 13,XXX miles and I can not be sure how many times it has turned over in 40+ years.  This wagon has a 360 ci V8, factory air conditioning (needs to be charged),and a power rear window that does work with help.  The underside and frame are clean and free from rot.  The photographs show any areas that need attention on both the interior as well as the exterior but here is a list:

  • The rocker panels have holes
  • The right fender has a tear
  • the tailgate has a small hole next to the dealer sticker
  • The carpet is worn through in the front
  • The inset upholstery is getting tread bare on the heavily used areas of the seats
  • The headliner is starting to come loose in the cargo area
  • The windshield is cracked

There is surface rust on the flat surfaces of this vehicle but it is not rotted through, it is more of a "patina" some might say.  There does not appear to be any filler in the body, all of the chrome and stainless bumpers, emblems, and trim are in great, rust-free condition and all there.  This Jeep starts, runs, shifts, and drives great, it is a pleasure to drive and is dependable as an every day vehicle.  This would provide an excellent foundation for a restoration or can be driven in its original state.  I believe that I have listed everything to the best of my knowledge, please ask questions and I will provide additional photographs if requested.

This is an as-is no reserve auction, the buyer is responsible for shipping/transportation.  This is a 40+ year old vehicle that has not been restored, please look carefully and ask questions.  Should there be winning bid, please contact me within 24 hours of the auction's end to make arrangements, I am willing to work with anyone on the details.

Hands on with the concepts of the Moab Easter Jeep Safari

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Jeep has a way of tugging at the heartstrings of its enthusiastic owner base when the annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari rolls around. The 2015 version sees all boxes ticked in the off-road event's 49th year: multiple diesel engines on display, a pickup-truck-like model and more than a few nods to the brand's long and storied history book. We were able to get a first-hand look at the seven concepts being shown in Utah's Red Desert in the much cooler, cleaner confines of the FCA Technical Center's Design Dome. Jeep Chief Concept We aren't sure if it's that throwback chrome grille or the eye-catching Ocean Blue paint, but even more than the Red Rock Responder, the Chief drew our eye as soon as we walked into the Design Dome. It's a surprisingly tall vehicle, but it's also very wide. We'd also wager it's longer than your typical four-door Wrangler. Jeep may have used a Wrangler as a base for the Chief, but any similarities to the donor vehicle are extremely difficult to spot. The fenders and doors are probably the biggest giveaways, but you're going to need to squint (and have the benefit of a Wrangler to compare with, like we did) to pick out Wrangler bits. As is the recurring theme throughout all seven concepts, the Jeep design team's attention to detail is borderline fanatical. From the "Surf Rated" badge on the fenders, to the tweaked door handles to the bumper stickers in the cargo area and the Tiki-statue-shaped shifter, the little details are truly the stars of the Chief Concept. The rosewood trim in the rear cargo area is stunning and adds to the Beach-Boy-friendly stylings of the Chief. The throwback grille, round headlights and tall, skinny taillights, meanwhile, add a lot of personality to the exterior. The high beltline and lower roof gives the Chief a chop-topped look, but it's arguably the least successful element to the blue concept's otherwise impressive design. All of the vehicles Jeep put together for Moab are 100-percent functional. That's not surprising with some of the vehicles you'll see below, but it somehow is remarkably impressive given the degree of the changes Jeep made in putting together the Chief. Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder The Wrangler-based Red Rock Responder is arguably one of the most capable of these real-world vehicles, both in terms of the way it looks and its actual hardware. We mentioned the special rescue equipment fitted to the bright-red, truck-like Jeep – a compressor and air gun, sockets, tow straps, etc.

2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee recalled for wiring harness

Sat, May 14 2016

The Basics: Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling an estimated 32,267 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee models in the US over a wiring harness terminal that can lose its electrical connection. The Problem: An improperly crimped wiring harness may cause the vehicle's shifter to become locked in Park or Neutral once the vehicle is brought to a stop. Injuries/Deaths: None that FCA is aware of. If you own one: FCA suggests owners use their parking brakes when exiting the vehicle. Affected customers will be notified when they may schedule service. More information: An additional 2,095 vehicles in Canada, 538 in Mexico, and 2,472 outside the NAFTA region are also affected by this recall. Questions? Call the FCA US Customer Care Center at 1-800-853-1403. Related Video: Recalls Jeep Safety SUV

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
