Today’s auction is for the not so normal Grand Wagoneer. This is the very first year of the Grand Wagoneer nameplate. This is a very well preserved truck and it shows just by looking at it. While I have seen a few 84 Wagoneers listed on eBay but none preserved quite as well as this one. Oh did I forget to tell you this is a 52640 original mile Grand Wagoneer; WOW that’s all that can be said. This Jeep is going to be sold NO reserve and will go to the high bidder. While Nada shows this truck to have a high retail value of 28k we are willing to take offers. The truck is 95 percent original other than the exhaust, ignition and a repaint, and it’s an absolutely stunning example. If you are looking for a nice Jeep we are your east coast source for quality Wagoneers. 
The exterior of this truck is in immaculate condition. The brand new Cinnamon Metallic paint is very explosive in the right lighting. The 3M Di-Noc vinyl wood grain is new and the wood trim is an aftermarket replacement kit. It looks great and so few would know that this is an 84 model. The weather stripping and rubber moldings were all replaced about five years ago. When the truck was painted new gaskets were used at the handles and mirrors and roof rack. The wheels are the correct wheels and are in better than driver condition and appear as those of a 50k mile truck. The correct size whitewall tires have only a hundred miles or so of wear on them.  There is absolutely no rust on this Jeep. It also has the factory hitch on it. The front end of this Jeep still retains the factory grill and Marchal 850 series fog lights. A truck like this one is a rare find and when you find one as nice as this one believe me they will be asking 30k plus. 
The interior of this one is the rarer of the two colors offered in 1984. This is the 5BL code, which is Nutmeg leather buckets. The seats as well as all of the carpets are the original items that came with the truck the day it rolled out of the Toledo plant. The drivers seat has only minor wear but no rips or tears. The carpets are still nice and stain free and standing tall like the ultra plush carpet did on these Jeeps. The Nutmeg rear cargo cover is still present and still retracts as it should. And Yes all the windows work as they should, even the back window works by key as well as dash switch. 
Now on to the mechanicals. We have changed all the fluids and filters and this truck is ready for a ride. The original motor with super low miles is still in place. The distributor has been converted to the Ford style cap and is run by a MSD 6A ignition box for much better reliability. The truck now has 2 1/2 inch exhaust to help the big 360 breath a lot better than it did when factory.
So for the must add part. Please only bid if you plan on following through with your bid. That means ask your spouse, kids, parents, neighbors, and the best yet ask your boss at work before you bid not after. These auctions are very expensive and time consuming. I am a very easy seller to work with as far as storing the vehicle until you make arrangements to pick it up. There will be a 1000 dollar deposit due within 24 hours of auctions completion. The final payment needs to be made within 72 hours. If you have any questions feel free to ask. If you would like to view the truck just contact me. If you would like a Carfax report I will be happy to email you a copy. Just send me your email address so I can mail it to you. If you have less than 15 feedback please send me contact information before bidding. I will be posting pictures tomorrow when the weather permits me to pull in out of the garage.

Marchionne defends FCA recalls, says Wrangler won't be all-aluminum

Fri, May 22 2015

FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne recently received the 2015 Industry Leadership Award from the SAE Foundation. While speaking with the press after the event, the boss discussed his thoughts about some key issues regarding the company's future. One of the big regulatory issues facing FCA at the moment is the upcoming public hearing by the National Highway Traffic Safety into the automaker's handling of 20 recalls. Marchionne has no intention of testifying there, according to The Detroit News. The CEO also thinks that the government regulator is becoming much more aggressive in how it handles safety campaigns, but the Feds aren't necessarily doing a very good job of communicating that. "We need to work with the agency in a very cooperative and open way to make sure that we can meet their requirements for their new stance," he said, according to the newspaper. "We have no option but to comply with their requirements and we will. I have nothing to hide in this process. I just want clear rules." Marchionne also dropped the news that the company has changed its mind about making the next Jeep Wrangler totally from aluminum. "Because of the difference in cost, not just the new material but the actual assembly process, I think we can do almost as well without doing it all-aluminum," he said to The Detroit News. This seemingly opens the door for the model to remain in production in Toledo, OH, but only just a crack. Marchionne says that the new Wrangler would still use a large amount of aluminum, and there are "at least" two sites in contention for the assembly. The company doesn't have too long to make a decision because the model reportedly launches in 2017.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango still catching fire after recall

Thu, May 7 2015

Automakers issue recalls all the time. It's part of the cost of doing business. We just assume that once the recall has been carried out, the problem in question has been fixed. But that's not always the case, as this latest investigation being undertaken by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration goes to show. The problem stems back to a recall issued by Chrysler last summer. It revolved rather the sun visor in the SUVs it makes at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant – specifically, the screw affixing the sun visor could end up rubbing against the wiring for the lamp in the vanity mirror, potentially causing an electrical short and even a fire. 62 such short circuits, 38 fires and three injuries reported, prompting Chrysler to recall nearly 900,000 units of the 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango (over 650,000 of them in the United States). The plastic spacers they installed to rectify the problem, however, may not have done the trick. Eight reports (but none involving injuries) have been filed with the NHTSA regarding the same issue recurring, spurring the government agency to open a new investigation into the matter. If deemed necessary, the NHTSA could ask FCA to issue another recall to fix the issue again, which we may necessitate the installation of a fuze to prevent any such the electric short. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Headliner Fires Date Investigation Opened: MAY 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: RQ15003 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , INTERIOR LIGHTING Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: On July 1st, 2014 Chrysler (FCA US LLC) issued safety recall 14V-391 to remedy a wiring-related fire hazard on the headliner of approximately 661,888 model year (MY) 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured between January 5, 2010 and December 11, 2013. The recall was in response to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) investigation EA14-001 during which data provided by Chrysler indicates that the fire is caused by an electrical short in the vanity lamp wiring for either one of the sun visors mounted on the vehicle. The sun visors are mounted to the roof of the vehicle through the headliner with three metal screws.

WWII Jeep 'found in crate' set to cross Greenwich auction block

Thu, 30 May 2013

Fans of old military vehicles might want to pay extra close attention to the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance coming up this weekend. Crossing the Bonhams auction block on Sunday are a pair of seemingly flawless World War II Jeeps, which are both expected to fetch serious dollars.
Lot Number 305 at the auction is a 1945 Ford GPW Jeep that has been fully restored, which is expected to command between $35,000 and $45,000. Shortly after the Ford GPW, a potentially more interesting 1944 Willys MB (shown above) will be auctioned off, but Hemmings raises some red flags about this Jeep. First, it is claiming to have been "discovered in its original crate about 30 years ago," but there is no proof or documentation of any sort. Also, it is claiming to be all original, but it was given a paint job "shortly after it was discovered." Even with these questionable descriptions, this Willys could reach between $20,000 and $30,000. Head over to Bonhams' site and Hemmings for more information on both WW2-era Jeeps.
