Negaunee, Michigan, United States

 Here is a barn fresh 46 Willys just out of long term storage. I was told  it was restored by the previous owner in the late 70s or early 80s then used some before being stored away in a barn. I dont know a lot about these Jeeps and will describe it the best I can. It runs and drives nice. The body is all steel nice and straight with no rot anywhere. Someone told me it may be a replacement body. The top is a Best Top brand with no rips or tears. Doors and windows are in great shape also. The seats are in excellent condition with no rips,tears or wear. They flip up for access to the rear compartment. All the gauges, windshield wipers and horn are in working order although the horn button is missing. It also has turn signals added. The 4 cylinder engine runs excellent with no noise or smoke. It has an electric fuel pump and the electrical system has been converted to 12 volt. The trans shifts smooth and the clutch doesnt slip or chatter, all 4wd components are working as they should. The brakes work fine and hold pressure and all lines appear solid and rust free. There are small oil leaks from seals evident here and there in the drivetrain not serious but I feel I should mention. The exhaust is solid all the way back with the exception of the tailpipe which is missing. The frame looks solid with the exception of a section in the back just before the rear bumper on the drivers side that will need repair. Not structural. I have shown this in the pics. It doesnt look like it would be too difficult to repair. The entire Jeep could use a complete cleaning , detailing, and general maintenance as it still has all the dust/dirt accumulated from long term storage. I am listing this Jeep for my brother and tried to describe it the best I can. If  you have any questions please ask and I will answer if I can or if you would like to talk to my brother I can forward his number to you so you can speak directly to him.

Jeep Wrangler Polar is a tasty frozen treat

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

Perhaps it's because we've seen so many kitted-out examples over the years, but it seems to us that the Jeep Wrangler tends to wear its special-edition duds better than most models. It might be the icon's familiar rectilinear proportions or the inherent bolt-on look of its extremities - bumpers, mirrors, lighting, and step rails - but we've seen precious few factory specials that look anything but excellent.
Case in point: this new Jeep Wrangler Polar unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This European-market limited-edition model is said to be a celebration of winter driving, which evidently works out to a body-color hardtop, black-accent seven-slot grille, 18-inch gloss black wheels, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and a hard hat for the spare tire. Finished here in Hydro Blue (Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are also available) and a black interior with Polar White accents, the Polar edition features badges displaying 78° S and 106° E longitude and latitude coordinates for Vostok, Antarctica.
This new Jeep will be available in both standard and Unlimited formats with either the 3.6-liter Pentastar gas engine or the still-not-for-US 2.8-liter turbodiesel when it bows early next year. For further details, check out our gallery above and the press release below.

Chrysler recalling hundreds of thousands of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander SUVs

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

The public might associated ignition switch recalls with General Motors - and with good cause - but that's not the only automaker calling its vehicles back in to fix that sort of issue.
Last month we reported that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was investigating an array of Chrysler Group vehicles for electrical-related safety issues. The administration and Chrysler subsequently issued a recall for 700,000 Dodge Journey crossovers, Dodge Grand Caravan minivans and Chrysler Town & Country minivans. But while the Jeeps that were also under investigation were not covered in that recall, they are being addressed in a separate one now.
Although Chrysler reports that it is only aware of a single accident stemming from this issue, it is "committing now to conduct a recall out of an abundance of caution." The recall affects the 2006-2007 Jeep Commander and 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, of which it reports there are 792,300 on the road: 649,900 in the United States, 28,800 in Canada, 12,800 in Mexico and a further 100,800 outside of North America.

Jeep Grand Cherokee in headliner fire probe

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching an investigation into 146,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2012 model year, The Detroit News reports. This comes as the result of the government safety agency receiving three complaints from owners who cited fires inside the Jeep's cabin.
According to the report, NHTSA says:
"The customers reported a burning odor and visible smoke coming from the headliner while the vehicle was being driven. This was followed by flames from the headliner itself. Customers lowered the windows in an effort to clear the smoke but this increased the fire's intensity. All three vehicles had to be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or by the fire department as they continued to burn after the vehicle was turned off."
