1971 Jeep Willys Cj5 Cj Fiberglass Body 4.3 Chevy V6 Muncie 4 Speed Project on 2040-cars
Charleston, West Virginia, United States

You are bidding on a 1971 Jeep CJ5 Project. The trailer shown in the pictures is not included. I purchased this with hopes of completing it as a fun toy. Unfortunately I have lost the storage space that I planned on using and rather than letting it sit I would rather it go to someone that can finish it. Now about the Jeep..... Frame/Chassis: This project is a combination of a number of different parts. The frame appears very solid. A former owner had done a nice job of cleaning and painting it. There are a few spots that need repainted but overall very solid. The original springs were swapped for some newer (and slightly longer) Jeep springs which should give it a better ride. The front end has a shackle reversal which should allow it to handle better. The previous owner also has mounted a Saginaw power steering box. Personally I would trim some of the excess steel away from the mount. I also have a stock cast iron Saginaw box mount that I will include. I purchased the Jeep without a steering column but I include a steering column and wheel from another Jeep that I parted out. You will need to come up with a shaft from the column to the box but those are relatively common and inexpensive. Body: The body tub and fenders are fiberglass. The hood, grille and windshield frame are steel. The tub was made by 4WD Hardware which from what I understand they made good bodies. The steel parts are in good condition and the windshield glass is nice. Although not shown, I purchased a used gas tank that looks to be in good shape. I also have the metal surrounding piece for the tank inlet and a new rubber gasket. I do not have any seats for this project. I have two radiators that I think can be made to work. One is new and the other is an older used radiator from Ford Mustang that looks good. For the most part you will need to wire this Jeep and you will need to purchase a speedometer. Since it came to me without a speedometer I listed the milage at 99,999. Drivetrain: The Jeep was converted to a Chevy V6 (not sure but I believe it to be a 4.3) and Muncie 4 speed conected to a Dana 20 transfercase via a Novak adapter. These adapters typically sell for about $600.00. The motor is locked and does not have a starter, distributor or flywheel. It looks like its purpose was to mock up the mounts and such. My plan was to pick up another running V6 (typically about $300 to $400 around here) or possibly a V8. Since the motor does run I could not test the transmission but it seems to shift nice. In addition to the Model 20 transfercase that is currently attached, I also have another Model 20 transfercase that looks pretty good and since I have no plans for it I will include it in the deal. The Jeep came to me without driveshafts but I have a couple from another Jeep project that might work and I will throw them in. There currently is no exhaust. There is a pedal assembly that came with the Jeep. It is the dual chamber style. I have a brand new mastercylinder that I will include. The rear axle is a 4.27 ratio. I did not pull the front cover but I will assume it has the same ratio. Tires/Wheels: The tires are LT325 BF Goodrich. They are a few years old but I don't think they were driven much if at all. Roll bar / Roll cage: It is not shown but I have a roll bar from another jeep that I will thow in. I also have the front bars to a roll cage that I will include in case you would like to weld them on and make a roll cage. The roll bar and cage parts have some surface rust. They will need cleaned and painted but they are solid. Personally I think this project has a lot of potential and would make a nice ride when finished but keep in mind that it is a project and still requires some work and some parts with the motor being the biggest issue. This is not something that you will have finished in a weekend. I am sure that I have missed something and I would be more than happy to discuss this with you. Please email me through the Ebay "Ask a Question" system or call me via my cell (304-951-7375). A $200 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours after the close of the auction. The balance within 2 weeks via cash or certified check. I am happy to store the Jeep for up to 30 days (unless other arrangements are made prior to the end of the auction). Vehicle will not be released and title will not be transferred until full payment has been made. The Jeep is located in Charleston, WV.

Stellantis will give its brands 10 years to prove they deserve to live
Thu, May 13 2021Formed by the merger of PSA Peugeot-Citroen and Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles, Stellantis has 14 brands under its roof, a number that makes it one of the largest groups in the industry. Rumors claimed not every brand would survive, with Chrysler often earmarked to get axed, but the firm said it will give them all a chance to shine. "We're giving each (brand) a chance, giving each a time window of 10 years and giving funding for 10 years to do a core model strategy. The CEOs need to be clear in brand promise, customers, targets, and brand communications," announced Stellantis boss Carlos Tavares during the Financial Times' Future of the Car event. His comments confirm Chrysler fans and dealers don't need to worry about the future — at least not yet. And, against all odds, Lancia enthusiasts can breathe a sigh of relief, too. Former FCA head Sergio Marchionne warned of the brand's demise on several occasions. Alfa Romeo is safe for now, too, as is Vauxhall, which are basically just Opels sold in the United Kingdom with a different badge. The engagement made by Tavares also means Stellantis won't divest any of its brands to raise capital until at least 2031. It's now up to each executive team to make a case for the brand they run, an unusual survival-of-the-fittest strategy in an era when cutting costs is more common than spending cash. Diving into the vast Stellantis parts bin should help even the most troubled brands turn their fortunes around on a relatively tight budget. It seems likely that survive Chrysler will need to look beyond the 300 and the Pacifica/Voyager, the only models in its range, and completely reinvent its image, which is currently nebulous at best. Lancia, once the champion of luxury, performance, and innovation, faces the same challenge. It's not starting quite from scratch, it's relatively popular in its home country of Italy, but it will need to think globally and expand outside of the city car segment to survive.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Jeep launches new ad with unreleased Michael Jackson track
Fri, 09 May 2014We've recently heard much about how Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne plans to pump up the volume on Jeep sales, inaugurating new models and global dealerships. But that's the stuff outlined in five-year plans; right now, advertising and special editions are at the fore, and the late Michael Jackson, too. Jeep has begun airing two commercials to push its Altitude Editions, Call of Summer and Lovers of the Game, that feature the song "Love Never Felt So Good" from Jackson's upcoming album of new music.
A little more star power - and timely, too - comes from Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving. While Call of Summer features a few short shots of the former Rookie of the Year and two-time NBA All-Star, Lovers of the Game is all about his white Wrangler Altitude Edition and wrangling shots. You can watch both spots below, and if you want to hear the rest of the music track before the album hits, you can download it from iTunes.
